I'm very pleased with Dr. Walker's work, particularly her honesty and experience. Appreciated her recommendations to perform a "natural" degree of eyelid and eye "bag" correction so as to avoid looking too obvious yet the results were amazing! Thank you!
Incredible surgery done by Dr Walker to remove a mole , amazing doctor!

The results of my upper and lower blepharoplasty were just terrific -- truly better than expected. Not only do I look younger but the lack of dropping upper eye lids improve my vision. Dr. Walker's and her staff's professionalism and personal attention made all the difference. As a male I did not think I would ever recommend a plastic surgeon but I would recommend Dr. Walker for any procedure without any reservation.
- Kert
I had a great experience when visiting Dr. Walker. She was very professional and kind. The staff was great as well. Dr. Walker is a fantastic surgeon and I highly recommend her.
Dr. Walker was so great when she took care of me and my arm. I had broken through a double paned, safety glass window and tore my arm down to the bone. I am happy to say that I have full function of my arm, and my friends don't even notice that anything happened.
