Dr. Walton and his team are wonderful! I sought out a second opinion after a not so trust worthy experience with another physician. I am so glad I went with my gut to schedule a visit with Dr. Walton. His team was warm and welcoming. When I met with him, he explained my injury, he was patient and took time explaining my circumstance and recovery time. Most importantly, he didn’t rush to schedule ankle surgery, like the first physician I saw. While fracturing my ankle has been miserable, Dr. Walton was a bright spot in this crazy experience.

Dr. Walton took his time with my son, who is special needs, very patient with him (& me). Explained everything to me so that I would understand what could be going on with his foot.

Dr. Walton was great! He was thorough in his time with me and very competent. I felt like he was unwilling to provide boilerplate answers and solutions, but was willing to look deeply at my foot problem and come up with an overarching strategy. I highly recommend him.
