Best orthopedic doctor I’ve been to! From him to all of his assistants, I felt comfortable from start to finish. I’d recommend anyone to visit for those minor and major slips, trips and falls! Thanks!

I had an excellent experience. I was able to be scheduled within two days. I got an X-ray, a boot and paper instructions. Everyone was kind and helpful. Even shared what they knew about my possible insurance coverage. I especially appreciate Dr. Walton clarity of treatment plan and firm understanding that this will not be a quick heal.
