Dr. Walter was my neurosurgeon for the removal of a falcine meningioma in October of 2015.

He and his office staff are professional, walking you through each step of the process, and take enough time to answer questions and listen to concerns.  He was punctual for appointments.  Most important, he removed the entire tumor within two weeks of my diagnosis and was helpful in assisting us to decide whether to elect adjuvant radiation therapy.  

His office staff, including his NP, Jackie Behr , were very responsive to my concerns.
