Filthy, unkempt and ridiculously ill-equipped “office.” Staff is friendly but Dr. Walker is a genuine crackpot. Gave me her hour long (not exaggerating) fat shaming manifesto on her personal brand of nutrition unsupported by scientific literature, yet never placed my prescription or lab work. Complete waste of my annual wellcare visit. Seems to care about hard-to-reach immigrant population so I wasn’t going to write a review, but anyone with options deserves to be warned. I can’t even get my prescription without going back to a doctor. Bad joke of a “doctor.”
