Patient Reviews
Feb 09, 2022
My husband has been to see him 3 times, and each time we have been very happy. He reviewed my husbands history and knew all about these problems and then addressed our concerns. He listens well, explains well and has a very good bedside manner. I would highly recommend Dr. James Walter and we didn't mind traveling about an hour in order to see him in Philly. We think he is tops!
