— Birdeye (Review for Dr. David P. Walker)"This has been some of the worst experiences I've had dealing with health providers. I almost cant believe how dysfunctional this clinic is."
— Healthgrades (Review for UC Davis Neurology Clinic)"I am most frustrated by the inconsistent information we were regularly given and Dr. [...] comments in my medical record. He had never once told me in person he thought any part of my condition was 'psychosomatic'."
