The single greatest psychotherapy teacher I ever had. A wonderful human being who had a great influence on my professional career as a psychiatrist. I never knew of another psychiatrist who could connect with a patient as quickly and with such incredible and empathy as Dr. Walker.

Dr. Walker was among the friendliest and most empathetic people I've ever met. He also had a wonderful sense of humor (and could put on a Jerry Lewis face at a moment's notice). He helped me a great deal and that assistance continues to work its way in the world, with me and undoubtedly many others.

I was a patient of Dr. Walker for many years in the late 1970s. He was an amazing doctor and an incredibly nice and kind person. I was a young woman when he treated me and I am now 74 years old. I still have fond memories of him. He was truly an excellent doctor and a fine human being. May his memory be a blessing.
