Accepting New Patients

What I Do

I focus my care on three different aspects, evidence-based data and science-driven care, shared decision-making and prevention. The relationship between a physician and patient is paramount. I like to have a conversation to discuss different options to get to a mutual agreement and comfortability on the plan of care. I love to help people live to their fullest self, which is why I think preventive medicine is so important because it can catch something before it becomes debilitating or deadly.

My clinical interests include preventive medicine, diabetes and infectious disease. I’ve also completed additional training in transgender and gender-diverse medical care.

Why I Love My Work

What I enjoy most about my work is building relationships with my patients.

Getting to Know Me

My wife and I are very happy to be back close to all our family and friends. We enjoy all seasons of the lakes and what the outdoors has to offer. I enjoy hunting, fishing, ice fishing, and visiting state and national parks. We also look forward to attending SCSU hockey games. Other than hockey, I enjoy football, baseball, golf, and skiing.

    Dr. Walter suggested some treatments that could ease the symptoms, regardless of the cause, and I appreciated that practical work-with-what-you've-got approach.

    This was a follow up visit and a thyroid check. He is keeping an eye on the thyroid as it was a little off.

    He is an exemplary physician. It's rare to find someone of his quality these days. I have always disliked going to the doctor. In the past other physicians in your organization have dismissed my concerns and made me feel like I don't know my own body. Dr. Walter listens, understands, and validates my concerns. I have recommended him to family and friends.

    It's hard to say something negative about a provider, but I'm switching doctors. This doctor seem to need to be simply uninterested in me.

    My doctor is very soft spoken and I appreciate how he keeps the visits to a short and sweet.
