I saw Dr. Walker today for trigger finger. He was absolutely amazing! He explained what trigger finger was, what causes it and how to treat it. He was eager to treat with a Cortisone injection immediately. His bedside manner was top notch. He made me feel at ease and did an amazing job. I highly recommend him.
