This was the worst experience ever. Dr. Walden did not even listen to what was wrong with me. I KNOW my problems are thyroid related and he just dismissed me like I knew nothing. I have been suffering this for YEARS and have done a ton of research so I know I have a thyroid problem. All he did was look at my lab results and tell me I had low Vitamin D. There is no way that a lack of Vitamin D is causing my problems. And I am paying out of pocket because he is out of network so I just wasted a lot of money. Waste of time. Waste of money. Worthless. Totally worthless.

My primary recommended I make an appt with a certain gastroenterologist. I checked to see if there were any reviews, there were --the reviews were horrible. Out of curiosity I decided to check on other physicians who services I patronized (dermatologist, endocrinologist, etc). I was quite surprised to see that Dr. Walden had received a negative rating. Why? Because I was misdiagnosed twice by two other endocrinologists, by the time I got to Dr. Walden I was a basket case as my condition had only worsened. He explained and helped me understand my illness how best it could be treated. He answered ALL of my questions and there were many. All ratings are opinions, and in my opinion, Dr. Walden is an excellent physician. Therefore, I have decided to keep my appt with the gastro doctor based on the positive recommendation of my primary doctor and a friend who is a patient.

I was very unhappy with the services Dr. Walden provided. Although I waited for nearly a hour to get my results, he was very short and talked more abt the surgery I may have to get instead of waiting on lab results to see if its necessary. I'm not sure why my GP referred me to him. His services are indeed poor and I felt like with the copays and appts, I've wasted nothing but my time.

he was very unaproacable. when asked a question different from what he diagnosed you with then Dr.Waldens aditude is "are you an endocronologist". no other doctors opinions mattered to him. very smug and seemed to have a "god" complex. as if you are not a dr then you are stupid. i'm not a mechanic but i can still fix my car. when i asked about something i had read online ( mayoclinic website) he just said " whatever". he didnt even know that RAI treatment can be dangerous to people around you. Dr waldens reply was only to babies.
