In addition to her formal training, Dr. Walker has traveled to various areas of the country and gained invaluable experience in sport horse medicine, mare management and foal care. Although, much of her background is in the equine industry, Dr. Walker is also very experienced in beef cow, dairy cow, goat and even llama medicine. Dr. Walker has returned to West Virginia, deciding that there is truly no place like home!
