About Mike Walker, PA-C

Mr. Mike Walker is a 1973 graduate of the Bowman Gray School of Medicine Physician Assistant Program at Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem, North Carolina.

Mr. Walker's clinical experience includes Family Practice, Internal Medicine and Dermatology. During his tenure with Winston-Salem Health Care, working in the department of Internal Medicine, Mr. Walker accepted a position as Department Manager of Internal Medicine. During this time he returned to Wake Forest University, Babcock Graduate School of Management and obtained a Masters Degree in Business Administration.

He returned to full time clinical medicine in 1998 as a Physician's Assistant in Dermatology, and has subsequently developed the diagnostic and surgical skills needed to be successful in this very specialized area of medicine. To enhance his skills in dermatology, he returned to the academic world and has earned a Masters Degree in Physician Assistant Studies with emphasis in dermatology from the University of Nebraska.
