Jennie Walker, M.D.
Jennie Walker has been a practicing physician for over 20 years and is currently an Emergency Medicine physician at Mammoth Hospital. Dr. Walker earned her undergraduate degree in Physiological Sciences from UCLA, her medical degree from Chicago Medical School and completed her residency at Kern Medical Center in Bakersfield.
As an Emergency Physician, Dr. Walker frequently cares for patients with multiple chronic diseases. After years of watching these patients continue to get worse, despite standard medical treatments, she felt there must be a better approach. Conventional medicine gives a name to symptoms and then prescribes a pill. Patients rarely heal completely, and frequently need more medication to manage the effects of the original treatment. Dr. Walker believes there is a much better approach to treating disease in Functional Medicine.
Dr. Walker completed her Functional Medicine training through the Kresser Institute’s ADAPT Practitioner Training Program. She is also currently an Institute for Functional Medicine Certified Practitioner.
Dr. Walker is a certified Kresser Institute Adapt Trained Health Practitioner, and an IFM Certified Practitioner.
