Marilyn Walkey (Functional Medicine)

Marilyn Walkey is a fraud who is practicing without a license, which she had to surrender due to fraudulent activities. She will lead you to extreme financial loss and paranoia with her mold toxicity claims. She will lead you to destroy or leave behind everything that ever mattered to you based on pseudoscience. She pressed me to start living in my car (despite the fact that my apartment tested negative for mold toxicity with two different inspection companies) then exacerbated the trauma with "I hope there's not mold in your car." She's a predator. I had a legitimate injury (being hit by a car with a concussion & whiplash). She convinced me that my REAL problem was mold toxicity. This woman should be in prison. I can't imagine how many people have become bankrupt and suicidal because of her "care."https://omb.oregon.gov/Clients/ORMB/Public/VerificationDetails.aspx?EntityID=1461665

As a mother I searched for answers to my daughters health challenges for 20 years. We never found any solutions, and she learned to push through and pretend she was OK. At 27 and as the lead instructor on a 20 day backpacking trip in CT she got Lyme disease. He body could no longer pretend to hold it together and her health crashed. By the time we found Dr Walkey she was so ill she could barely walk across the room. In the last 5 months Dr Walkey ran her own series of tests and started healing my daughter to rebuild her health. With 40+ years of practicing medicine she has a long list of healing modalities and is willing to dig deep for answers. Tests now show Dr. Walkey's treatment plan has eliminated all of the parasites in my daughters body, and the bacteria has been greatly reduced. My daughter still has healing to do, but I am confident Dr. Walkey will lead her to a stronger healthier body than she has had in over a decade. Dr. Walkey is a true healer. I think she is a genius! I am so grateful to have found her for my daughter. I am happy to report my daughter has started climbing at the rock gym and she tells me she is no longer in pain. I look forward to having my vibrant daughter back and seeing what new doors will open for her in her life thanks to Dr. Walkey. I have written this review with a full heart and I really do not know how to say thank you.

Dr Walkey is a doctor who is truly curious and seeks to understand all aspects of medicine, which allows her to give us practical advance on the major tweaks to improve the overall body. Standard medical care failed us, so much so that I gave up seeing doctors and spent countless hours doing my own research on health, tracking, and experimenting for myself and my children. I figured out custom dietary needs for our family members, relevant herbs/supplements based on body type and symptoms, reduced toxins/EMF, etc. But still, I was stumped with my son's condition. I clearly needed professional guidance, but with whom, since every doctor we've seen to date probably made things worse instead of better. Timing was perfect - a friend referred me to Dr Walkey. With specific lab tests, Dr Walkey identified major issues, in particular, the invisible mold in our belongings. Once she pointed this out, it occurred to me that when I was pregnant with my son, the place we were renting from had a plumbing problem behind our bedroom wall. We never saw inside the wall, but likely, mold was growing, which apparently spreads to all our belongings. After we took Dr Walkey's advice and threw out anything we couldn't wash, my son noticed a shift in the environment that evening and slept better on the floor! In fact, I had mold symptoms and didn't even realize it - my sensitivity to light and bumpy skin patch significantly improved. Addressing chronic health conditions take time, which I understand, so we are still working through her program and look forward to continued health improvements. Note: I noticed that some comments here state that she appears "rude". Honestly, I think what some people see as "rude" is actually her frankness and cut-to-the-chase way of sharing her knowledge and experience. I think it is a breathe of fresh air to talk to such an informed physician. Because of what I know about health today, her approach and style makes complete sense to me. If I had met her a decade earlier, I probably would have a different opinion, because I came from the standard of care model (i.e., give me a pill that should do something for the symptom [not the underlying cause] immediately or at least by a week or two). Now, I know that true and lasting health comes from tweaks to nudge your body in the right direction so that it can course correct itself before the onset of serious diseases.

Oh my goodness, where do I even begin? I think Dr. Marilyn Walkey is the best of the best period! I was blessed to have found her when I was having health challenges. I first reached out to her because I had Achilles tendinitis, a few acupuncture treatments resolved this completely! Dr. Walkey helped me more than any doctor has ever been able to help me with any health concerns. My health improved so much under her care. I can't begin to tell her thank you enough. One thing that always impressed me is that she is always learning and studying to improve her knowledge so she can help her patients in every way possible. I always found her to be a great listener and very compassionate. She is very confident in her practice and has had great results with many many patients who have come to see her and get help resolving their heath issues. I highly recommend her to anyone who has hit a wall with their health and would like to finally see a Doctor who can help. Unfortunately for me, the company I work for only offers Moda Health insurance coverage and it fails to recognize Doctor's like Marilyn who actually help patients get well again. So because of this I haven't been able to see her for acupuncture or anything else. I miss her greatly and miss interacting with her as she is really a neat and special person. I wish the best for her and her practice and I hope if you are in need of some healing for yourself that you will give her a call today! Sincerely, Mark
