Dr. Jay
Dr. Walker, Jr., better known as “Dr. Jay”, joined his dad in the practice in 1984 after earning his orthodontic degree from the University of Tennessee (Memphis). He is an alumnus of the Donoho School (Class of ’75), The University of Alabama (Class of ’79), and the School of Dentistry at UAB (Class of ’82). He is certified by the American Board of Orthodontics, the sole specialty board for orthodontics recognized by the American Dental Association.
Dr. Carl
Dr. Carl Walker, Dr. Jay’s “little” brother, no longer sees patients in Gadsden. He continues to see his Birmingham area patients at Dr. Joby Hurst’s pediatric dental office in the Inverness neighborhood of Birmingham.
Pat
Pat is the senior staff member, having joined Dr. Walker, Sr., in … well, let’s just say before Dr. Jay joined the practice. Primarily working in our Anniston office, you may find her at the patient chair, in the lab, or behind the front desk, always with a smile. When she is not helping the Walkers she is taking care of her husband, Larry, and her grandbabies. Pat also enjoys relaxing at Lake Wedowee and the beach, and searching for shopping bargains.
Suzanne
The front desk of our Gadsden office is administered by Suzanne. A native of Rainbow City and a Southside HS grad, Suzanne now lives in Hokes Bluff. She and her husband, David, have a son, Josh, and a daughter, Erin.
Beckie
Beckie has recently rejoined our staff after working for a few years at another orthodontic practice. A graduate of Etowah County, she now lives in Southside with her husband, Jason, and two children. Her earliest experience with us, though, was as a patient, referred to us by her husband, Jason, who was also a patient as a teen. After her teeth were straightened she was hired by us for front desk duties, then moved to chairside assistant. Away from the office she stays busy with her kids’ activities. Beckie is a diehard Auburn football fan, which sometimes creates conflicts with Dr. Jay and Dr. Carl.
Chere
The Anniston office is administered by Chere’. She is a native of the Tampa Bay area of Florida, but has lived in many locales compliments of the military. She and her husband, Anthony, came to our area as part of the Depot nerve gas incineration project. They like us so much, they stayed!
