Jessica Walker, MD
Growing up and Early Career
My hometown of St. Clairsville is a small, rural town in the Appalachian Mountains of eastern Ohio. When I was a child, my mom had me take sewing classes. Once I had the basics down, my grandmother taught me crochet, and pretty soon I taught myself how to quilt…and got pretty good at it! It was always expected that, as the daughter of an attorney, I would follow in my dad’s footsteps and pursue a career in law. I li ...

Felt listened to about all my concerns. Admin staff was always responsive and on point with scheduling and reminders. Dr Walker and her team were especially encouraging and reassuring answering all my questions. The work done was beyond expectations and where adjustments were requested Dr Walker was never dismissive and took action to make sure I was pleased. I couldn't have asked for better. Dr Walker especially (not forgetting the nurses) made me feel like I was a friend and not a patient. That meant a lot to me and made me more comfortable. I feel like I can love my body and be proud instead of embarrassed, especially with my husband for the first time in 30 years.

From the first email to my 6 week follow up, I have been so pleased with Dr. Walker and her amazing team. They are helpful, kind and knowledgeable. Dr. Walker is top notch at her work and I am extremely pleased with my outcome. I love that my "belly apron" is gone! Dr. Walker said it weighed 5lbs.

Dr. Walker is amazing. I've gotten amazing results. She is very informative. Awesome doctor! Laid back and cool. I don't look like I've had three kids. She made me more curvy with a flat stomach.

Everyone was super helpful and nice, made me feel at ease, I have never been through any type of surgery or gone under anesthesia so I was a little nervous but honestly have no recollection of going under and came to with a successful surgery. The entire staff was amazing! There were no complications and everything went smoothly.

About Jessica Walker, MD
Growing up and Early Career
My hometown of St. Clairsville is a small, rural town in the Appalachian Mountains of eastern Ohio. When I was a child, my mom had me take sewing classes. Once I had the basics down, my grandmother taught me crochet, and pretty soon I taught myself how to quilt…and got pretty good at it! It was always expected that, as the daughter of an attorney, I would follow in my dad’s footsteps and pursue a career in law. I liked science, and wanted to look into what was available. After my freshman year in college, I spent time with my hometown general surgeon, and knew I had found my calling! I found a profession where I could use my hands, my mind, and my creativity to help people.
How did I end up in Knoxville?
I met my now husband Dr Josh Walker, a local dentist, while I was completing my Plastic Surgery fellowship in Louisville. I knew from the second date I'd marry him. He was born and raised in Kingston, TN and when he brought me here for the first time I absolutely fell in love with East Tennessee and when deciding where we would end up it was a no brainer. We like to live rural, but enjoy the ease to be in the city within 30 minutes. And Crockett, our German Shepherd, loves the ability to be outside year round.
I chose a career in surgery planning to be a heart surgeon. During my 5-year general residency in Detroit, I had the chance to work with the plastic surgeons in our hospital. After that month with them, my career plans totally changed. I loved everything that went into plastic surgery - the planning, the delicate operations…all of it. And - best of all - when you finished, both you and your patient could look and see how things had changed!
The main population I work with here in Knoxville are moms. Going through fertility treatments, I have learned the changes your body goes through and how difficult it can be on your body to become a mom. Being able to help other moms make changes to improve their self-confidence, their strength and rebuild what was changed during pregnancy and childbirth is the most rewarding aspect of everything that I do.
Being a female surgeon for (mainly) female patients has made my dedication to my career even stronger. Less than 20% of Plastic Surgeons are female, and I think this is truly a benefit to me as I understand a lot of what my patients have gone through, what their concerns are and what their goals are.
I love building relationships with my patients and finding things we have in common to bond over. Yes I'm a surgeon, but I'm also a fun, relatable, "normal" person who is getting on through life like everyone else. I'd love to meet you, be able to help you if I'm the right choice for you, and bond hopefully over German Shepherds, Pittsburgh sports, college football and crafting, and having fun on social media!
