The Oncology Center of Central Baltimore offers its patients more than 20 years of academic, clinical and research experience - knowledge that gets results. Dr. Walker began The Oncology Center about eight years ago after leaving Mount Sinai Hospital in Connecticut, where he ran a similar center. He designed The Oncology Center to offer patients the latest advances in cancer medicine combined with care from compassionate, skilled physicians in patient-friendly surroundings.

In keeping with the philosophy of its physicians, The Oncology Center is structured around the patients' needs. A doctor always is on site during patient care to handle problems and deal with patient concerns. Only nurses certified in oncology care administer chemotherapy. And, with the 24-hour opinion service, Dr. Walker has made it a priority to provide second opinions within only one day, even to the newest patients.
