Holly B. Walker, MSN, FNP-BC

Specialties: Infectious Diseases

Gender: Female

Biography: My name is Holly Walker. I am originally from Lexington, MS but have lived in the Jackson metro area for over twenty years. Growing up in a small town with limited resources and healthcare access helped me to choose my career path of helping others. Initially I chose Social Work, but later switched to a career in Nursing due to the number of wonderful opportunities available with the ability to still do what I love to do, help others. My goal as a provider is to always provide evidence-based, appropriate care to all that I encounter. I will always do my part to help eliminate health disparities and to remove barriers to receiving appropriate care. My hobbies include riding bicycles, traveling, shopping and spending time with family.

My Approach to Healthcare

My approach to healthcare as a provider is to always provide evidence-based, appropriate care to all that I encounter and to treat people with dignity and respect. I will always do my part to help eliminate health disparities, remove barriers to receiving appropriate care, and ensure that patients' needs are met to the best of my ability.
