Hello, my name is Dr. F. Allen Walker and I am an Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) success story. I have been studying, diagnosing, and treating attention deficit hyperactivity disorder for many many years. Diagnosed at 25 years old, through perseverance and family support my personal struggle with ADHD has gradually evolved into one of success.
More than one in ten adults have been diagnosed with ADHD. Rest assured - you are not alone. At Louisville ADHD, we will help you realize your full potential in a relaxed, judgment-free setting. When people hear "Attention Deficit Disorder, " many times they feel it doesn't describe them. After all, they can focus for hours on things that interest them.
With proper treatment, children with ADHD do remarkably well. In fact, many adolescents and young adults transform the perceived negative attributes that arise from ADHD and turn them into strengths. In almost all cases, people call our office shortly following a moment of crisis. This could be what led you here.
Dr Walker was amazing. He truly understood what my son was feeling and any barriers he had in life. There were issues that my son would only talk to him about. He has a better knowledge of ADHD than any other doctor we have had experience with and there have been many. It's very comforting to know that I can reach out to at anytime.

Excellent practice!! Dr. Walker has been incredible to work with and with his help, my career has taken off. I went without any medication for over a decade and with his help, I was able to find what worked best for me and I cannot thank him enough. I truly believe that I would not be where I am today without his help. He has changed my life.

I went to doctor walker in 2013. I was in high school at the time. I’m just now writing this because I have a healthy therapist now who has actually helped me and I have learned how unhealthy doctor walker truly is. First of all he only wants to hear himself talk. He uses you as a vessel for his own therapy on himself. My parents have said the same thing about him. Because they went into the appointments with me occasionally. I even had a friend see him at the same time as I was. My friend said the same remarks about him. He literally told me he can’t help me till I get on medication. He said

I have known I was ADHD since I was 14. I took medication and went to regular appointments while I was in school and living at home. After taking my first “big girl job”and moving to Louisville, I started hating medication and blamed it for my high level of frustration, irritability and moodiness. I tried a lot of different doctors, at least five, all of them just wanted to talk to me for 10 minutes hand me a prescription and schedule my follow up appointment. Since I already had an ADHD diagnosis, none of them took the time to listen to me, they just wanted to treat my “disorder”. For

I have enjoyed my experience with Dr Walker and his office staff. Kathleen has been extremely helpful and responsive. The team is very good about setting expectations and communicating in advance. For example, about varied hours around holidays. They know how to work with folks that have ADHD and the process is smooth and easy to work with.
In the last 4 months working with Dr Walker I have managed to complete two sections of a basement remodel, we can park in the garage for the first time since we moved in, and I have lost almost 25 lbs. These improvements are directly related to having the proper

I was diagnosed with ADHD as a child but only took medication and then stopped for a while. After nearly failing a few classes in high school my mom reinitiated my medication regiment (much to my disliking). My grades started to get much better; but there were some things with which I still struggled. Fast forward a few years, I graduated from UK with a finance degree and got into law school. I am currently in my 3rd year of law school and clerking. I noticed for the extent of my day (15-18 hours) my medication was not working nor did I have the tools to organize my day. I sought the help of Dr

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Walker’s for 3 years. In those 3 years my life has seen dramatic, traumatic, and truly wonderful changes. It is no exaseration on my part that without the guidance and care of Dr. Walker I would never have found the strength, willingness, and confidence to face my challenges with a sense of calm, acceptance, and personal responsibility.
The combination of medication and talk therapy helped me to understand that my natural state of ADHD can be, and has been, under control to such a positive and sustainable level that my personal relationships have improved to include

I have seen Dr. Walker for well over a year now. He has walked me through some difficult times and have witnessed 180 degree breakthrough. Even though it’s been over a year we continue to work on different types of strategies. Dr. Walker is one of the best psychologist I have had the privilege on working with. He does his own psychotherapy, own medication reviews, management etc. What a few people don’t seem to understand is that when you walk into a regular practice that accepts insurance there are multiple roles, multiple fees and you may see your MD for 5-10 minutes. You have a whole other

I was a patient of Dr. Walker for many years. My work with him improved my life significantly. I was diagnosed with depression and anxiety as a teenager but wasn’t diagnosed with ADHD until I was an adult (though, in hindsight, I had ADHD all of my life). Initially, my ADHD was managed by primary care providers and psychiatrists who focused on medications. It helped some but I continued to struggle. Dr. Walker was the first doctor to emphasize the need for behavioral changes and organizational skills to manage my life. He guides the process but there is much work to do outside of the sessions

I have been dr. Walker’s patient for over 2 years. Not only because of his expertise in ADHD/ADD but also his ability to make you feel comfortable. His guidance on overall mental health really set him apart from other doctors I’ve seen. He takes time to get to know you and your lifestyle. Would not consider changing doctors.

This is the real deal right here if you have ADD/ADHD. Dr. Walker is so fantastic and he truly understands what life is like when struggling with ADHD. This guy gets it!!
I had been looking for a psychiatrist who specialized in this particular field since it is something I struggled with for a while. When doing my research I came across Dr. Walker and found out he had a similar educational background as myself as well as living with ADHD too.
Making an appointment was extremely easy. I sent an email and received a response from their office admin, Kathleen. The office is a little different than
