Board-Certified Physician Assistant
Education
Luke Walters is a board certified physician assistant, practicing dermatology since 2012. Luke attended the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign as an undergraduate, earning a bachelor’s degree in kinesiology. He then went on to complete his training in physician assistant studies, earning a master’s degree in physician assistant studies at South College in Knoxville, TN.
Luke enjoys treating medical and surgical dermatology, with a focus on acne regimens, psoriasis and eczema management, skin cancer detection with use of dermoscopy, and excisions of benign and malignant lesions in collaboration with the supervising physician. Practicing medicine is a privilege, and permits an opportunity to demonstrate compassion while respecting the dignity of each patient. Luke has spent time in Kenya and Haiti doing medical mission trips. These experiences have fostered his approach with patients, understanding that skin disease can be attached with social stigmas. Stress can also play a role in chronic skin disease.
