Dr. Mark Walker's Bio and Credentials
Dr. Mark Walker’s unique blend of skill, experience, and refractive surgery training offers LasikPlus patients unparalleled expertise in laser eye surgery. Dr. Walker is the only surgeon in the Pacific Northwest with the advanced academic accomplishment of completing a Fellowship in Refractive Surgery who is dedicated solely to LASIK surgery. This expertise is combined with over ten years of clinical directorship and the performance of more than 97,000 refractive surgery procedures.
Dr. Walker pursued his medical, ophthalmic, and specialized refractive surgery training when LASIK first revealed its fantastic promise. From that point on, this remarkable procedure has guided his professional career. In medical school at the University of Texas, he earned membership in the Alpha Omega Alpha Medical Honor Society, and achieved acceptance to ophthalmology residency at the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center, where he focused on cornea studies.
Upon completion of his residency training, Dr. Walker made his next distinguished achievement when he was accepted for fellowship training in refractive surgery at the University of Washington Medical Center. There, he practiced and studied exclusively in refractive surgery for one year. During this time, he was the lead investigator in several laser eye surgery studies, all dealing with prevention of complications and maximizing visual outcomes through refractive surgery. His work has been published in The Journal of Refractive Surgery and Cornea.
As a Fellow in Refractive Surgery with thousands of cases of experience, Dr. Walker is one of the very few specialists in the United States to have advanced expertise and training in laser eye surgery technique, and specialization in the physiology of the cornea, which is the part of the eye treated in a LASIK procedure. His expertise and confidence in LASIK are attested to by his having had the procedure himself, and having performed LASIK on his wife.
Dr. Walker has chosen the Pacific Northwest as his home so he can be close to his extended family, and share the many unique outdoor opportunities with his wife and daughters.

Absolutely amazing experience. 15 minutes of surgery is well worth being able to see. I can’t recommend this place enough to anyone. The staff were friendly and the experience was smooth.

Hands down the best decision ever made. 4 years and still no glasses and no issues. Thanks Lasik!

On the recommendation of several close friends who also came to this clinic, I finally got LASIK and I am so happy I did! I had moderate to verging on heavier astigmatism and I’m so happy to now be free of niche expensive contacts and glasses that got in the way of basic activities. It’s been two weeks since my procedure and I’m healing and seeing exactly how the LasikPlus team explained. Following the eyedrops and supplement routines has been pretty simple to stay on top of for maximum care, because they give you everything you need and super clear instructions at multiple points. From the minute I walked in for a consultation, to my procedure, and walking out the door after it all, Michael, Dr. Lee, and Dr. Iwanyk were an absolutely stellar team, supported by the latest and greatest technology. The LasikPlus team makes everything very fast and easy to schedule on a timeframe that works for you, while also making sure you feel informed, secure, and understood at every step. They explained everything so well, what the pre-exams were checking, why I would or wouldn't be a good candidate, side effects and post-op care, the procedure itself… so much so that I could explain it to a family friend who also wanted to get it done! So many healthcare interactions nowadays feel impersonal and rushed so this really stood out to me. During the procedure, Dr. Iwanyk was so gentle and kind, explaining everything he was doing just before doing it so nothing came as a surprise and to help me stay still and calm for a fast and safe LASIK procedure. There's definitely stuff that would make most people squirm but they are so precise and calming that you're done before you know it. The man has done 80,000 procedures and it shows. It doesn't take 20/20 vision to see why LasikPlus is the best spot for the job.

Hard to believe I waited this long to have LASIK. It was easy and painless. The Boise location has an amazing staff, so eager to help, and makes you feel at ease with the procedure. I highly recommend it.
