National Medical Meetings

Peter F. Armstrong, M.D., FRCSC, FACS, FAAP - Director of Medical Affairs - Shriners Hospitals for Children

Shriners International Headquarters


I have known Walt for several years. I have listened to him speak many times. Any time Walt speaks, he makes sure that any material he uses is thoroughly researched to ensure accuracy. He is a man of incredible integrity who strives for excellence in all he does. This drive for excellence, however, never detracts from his commitment to his wife Barb and their two children, Scott and Kate. He is a gifted speaker who is genuine and speaks from his heart. He is able to attract and hold the attention of his audience because they can easily identify with him and what he is saying. Because they identify with him, they trust him to provide them with something very practical that will benefit each of them personally.

Gene Rudd, M.D. - Associate Executive Director

Christian Medical & Dental Associations

Dr. Larimore’s Department of Family Medicine Grand Rounds presentation at the University of Colorado was warm, thoughtful, compelling, and kept his audience’s rapt attention.

Kent Voorhees, M.D. - Vice President

Colorado Academy of Family Physicians


I am happy to endorse Walter Larimore M.D., FAAFP, who was a keynote speaker at the Colorado Academy of Family Physicians 2005 Annual Scientific Meeting in Keystone, Colorado. He opened our conference with an uplifting talk titled, “The Magic of Family Medicine.” He also gave an excellent talk titled, “Natural Medications: A clinician’s guide to medically-reliable information and quality products,” which was highly regarded by the conference participants. He is an excellent speaker with quality information and good rapport with his audience. 

Medical Grand Rounds

Dean Patton, M.D. - Assistant Dean for Graduate Medical Education

Brody School of Medicine at East Carolina University


Walt’s information is always current and practical. His topics have relevance to the practice of Family Medicine. Entwining the information with his own life experience as a family doctor makes the presentation interesting and digestible. 

Alieta Eck, M.D. - PIscataway, New Jersey

Robert Wood Johnson Medical School


Dr. Larimore did a masterful job in presenting Grand Rounds at the Robert Wood Johnson Medical School. The audience enjoyed his presentation and he handled their questions with ease. I would recommend him speaking to any professional group.

Dr. Walt Larimore is one of my favorite medical experts to call on. I know I can count on him to respond quickly, succinctly and accurately reflecting the viewpoints of Christian Medical & Dental Associations. We are very fortunate to have him on our team.

Dr. Gary and Barb Rosberg - America’s Family Coaches

Co-Hosts, America’s Family Coaches-LIVE!


Dr. Walt is ‘America’s Dr.’! When we have him as a frequent guest on our call in program, America’s Family Coaches—LIVE! the quality of our game goes up and the calls go through the roof. Walt is an excellent communicator, knows how to connect to an audience and brings the warmth of a family doctor to the listener. He has our whole hearted support!

Community Health Presentations

Dr. Robin Fiedler - Interim Children’s Minister

Riverchase Community Church


Parenting is a nerve-wracking and awesome responsibility! When Dr. Walt spoke to our parents, he combined heart-felt love and Biblical knowledge while challenging us to reflect God’s love in all that we do. His rapport with the parents allowed everyone to feel comfortable when asking questions, even on the stickiest topics. We left us with suggestions and creative solutions that were truly “doable!”

I have known Dr. Walt Larimore for many years now in many capacities.
  1. A trusted friend I could share anything with and feel his compassion;
  2. An associate on the Physician’s Resource Council at Focus on the Family;
  3. As television’s “Family Doctor” for many years;
  4. As author of some of my favorite books;
  5. As “Dr. Encyclopedia,” as his other physician friends call him, because he can probably quote you the last three research articles on almost any medical topic;
  6. As a brilliant, but compassionate and very funny speaker who you hate to see ever end his speech.
  7. As a lover of people who is loyal to God, country, family and friends.

Michael J. McLaughlin, M.Div. - Director of Community- Based Ministries - Western Regional Director

Christian Medical & Dental Associations


Dr. Walt Larimore engages an audience as few others today, holding everyone’s rapt attention, allowing no one to snooze, and should anyone go to sleep fighting gravity as their lids force their way south, they will wake in frustration asking their nearest peer what they missed. Dr. Walt Larimore really shines when fielding questions following his talks, as his breadth of research and experiences affords him a wealth of knowledge on a variety of topics, seeming far afield of his original talks.

John Crouch, M.D. - President and Executive Director

In His Image, International


Dr. Larimore is one of the most dynamic speakers that I know. I have heard him speak at numerous meetings, CMDA, national AAFP, and he has been our keynote speaker at our residency retreats repeatedly. He is very knowledgeable about a broad range of topics, great at engaging his audience, poignant with great take-home points, and just plain fun. It doesn’t get much better than this.

National Faith-Based Meetings

Dr. Dennis “The Swan” Swanberg

America’s Minister of Encouragment/Author/Tv Host/Humorist


Walt Larimore not only ‘Knows His Stuff’ but he knows how to communicate it to others! Rare do you find a Doctor with ‘The Brains’, ‘The Bedside Manner’ and the ability to Communicate before an audience like you do with The Doc of Docs! Dr. Larimore is good – real good!

Arnie Ahnfeldt M.D. - President Spring Canyon Advisory Council

Member Board Association of Christian Conferences and Teaching Services


Dr Larimore has spoken twice to the family medical conference for the combined Christian Medical and Dental Association/Officers Christian Fellowship week-long retreat in Spring Canyon, Colorado. His deep love of the Lord and his friendly style of speaking put him at the top of Christian medical speakers that have participated in our conferences over the past 20 years. I would highly recommend him to speak to either Christian or non-Christian audiences. He has a superb grasp of his subject material and presents it in an organized and relational manner that puts his audience at ease.

Al Weir, M.D. - Director of Community Based Ministries

Christian Medical & Dental Associations


Few doctors have the abilty to communicate as clearly as Dr. Walt Larimore. Fewer still have Dr. Larimore’s fund of scientific knowledge coupled with a solid Biblical understanding of life. When Dr. Larimore speaks, it is from a foundation I respect and a clarity I can understand.

Women’s Hope Medical Clinic


Dr. Larimore’s speaking was a motivating combination of humor, real-life experiences, and the reality of the sanctity of life. What an inspiration to prospective donors he was! Maybe that’s why our banquet giving broke our old record by $20,000!

Raul Reyes - President

Life Network


This was our best Gala because of the content of the evening’s program. I have three primary goals regarding our Galas – that God is honored, that it is entertaining, and that people walk away educated and with the opportunity to engage in our ministry. Walt was able to achieve all three of these goals in one presentation – and that was unbelievable! He told compelling, relevant stories in a humorous manner, and gave people a respectful yet compelling call to respond and become engaged. As a result, we had our most successful Gala ever! Chris and I have been putting on events for over 35 years. Walt’s was the most annointed, heart felt, engaging presentation I have ever heard. I will be singing his praises to all of my CPC friends. 

Phil White - Board Chair

Life Network


Walt spoke at our 2006 annual fund raising banquet. He was the most meaningful Gala speaker I’ve ever heard! His stories are a cross between those of James Herriot and Garrison Keillor. Our attendees laughed and cried, but most of all, they were deeply moved.

Julie A. Parton, Ph.D. - Director, Pregnancy Resource Ministry

Focus on the Family


Dr. Walt Larimore was one of the best-received keynote speakers we’ve ever had for our Pregnancy Center Directors Conference. The people who taped the conference could barely keep up with requests for copies of his talk!

Judy Weber, CEO

We have had thirteen Fundraising Banquets and many guests have said that Dr. Larimore was their favorite speaker.  He speaks with compassion, wit and authority, all at the same time.  He was truly interested in our ministry and spoke for us with genuine passion.

Sol Pitchon - President/CEO

The comments and feedback from our guests were all glowing and included:
  • A tremendous speaker and communicator
  • A gifted story teller
  • Transparent, genuine, and entertaining
  • He had us laughing, crying, and reflecting on the miracle of life and to take a stand for the Sanctity of Human Life
  • Best Gala speaker ever!
