A second pair of grip handles (32) is coupled to the frame (12) spaced apart from the first pair of grip handles (30). The walker apparatus (10, 210, 310) has a patient measurement device (58, 60) coupled to the frame (12) to measure a vital sign of the user and indicate the measurement on a display (64).
