Gout and Pseudogout

A structured, data-driven approach to differentiating complex inflammatory joint conditions and safely reducing patient discomfort.

Because gout and pseudogout present with nearly identical painful flare-ups, an accurate diagnostic differentiation is essential. Dr. Baker leverages her specialized fellowship training and advanced biomarker tracking to identify the specific crystal deposits causing your localized joint inflammation.

We reject standard, protocol-driven workflows. Your specific therapeutic pathway is custom-designed around your unique metabolic profile, complete medical history, and long-term joint health goals to address the underlying root causes of your symptoms.

Managing recurring arthritic flare-ups requires sustained clinical oversight. You will always collaborate directly with Dr. Baker over time to monitor your progress and safely adjust your care; your treatment is never delegated to mid-level staff.

I am new to seeing Dr. Baker but have found her to be extremely professional, extremely intelligent, and most of all, extremely caring. At our first appointment, she saw me immediately, was helpful in her comments, and followed up by phone promptly to discuss my results. I hope to be her patient for a long time and have told friends about her practice.

On my first visit, although we weren’t able to connect through telehealth, Dr. Baker called me herself and we had an initial lengthy phone conversation. Without even meeting her in person, I can already tell how attentive and compassionate she is!! Since meeting her in person she has continued to provide the same caring, compassionate care.

I’ve been seeing Dr. Baker for the last 15 years. She is the most knowledgeable, compassionate and dedicated Rhuemalogist. She is also very sweet, kind and professional! I always feel acknowledged and heard. She is definitely worth trusting with your health.
