Dr. Baker is thoughtful, caring, considerate highly professional doctor. She is always very friendly and focused on finding the best solution to your medical problem. She is always available on email, and her qualified staff will enable you to get an appointment with her in a few days or a week max. I always enjoy a visit to see Dr. Baker because she treats me as a friend rather than a client. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a new health professional!!
