Wonderful! He explained all my options and took time to listen to and answer all my questions. When the time comes, he will definitely be the surgeon I choose for shoulder surgery. His PA, Emily was great too

I will NEVER visit with this provider again!!!!!! He has ABSOUTLY no patience, doesn't like to answer questions & believes because you are a certain age your body will start to "fall apart", ok we all know that. He made it sound like @ a certain age you DESERVE to have certain health problems and poo poo your wasting my time!!!! Perhaps if he's so bothered by such an age group he shouldn't visit with them!!!!!

Dr Baker is the BEST! He replaced my shoulder 2 years ago and even as I do annual checkups he spends time and doesn’t make you feel like just a number.
Highly recommended!

Seems like a good doctor just wish he would have slowed down to explain a few things a little on a first visit and first joint injection ever. Waiting to see if the shot worked.

As doctors we have 3 minutes to ave’s our patient unfortunately Dr. Baker’s bedside manner needs some practice he could learn from his PA … 😮would rate her 5/5 or perfect 20 probable and knowledgeable and perfect bedside manner 🙂
