Dr. Baker exhibits a great deal of care, understanding and desire to fully communicate all of the details and facets of my condition. Everything is asked, presented and answered in an easy conversational tone but not at the expense getting to the medical details pertinent to my situation. He most definitely exhibits a very high level of professionalism that is comforting.
