Patient Reviews
Feb 25, 2020
Dr Baker has a great rapport and he has helped me for over 5 years now. His nursing staff are very helpful and they are a compassionate office. I enjoy going there because they make you feel welcome. There are people who are trying to ban Dr. Baker from practice, because he treats so many patients, but we would have nowhere to go if he were put out of business. Please keep in mind there are very few options for back pain specialists in this area and many would be in a world of pain ,without his help.
