Even though Dr. Baker knew that I was soon going to take another PCP closer to home (mine had recently left the network), he was friendly and professional and paid attention to my needs.

This was my very first appointment with Dr. Baker because my previous PCP left the practice. He saw me on short notice because I was recently discharged from a hospital. Dr. Baker was very thorough and carefully listened to the conditions I was describing. I liked Dr. Baker so much that I am now selecting him as my new PCP.
