"Dr Baker was soft spoken and to the point. I felt at frist like he knew what he was doing and explained it to me. Dr Baker is soft spoken which made it at times hard to hear him, he also seem to think you understand all the big medical words I had to ask him more then once what did he say which I think he felt like I was a dummy. Dr Baker seemed to not like it if you came into his office not pepared. You need to know before you see him that you need to have all the paper work done and have gone thru all the steps to his program.I really have not changed my impressions of him .Dr Baker is still the best surgeon. Dr Bakers office staff is another story. They seem to always be looking for things and seem to be over remled with thier work. They do not tell you that your frist visit will be an all day event and if you are going to do your per op the same day that takes a little while also. in all I spent 6 hours that day. They do try to work with you if you are coming in from some other place other than LR. which does make your day long. I just wished I knew that befor hand so I could have made plans for my kids. they do not returen your calls or emails on a timly manner. But when you do get a hold off them they are very nice and seem to be working on your case. Christy & Becky seem to care about you even if you are bugging them all day. If you are looking for a great surgeon then Dr Baker is the person you want. Just know that your frist visit is all day long and do not get the impression that the staff runs around with thier heads cut off, becuse under all the maddes there is a well ran office. Dr Baker makes you go to semiars and support groups and he has a great aftercare program. The support group is great and I cant wait until I get to stand up and state I have lost 50lbs or more Dr. Baker has made sure I understand all the risk and how to take care of myself after the surgery. I feel that he has made sure my husband and myself understood this was a life changing event and not a quick fix to my weight . I would say over all Dr. Baker is one of the best in his feild."
