Dr. Baker and her staff really "saw" me and it was clear that she spent time reviewing my medical records. This was my first appointment with Dr. Baker. I feel relieved that she will be the one meeting my Neurology medical needs now.

Dr Virginia Baker was the one that got me to the ER immediately after she came in contact with a pulmonologist. I personally cannot thank her enough.
