Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Great experience.
Always feel like I'm dealing with someone knowledgeable and who can quickly recall where we were in a previous interaction. Would highly recommend this doctor.

Outstanding service
Excellent attention to detail, knowledgeable and helpful. Provides insight on my condition and answers my numerous questions. He knows about all the latest techniques. I’ve had a procedure with him a few years ago that went very well and now the other bunion has to be addressed. I trust him to take care of it. There is no better podiatrist.

Dr. Baker is as knowledgable, effective and kind
Within a 45 minute visit, Dr Baker and his team took an x-ray, examined, diagnosed, prescribed, and documented my treatment, provided ancillary foot wear items on site and directed me to another nearby site for the rest of the items. I was one of 5 patients in the office during this time and Im sure they were also provided the same type of care. I plan to recommend him and his team without reservation.

Reassuring and effective expertise
This was my first time seeing a podiatrist and I made the appointment the same day for an urgent issue. I am very grateful to Dr. Baker and his team for their excellent care. He quickly fixed me up, explaining clearly along the way what steps he was taking and why, and also set me up with a pathway forward for continued strong healing and preventative care. I am generally nervous seeing doctors but was put at ease by his very well organized and personable approach. Thank you!

Happy I went to Dr. Baker
I heard a pop in my foot at soccer and assumed it was my ankle. After hours on a weekend and I got a call back from nurse offering time on Monday morning. He was great and moved me through the process quickly. X-rays, options on what my choices are and a follow up to not waste time and money. Front desk was great, nurse was great and dr baker was great. I highly recommend
