Dr. Michael Baker shares the perfect amount of information in a truthful upfront and friendly dialog that let's you know he was very well Informed and prepared...knew just the right way to cover and explain and proposed future viewpoints and solutions as to my needs. His continuity from the last visit is quite assuring that the next appointment will do the same.
