Dr. Baker accessed my MRI and went to work trying to get me pain free, I ride horses and on my first visit I told him I'm not going to quit riding and I am not having surgery...so go from there....he did several injections and that didn't help so we stepped up and did a nerve block to my lower discs and so far (that was 3 1/2 years ago) I've been pain free and able to go from heavy narcotics to only one light pain pill taken 1st thing in the AM after being flat on my back overnight....I ride and continue to go from 4:45 AM t... read more
He is the the most thorough and caring physician that I have ever met. He does not prescribe treatments based on what the insurance companies are pushing him towards, but instead he looks carefully at the individual patient’s condition and works with the patient to come up with a treatment plan that truly makes the patient’s lives better. He is a rare individual in the other-wise strictly profit motivated healthcare business.
He did a hard sell for a spinal injection of steroids. In follow-up after I declined the procedure (I have had it several times before, it did not help), he gave me a prescription for a months worth of pain relief and discharged me from his care. I guess pain mgt is a profit and loss centered treatment, completely dissatisfied.
My experience with Dr. Baker was not what I had hoped for. I received anti inflammatory injections. Hurt so bad I thought I was going to scream. i think something went wrong. Then, to make matters worse, they didn't work. I tried to reschedule for additional injections; COULDN'T EVER GET ANYONE TO RETURN MY CALLS. After several months, I just quit calling and changed doctors. If you go to this doctor, I wish you good luck.
I found him to be very friendly and through. He answered all my questions and went over my MRI in depth so that I understood where the pain was coming from and why we were going to proceed with the recommended procedure first rather than what I had wanted and suggested. He listened to all my concerns and helped me to be completely aware of what he would be doing and how long it would take. I think he is one of the best Pain Management physicians in the Augusta, Georgia area.
