My first impression of Dr. Baker was that he was very professional and seemed to genuinely care about each and every one of his patients personally.rnrnHis office staff was absolutely amazing, I was treated like a PERSON and not a number.
I have yet to meet my surgeon, but will do so at my Pre-Op appointment on 2-27-08! His staff is amazing and VERY supportive. Chris Larson, PA, is a wonderful person and has been very supportive. The aftercare program that he offers is terrific, very structured and from what I can tell educational. I am looking forward to meeting him and having him hand me the \"tool\" that will make the rest of my like much fuller!rnrnI meet my surgeon for the first time on 2-27-08 at my Pre-Op appt. He is an amazing man. What a great bedside manner. We have the same sense of humor which is important when doing something as important as this. I feel that this was a great pairing on behalf of the support staff.
Dr. Baker and his staff are very professional and truly want you to have the best and safest procedure possible. The bariatric team does an extensive workup on you to prepare you for surgery.rnrnLori was in the clinic and handled all my insurance needs. My insurance company complimented her on having done all the necessary testing needed for them before they even asked.rnrnChris Larsen is the Physicians Asst. (PA) and takes you through the realities of the surgery and does not sugar coat it. It is serious and just like any other surgery, can cause serious problems. rnrnEmily was my nutritionist or dietician. She is also very concerned with your attitude about food and I saw her for 6 months before surgery.rnrnWith the exception of Lori, all the above stopped by while I was in the hospital to wish me luck. Dr. Baker was in at least twice a day as was a team of residents. The nursing staff at Gundersen Lutheran were excellent, very caring and professional. rnrnI have an aftercare program set up with the clinic and am scheduled for an appt. in 3 weeks.rn
