Randal Baker Bariatric Surgeon M.D., F.A.C.S.

My first impression was that he knew what he was talking about.


My impression of Dr. Baker only grew more positive.
His office staff is very helpful and make you feel like you matter to them.
Nothing.

Dr Baker is very thorough and will answer any questions you may have.
Dr Baker makes sure you know that aftercare is very important.
Yes he does.

He explained the risks completely and clearly. I knew exactly where I stood.
I would rate Dr Baker as one of the best !

I am pre surgery so I can't really answer this question yet but I will after the surgery.

I really like Dr. Baker, but have only had my initial meeting with him. He is really informative, and of course, knowledgable. He is a member of the ASBS.

He works with MMPC, and the staff there is AMAZING!!! They treat you like an actual person. The office is made special for big people, I love going there!

I will update again after surgery, May 7th!

Haven't met him yet. I go to the orientation meeting on april 17th. This is the first step for this program. My husband and I are both going. He is considering the surgery also. So this will be the first step for both of us.

Dr. Baker is awesome. My husband and I both liked him very much. He answered all of the questions I had (3 pages worth!) and even anticipated some of them before I could ask! He is extremely knowledgeable --very confident, but not cocky. I liked his personality, too. I think I have one of the best! He was very prompt for the appointment, he took the time to explain exactly what he will be doing during the procedure, he didn't make me feel rushed. I just really liked him.

Dr Baker was wonderful. He is very friendly and listens to all my questions. He takes his time and shows that he really cares about his patients. His office staff is a little shaky, but the nurses and PA's are wonderful. They are all really nice and helpful. Aftercare seems to be pretty good so far, also.

My first impression of Dr. Baker was wow! He is so young looking, I wonder how long he has been performing the lap RNY. After talking with Dr. Baker I soon felt at ease with him and his qualifications and how he explained everything to me that I had made the right choice. Dr. Baker also has wonderful doctors that assist him with decision making and the surgery itself. I felt very at ease with all of the. The staff at MMPC was and still is wonderful to work with. They are all very supportive and are always there when I have a concern. Dr. Baker has a great aftercare program and follow up program that deals with each phase of aftercare. He did explain all the risks and all things that could or could not happen whether I wanted to hear them or not he made sure that I went in with my eyes wide open. I would recommend and have in fact to anyone considering the lap RNY surgery or the open incision. I think the Dr. Baker and his staff have the best of surgical competence and bedside manner! Thank you so much Dr. Baker! I can live my life now thanks to you and your staff!

I have an orientation on 3/13/03 - I have not met Dr. Baker yet. I will continue to let you know as things progress. Wish me luck! I really want to get healthy!

My first impression was very good and I have come to learn that he is very educated in Bariatric surgeries. He and the office staff are on top of all aspects of your medical history.

My first impression of Dr Baker was excellent and still is wonderful. I trust that he will do a great job! He answers all of your questions very thoroughy and tells you to call if you have anymore that he can answer. He seems very confident in doing the roux-en-y surgery.
His office staff so far have been very friendly and helpful.

Dr. Baker is a kind caring man, who understands the importance of a healthy functing parent in the home. He is not judgemental or intolerant with issues related to the responsibilities of raising children. His staff was readily available on off hours for problems and my concerns. I am still ill after my procedure in May. I'm still having trouble but, he does all he can both medically and surgically to correct the problem.
