Dr. James Peter Baker, MD

Dr. Baker is an amazing pediatrician. My normal pediatrician was out of the office and in the past when she is gone I have been told that I need to take my child to an urgent care which is always awful. Well I called my sister in-law upset about what was going on with my daughter. She had been telling me over and over to switch to dr. Baker but I didn't think I could and i was also always told the pa would not see my baby because she was under a month. Being a new mom I didn't know. My sister inlaw said she would make a phone call and call me back. My sister in-law called me back 10 minutes later said she had talked to Dr. Baker's nurse and her and Dr. Baker would see my child. I just needded to call the office and get an appointment. I called right away and spoke with makayla who knew the struggle I was having and they told me to just head right down to the office. This was at 11:30. Dr. Baker and his nurse were so caring. Thry listened to everything I said. My baby was tongue tied and and Dr. Baker was able to clip underneith the tongue and my daughter no longer has trouble latching. She also had bad congestion and his nurse came in and made a special nasal suction to get everything out that fits perfect in a newborns nose. When leaving I had tears of joy because i was so happy he spent time with me and my baby where as Dr.Antink only would spend 3 minutes in the room with me and he gave us 30 minutes. When checking out I found out he had recently closed his practice to new patients. I plan to write him a letter asking him to please take on my child as a patient. I also sent a letter to the newspaper and saint alphonsus on how great of a pediatrician he is.

Dr Baker saw us during his lunch time, bcs my baby had low grade fever. He always spends enough time with us and is very attentive, and answers my questions well. I like him and his advice a lot.
