Derek Baker, PA

Love the experience today with the provider Baker. He listened and answered any questions I had. This was the first time since the accident I felt seen and heard.

October 31, 2026

This is one of the best offices I've ever been to within Wellstar. I have had nothing but good come out of this office, from the front desk women who are so nice, welcoming and truly care, to Story, thank you so much, you have been a Godsend to me since I first spoke to you. To Dr. Parry and Derek - I can't say enough good things about both of you. My surgery went so well - I can say that my quality of life has changed tremendously because you all believed me when no one else would. I thank God every day for this team since they have given me my life back. Eternally grateful for the superior care, surgery and after care. Thank you so much.

Very professional, knowledgeable, easy to talk to, Very patient, fantastic personality.

I really felt comfortable with Dr Baker, I was dreading a trip to the Dr, but he actually made it kind of enjoyable! I was thoroughly impressed and felt that I could talk to him about anything, very nice polite, respectful, and the main thing is he listened to me. iI originally scheduled my visit for Paulding and they made me go to Marietta and I was kind of upset about that but it turned out to be a blessing in disguise. I don't care if I do have to drive to Marietta., thank you so much Dr. Baker. I really appreciate everything.!

September 12, 2026

Doctor had great demeanor. Listened to me intently gave me information several doctors had left out about my condition. Confirmed thoughts that I had. Just an overall professional experience. The way a medical visit should be.

September 12, 2026

I was very pleased. They explained everything to me, showed me the MRI, so I was very happy. The first surgeon I've been to that explained things to me.

September 11, 2026

I feel they went above and beyond.

September 6, 2026

Professional doctor. Listened to me.

September 5, 2026

Extremely delightful, timely experience. I'd recommend to friends and family. Can't say enough. Thank you.

September 2, 2026

I had a hard to find I was supposed to be. Everyone helped me! Every was very kind for me. And the doctor he was 100% and 100%!!! He was calm, he asked everything that I wanted to do and was why I had some pain etc. The other nurse even help to be run to the car because I forgot my phone!

July 24, 2026

Dr Baker was thorough knowledgeable kind engaging and walked me through what to expect and exactly how to interpret the finding from scans, etc from ED visit and for upcoming appt. Expectations. Nurse Season was above and beyond helpful as well, escorting me to where I needed to go post-appointment. Exceedingly impressed, so appreciative of time spent and feeling like a person, and not just a patient,

July 19, 2026

Excellent patient care, professional, personable and informative

July 18, 2026

I'm very happy to receive the correct diagnosis of my health thank u all very much

July 4, 2026

Did well to get in, to be seen, but horrible in communication for follow-up. Still waiting.

June 13, 2026

The nurse who did my blood pressure etc. argued with me about my allergy list. She didn't appear to know what malignant hyperthermia was and refused to note it in my record. Second, she changed my height from 63 inches to 62 inches. She insisted that I answer her questions while my blood pressure was being taken. I had to advise her that this would raise my blood pressure. She was very unpleasant to say the least. The P.A. was okay. I was amazed that some doctor came into the appointment. I didn't really get to ask questions. He just stated unequivocally that I didn't need surgery which made me very happy. A more thorough look at the films would have helped. I feel that the practice made the appointment just to make money without any concern for me as a patient.

May 24, 2026

I certainly appreciated the promptness. Took me back quickly after sign in and Doctor came in promptly at appt. time.

May 22, 2026

Feeling comfortable and at ease !!!!

May 17, 2026
