Rachel Baker, ARNP

Many of my patients are afflicted by common chronic illnesses: high blood pressure, diabetes, depression, chronic pain, heart disease, substance abuse. These conditions can be helped by medicine or procedures, but they also provide opportunities to improve lifestyle and I try to emphasize those aspects of health, and work to partner with patients because I truly believe patients receive the greatest value from healthcare when they are fully engaged in understanding their conditions and treatments and are active in caring for themselves

My areas of interest are chronic disease management, immigrant health and LGBTQAI+ focused care, including sexual health and hormone therapy in all genders and sexual orientations. I welcome all to my practice. I view medicine as both an art and a science - not every algorithm works perfectly for everyone. One of the joys of my practice comes from hearing individual stories and using them as a guide to help patients lead their healthiest and most complete lives.
