Family Medicine in Liberty Lake

Our family of eight got on with Dr. Baker when he was just starting out his practice, If I could give him 10 stars, I would. This is going to the doctor should be like-a kind doctor who listens, is knowledgeable, and is respectful of your time. You will not regret using Dr. Baker. I feel bad for anyone who has a different family doctor. We won the lottery of doctors! I referred several family members and friends who all like him just as much as we do!

10 Stars. Phenomenal care that ultimately has saved us time and money. Although my story is unique, I will share how Dr. Baker has helped me, my husband and our 2 teenage children in a variety of ways. First, finding a primary care physician proved very difficult when I returned to Liberty Lake last year from a trip to Mexico that resulted in a ruptured appendix, emergency removal and 8 days spent in a small hospital in Cabo. Upon my return, follow up check in appointments were needed and despite being fully insured, I could not find primary care openings for 6+ months. Dr. Baker was able to see me within 1 day of contacting his office. I had called over 2 dozen doctors in the Spokane and North Idaho area and 4 surgeons per the recommendation from the surgeon in Mexico to be diligent in my follow up and no one could expedite seeing me. Dr. Baker thoroughly examined me, did an extensive blood panel review for a co-pay through his program of under $20 - this same blood draw had previously cost me over $500 when I went through my insurance and he was able to refer me to a surgeon and I was seen within a week for a consultation with both a nurse and a doctor. Shortly after I had enrolled to Baker Direct Primary Care, my husband did as well as he had sat next to me and witnessed his thoroughness and attentiveness. In the last 9 months he too has experienced the convenience of same day or next day appointments, blood draws at a nominal fee, referrals to experts with expedited appointments and consistent review and interpretation of what the expert opinion and recommendation is. Although our 2 teens were only going to the doctor for an annual check up and emergency needs, we decided to enroll them as well and it has been extremely convenient to have Dr. Baker see them for sports physicals, sports injuries and physical therapy referrals, acne prescriptions and general medical concerns. Dr. Baker is the most convenient, caring, thorough primary care provider we have experienced as a family living in multiple states and parts of the country. It reminds me of the family primary care physician I grew up seeing with my 4 siblings and my parents.

When you see Dr Baker, you truly feel like you are talking to one of the "old time" family doctors who really listens to you and cares. He is very knowledgable about all aspect of medicine and not trying to pawn you off on some specialist, unless needs be. He is not watching the clock and trying to hurry you along, which, to me is very important. You feel like you have friends when you go to see him.

I have loved my years here with Dr. Baker and his team! I didn’t know I could find such high quality, thoughtful, caring, and expedient care in this area. I have had some major health concerns in the last few years and not only am I always met with kindness, I am always believed. Previously, I dealt with PCPs brushing me off as “anxious” without checking anything out. When I came into his office for the first time, he let me tell him my history and connected with me about my concerns and what I am striving for in my health goals. I now have a diagnosis, a specialist, and I am the healthiest and most pain-free I’ve been in years. I recommend this practice to anyone!

Our family of 5 has been with Dr. Baker since he first opened his Direct Family care practice here in Liberty Lake. He and his team are the best of the best! We recommend Dr. Baker to everyone!

What can I say? Working with Dr Baker has greatly improved my quality of life. I deal with several chronic illnesses that can be debilitating at times. I came to him in a lot of pain and struggling to function day to day. He is kind, compassionate, and willing to take the time to investigate, and try things to see what helps. He truly cares. I don’t feel like a lost cause, and have hope. Dr Baker, thank you very much. It’s truly a pleasure working with you.

My wife and I just had our annual check-up with Dr Baker and the team at Baker Primary Care. We are so happy we made the decision to be part of their team. What a difference from the days of long waits and care by multiple, changing providers. With Dr. Baker as our “gatekeeper” to help us get the right services from the best providers gives us confidence that we are on track. In short, what a game changer. For anyone who has not taken a look at Baker Direct Primary Care, we’d strongly recommend they do so.

My first visit to this office was quite pleasant. The staff was efficient and very kind. I feel my new doctor, Drostan Baker, will be a positive benefit to any medical needs. I would highly recommend this office.

Very nice first visit with Dr. Baker. He asked questions and listened to my history and concerns and helped put together a plan for my health care issues. It was a very pleasant experience. Thank You.

This was the most amazing doctor we’ve ever had! He is caring, kind, and incredibly thorough. He listens , researches, follows through and never makes you feel rushed. He always made us feel like his most important patient of the day.

The most caring doctor I have ever visited. Dr. Baker actually listens to you and discusses your concerns in terms that are easy to understand. He takes the time to address your needs, past history and various treatments. I am very sad to hear that he will be leaving.

Dr. Baker takes his time with you, really dives in to figure out a solution to whatever health elements are going on. I've had to call him after hours and is always so quick to get back to me. He's gentle, respectful and kind. I would ABSOLUTELY recommend him to anyone looking for a TRUE doctor that listens and gets answers.

I Love the fact that I can have a Doctor that can spend time with me and knows me as opposed to being a number amongst many patients. The help and care has always been genuine. The cost alone sets this all apart from the rest! Thank you Dr Baker and Team!
