How Dr. Baker Approaches Your Care
Whole-Picture Insight
Symptoms, labs, history, and lived experience rarely tell a clean story on their own. Dr. Baker looks beyond isolated findings to connect the pieces, so your care reflects the full picture, not just what appears on the chart.
Access + Advocacy
You work directly with Dr. Baker, not a rotating cast or a delegated team. She stays involved between visits, helping you weigh options, interpret information, and move forward with greater confidence.
Patient-Centered Care
Standardized pathways have their place, but they’re not a substitute for thinking carefully about one person. Dr. Baker shapes care around your history, your goals, and what’s actually going on with your health.
Meet Dr. Susan Baker
Double board-certified in Internal Medicine and Rheumatology, Dr. Baker built her Beverly Hills practice around time, continuity, and direct physician involvement.
Her approach is rooted in both advanced medical training and a deeply personal model of care. Her grandfather and great-grandfather practiced medicine as town doctors in Youngstown, Ohio, where patients were known, relationships mattered, and care extended beyond a single visit.
Today, Dr. Baker works with patients seeking prevention and longevity-focused care, support for chronic autoimmune conditions, and a more direct, engaged relationship with their physician.
Dr. Baker is the best of the best. She has been my doctor for 17 years (wow!) and helped me successfully navigate some challenging, scary medical issues. She is smart, thorough, compassionate, proactive, and generous. I am forever grateful to have Dr. Baker and her team on my side.
Michelle P.
Dr. Baker is a phenomenal physician. She individualizes her approach with each patient, uses both data and patient symptoms to make decisions, and delivers personalized healthcare so each patient receives the right treatment at the right time. With the use of remote technology, I have been able to access her from 3,000 miles away, and as a result, I feel the quality of my life will be greatly improved.
Lynn H.
First visit with Dr Baker and her staff. Very pleasant and attentive staff. I was impressed with Dr Baker. She asked questions, took vials of blood, and performed a thorough exam. Before giving answers regarding my scleroderma, she will discuss everything at my next appointment once results are back from blood work.
Christina H.
Dr. Baker is thoughtful, caring, considerate, and highly professional. She is always very friendly and focused on finding the best solution to your medical problem. She is available by email, and her qualified staff makes it possible to get an appointment with her in a few days or a week at most. I always enjoy a visit with Dr. Baker because she treats me as a person rather than a client. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a new health professional!!
