Going into oral surgery was an obvious choice for Dr. Baker — he always knew that he wanted to heal people and genuinely loves performing surgery. A board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon, Dr. Baker is always thrilled to work with the people of southeast Idaho, honored to treat generations of local families he has known for the many years he has been with Oral Surgery Specialists of Idaho. Dr. Baker would like his patients to know that the staff at our practice is second-to-none, and you will always leave our care healthier and happier.
