Surgical Facility

Dr. Baker performs the majority of his surgery at the Sherman Out-Patient Surgery Center at Florida Hospital Orlando.

Consultation

Dr. Baker provides as much information as possible during the examination and consultation. Your desires and expectations will be discussed in detail. He will cover the entire procedure(s) with you so you will be aware of how long the surgery will take, how it will be performed, what the recovery period will be like and what the possible complications might be. Several members of his staff have had at least one cosmetic surgery procedure performed and therefore can answer most questions.

Payment Options

It is customary to request that fees for cosmetic surgery be paid three weeks prior to surgery. Cash, Check, Visa, MasterCard and Financing through a Cosmetic Fee Plan are accepted.
