About Me
As an interventional cardiologist, I specialize in treating cardiovascular disease through interventional surgeries such as complex coronary interventions. I also treat peripheral arterial and venous disease with endovascular techniques. I am particularly passionate about helping patients with coronary artery disease and peripheral vascular disease, as they are two of the leading causes of death and disability in the United States. I take the time to listen to my patients’ stories and encourage them to take part in the decision-making process so we can reach the best possible outcome and quality of life.
I enjoy practicing at an academic medical center like Ohio State where I’m able to work alongside brilliant leaders in their respective fields, while also having the opportunity to help educate and train the next generation of cardiologists and participate in research. My current research projects include the etiology of myocardial infarction in women and the treatment of pulmonary embolism with catheter directed lysis. I also work with the vascular surgery group to determine the best therapies for patients with critical limb ischemia.
When I am away from work, I enjoy spending time with my family, exploring the outdoors, biking and trying new healthy recipes.

Consulting and Related Relationships
At The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, we support a faculty member’s research and consulting in collaboration with medical device, research and/or drug companies because a faculty member’s expertise can guide important advancements in the practice of medicine and improve patient care.

Dr. Baker is very thorough, professional, and was truly interested in my wellbeing. She explained all aspects of my condition, the procedure, and answered all of my questions. I would highly recommend Dr. Baker.
Dr. Baker's office in Marysville is beautiful, so new, so clean. She conveys not only that she is treating my cardiac condition, but above that I feel so comfortable because she is physician who does treat the condition or disease excellently, but also and most importantly treats the patient with the disease. Sometimes physicians seem to not focus on the patient care, and it has been so refreshing to receive this sort of care.
Excellent care and attentive.
All good have been a patient for approximately 14-15 yrs.
