Richard Baker undertook my Carpal Tunnel Release surgery. He was professional, explained the procedure and all issues that may arise. The surgery was smooth as has the recovery. I feel very fortunate to have had the benefit of Mr. Baker's medical expertise. I am also grateful for
the very clear explanations and advice he provided throughout the whole process.

Excellent experience throughout, I found Dr Baker to be very knowledgeable. From my symptoms around my finger pain he knew exactly what the cause was (Glomus Tumor). Removed the culprit
with minor surgery, my finger is now healing very well. Highly recommend 10/10.

Mr Baker was friendly, professional and made my daughter feel very comfortable. He described in detail the various options available to us and the outcomes of each, so that we could make an informed decision about the procedures. My daughter has been delighted with the results and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend him.

Fantastic experience

After an initial consultation for Dupytrons Contracture, Mr Baker explained very clearly the procedure (Fasciectomy) which was the recommendation for my circumstance and he promptly followed this up with a detailed letter. The operation at the Spires Wexham went well and I am pleased thus far with the end result (it's only been 2 weeks since the operation). I'm thrilled that my hand is looking more normal.
19/09/2023
Mr Baker has a very pleasant manner and I would have no hesitation in recommending him.

i would definitely highly recommend him.
23/08/2023

22/08/2023
Mr Baker helped me with the information that I had gathered over time on my condition and provided a realistic opinion based on his knowledge. He was great at listening and I felt that I was allowed to make the best choice for me from the procedures available. My surgery went very well and my recovery from Trapeziectomy is going extremely well. At 8 weeks I'm almost fully functional except for heavy lifting, bearing weight on the palm of my hand and certain movements that require high strength of the thumb. Allowing for internal healing is key. All these are expected to come gradually as I continue to do the exercises recommended by the physiotherapist. Mr Baker has answered all of my questions at the various stages, prior and after my surgery which has been helping me through my journey to recovery. I am considering Mr Baker for another procedure on my other hand without doubt. Thank you for helping me regain the functionality of my left hand and Mr Richard Baker for taking away the pain I suffered for the best part of 3 years prior to the surgery.

Mr Baker removed a Lipoma from my hip. He explained the procedure which I required thoroughly He has a good bedside manner. I was very satisfied with my experience.
15/08/2023 I had a breast reduction in July 2023. I have had an amazing experience. From the beginning Dr Baker was very professional and gave me clear information and advice. He answered all my questions. I received excellent care after the operation. I am really happy with the result and I would like to mention Dr Baker's admin team who always made things easy. I would recommend Dr Baker to my family and friends.
14/08/2023
Great Dr was clear and explained everything well, conducted the operation soon after my appointment. Has a good bedside manner and was clear of milestones in the follow ups.
04/08/2023
I met Mr. Baker for a lump in my right arm. I was a little anxious as it was my right hand. His diagnosis was so accurate (the diagnosis was a simple 5 minute examination from him), which I think is because of his experience in the field of surgery/medicine and he suggested a lipoma removal minor op. He explained the procedure very clearly and he was very friendly. He made me very comfortable and answered all my questions. He was amazing, and the recovery/healing time was so quick. He definitely has magic in his hands. he is the best surgeon you could get. Look no
further, he's the best :). Last but not the least, he has amazing, helpful PAs :)

30/06/2023
As one might expect Mr Baker is very knowledgeable and professional, he was thorough in his consultation, took the time to explain his thoughts and his plan of action so there would be no surprises. The surgery was quick and astonishingly well executed with only minor pain felt Mr Richard Baker afterwards and a very tidy scar which is healing well.
28/06/2023
Explained my problem (trigger thumb) clearly, unlike my GP surgery who had diagnosed arthritis. One quick cortisone injection there and then, and all was fixed. Brilliant! Extremely nice chap, caring and efficient.
05/06/2023
Mr. Baker is extremely helpful and honest, he answered all my questions clearly. The steroid injection he gave into my thumb in early March, was first class and I've had no pain at all since! I Mr Richard Baker would certainly recommend him and will go back if I need any other help.

30/05/2023
Excellent procedure & result. Highly recommended.
25/05/2023
I have been under Mr Baker's care for over six years. During this time I have had a trapeziectomy on both hands. Mr Baker is very professional in his demeanour and totally honest regarding the possible risks and expected outcomes involved in the procedures. I have had very positive experiences despite the fact that trapeziectomy is a notoriously painful operation with a lengthy recovery period. If ever I should need future advice and procedures I would not hesitate to consult Dr Baker. . I found him both caring and skilled.
15/05/2023

My second operation with Mr Baker. Excellent results from the first and confident about the outcome Mr Richard Baker this time. Richard is highly professional, patient centric and instills confidence.
12/04/2023
Mr Baker was exceptional with his care for my 6 year old who had a lip laceration. He acted with care and swiftness given that the NHS had already made us wait a week for treatment. Mr Baker explained options and took it upon himself to find a way to fit my son in for surgery. He was brilliant in securing a bed for my son for the very next day. The surgery went extremely well and Mr Baker's bedside manner was fantastic. My son's lip has since healed beautifully and there is almost no scarring at all. We are so grateful to have met Mr Baker and could not recommend him more! He's a talented plastic surgeon who is worth seeing.
22/03/2023
Very professional, everything fully explained, made to feel at ease.
02/03/2023
Dr Baker operated with dupuytren's on my right hand first & I felt no worries or fears as he explained in full what will need doing, I was awake during the procedure & was at ease as the conversation put my mind off what was happening, the aftercare was first class as well. I was so pleased when I found out he was doing the same operation on the left hand, both hands have Mr Richard Baker healed really well & made my future so much easier to live with.
08/02/2023
Calm professional manner. Made clear the procedure, after care and possible after effects. Mr Richard Baker Followed up for post op assessment quickly with ease and with time to ask any questions.

19/10/2022
My experience relates to an injury I suffered whilst mountain biking. In fact, I suffered several injuries that required several consultants who were specialists in the affected areas. From that experience I can confidently say that the whole experience with Mr Baker is benchmark. From the booking of the initial consultation through to the after-surgery follow-ups, Mr Baker and his secretarial support make it as easy, transparent and friendly as possible. I am happy to highly recommend.

23/08/2022
Mr Baker was an absolute pleasure to deal with. I had broken my finger and required surgery to pin it back into place. He explained the procedure very clearly, and I trusted him implicitly to perform the surgery. I had local anaesthetic and he made me feel very calm throughout the procedure. I want to thank him very much for he has enabled me to gain use of my finger again with minimal scarring. Would highly recommend!

Mr Baker was very thorough in explaining the diagnosis at my first appointment and on the day of the procedure. The procedure went very well. At my follow up with Mr Baker, he reassured me that my hand was healing well and how to treat it whilst healing and explained in detail what to expect in the coming weeks and months which left me feeling reassured.

Efficient and erudite
Great Easy Experience
28 Jul 2020
6 months post
Mr Baker recently performed my Brachioplasty surgery. At my consultation he was very informative and explained the procedure and explained to me all the things I should expect and how the operation would be performed.
I had my operation at the Welbeck clinic in London. The staff and nurses were excellent and made me feel at ease. Mr Baker spoke to me before the surgery to check all was ok and again after. I felt very relaxed.
After the operation I felt fine and had no pain in the next few days a little discomfort but no pain I was extremely pleased on how I felt.
Mr Baker saw me a few days after the operation and a week after to check and change the dressings.
My bandages stayed on for about 6 weeks. When the bandages were removed I was very pleased on how slim my arms looked there was some scarring which I expected but is under my arm and not noticeable
Now after six months the scarring is getting less and I was informed at my consultation this could take up to two years but I am very happy at present with the results I and take a great delight in being able to wear sleeveless tops after many years off wearing long sleeves.
So far I am amazed at the results and how much self-confidence the surgery has given to me.
Mr Baker has done an amazing job and I would recommend him for any surgical procedure.
Richard Baker Saved my Thumb
8 Dec 2019
A brilliant Plastic surgeon who saved my thumb. After ripping my thumb off and snapping my ligament off my bone, Richard performed surgery and reattached my ligament to my bone using a Mitex anchor. For two weeks I was in a cast, then another two weeks in another cast, then another week in a cast and then I was transferred to hand therapy and given gentle hand and thumb exercises. Now, nearly two months later, I have been discharged! My scar is very neat and heals further every day and I am gaining confidence by lifting and pinching my thumb. I was worried I would never been able to use my thumb again so I am very lucky that I met Richard Baker and his great team - I will always be very thankful #savemythumb #iamverylucky
An Amazing Breast Augmentation, 300cc, Dual Plane, 32A to 32DD Happy
10 Nov 2019
I had a breast Augmentation last year in December 2018 at The London Welbeck Hospital. I had 300cc, smooth, round, high profile, silicone, mentor memory gel implants, dual plane, inserted through the breast inframammary crease. I had a great experience and my surgeon Doctor Richard Baker was amazing, I was nervous at the beginning before I met him, but he put my mind at ease and answered all my questions and I trusted him, he was very professional, knowledgeable, honest and all the photos of his previous cases were beautiful and natural. If you want a professional surgeon who will give you honest answers and beautiful, natural looking results, then Doctor Richard Baker is the one. I was more nervous taking my top off at the consultation than I was before going into theatre for surgery as by this point I knew I was in good hands and had nothing to worry about. The hospital was spotless, I had my own bathroom, shower, toilet and nurse attending me (who was so lovely to me and really looked after me, before and after surgery) Obviously I did have some discomfort after surgery, I told them and I was given pain relief, the soreness was bearable and after taking medication I just wanted to sleep, I have had much worse period pains. Almost a year on and I am so pleased with the results, I have gone from wearing a 32A bra to being fitted properly and now I wear a 32DD and was told my actual size is 30E but I have never wore a size 30 bra it feels very tight around my torso so I’m wearing 32DD. They are very natural, they sound huge but honestly they do not look stuck on, they look so natural, it is not the Katie Price/Jordan look. My sisters have said they look real and are so jealous! (They want to have theirs done) Lol, I now look like I was blessed and born with big boobs. But really it’s all down to my surgeons skills, thank you doctor Richard Baker! This is a professional surgeon who in my opinion has a conscience. I always follow my gut instinct and I felt straight away that I could trust Richard. He is professional and will give you honest answers. He is not inappropriate or over the top friendly, as I have heard some other surgeons can be. I was never made to feel stupid or like an object or like I was being judged for choosing breast implants. All I can say is the results are gorgeous, natural, I am so happy with them and Richard is Professional, an expert and will give you natural, beautiful results. I can not recommend him enough. I am beaming with confidence :) :) :)

From the moment I was introduce to Mr Baker to today which is just over 2 weeks post opp, I have had fantastic support and guidance form Mr Baker. I was able to discuss any issues or concerns that I had at any time.
Mr Baker gave very full and open answers to all my questions and was able to tell me all the possible outcomes both positive and negative.
I have just returned from having all my dressings removed and the results are amazing even though I am still a little swollen,
I would definitely be recommending Mr Baker to friends that have asked me who also require procedures to be carried out.
