Meet Bruce M. Baker, DO


With over 30 years of experience as a family physician, I have learned the most critical factor in the patient‐doctor relationship is listening to what the patient has to say. Listening takes time and, as an MDVIP‐affiliated physician, I have the time to listen. This allows me to develop a highly personalized approach to your preventive health care plan as well as the time to address health care challenges as they arise.

As part of a husband‐wife partnership of family physicians, we share many families. We provide a full range of preventive services, as well as acute care services. We emphasize personalized cardiovascular prevention and cancer screenings, as well as nutritional counselling and manipulative medicine. We have been voted Best Family Doctors in Grand Rapids on multiple occasions. We serve the greater Grand Rapids area including Ada, Cascade, Lowell, Kentwood and Wyoming.

Frequently Asked Questions

Doctors who operate in the MDVIP models typically see far fewer patients than traditional primary care doctors. That gives them more time to develop deeper doctor-patient relationships that can lead to better outcomes. They can also offer conveniences that most primary care doctors can’t, including same- and next-day appointments. They’re available after hours for urgent matters. And they have time to focus on prevention. That focus begins with the MDVIP Wellness Program, which patients pay for with their annual membership fee.

Most MDVIP-affiliated primary care practices accept insurance (your physician can tell you whether they accept your specific insurance plan). Your annual fee pays for preventive care medical services that insurance usually doesn’t cover (e.g., advanced diagnostic testing and screenings). Your MDVIP-affiliated physician will continue to bill your insurance and charge copays, co-insurances and deductibles as he or she currently does for other medical services like sick visits.

MDVIP makes wellness and prevention easier by providing your physician with innovative tools and technology. MDVIP supports your physician’s practice and seeks to eliminate barriers to a positive healthcare experience. Your doctor will determine whether and how to incorporate these tools at his/her discretion.

Dr. Baker has been my physician for about 30 years. He takes the time to listen and takes my concerns seriously. I have had very good results from the referrals that he has given me. I am truly lucky to have found him all those years ago.

This stuff is a waste of my time. Baker is a good doctor but I see no reason for MDVIP to stand in the middle of our relationship.

DR. Bruce Baker is the best Primary Care doctor that I have had. The attention and personal care have been exceptional. I chose to stay with his practice despite living on the other side of the state for aforementioned reasons.

I have been a patient of Dr. Bruce Baker for 28 years. He sees three generations of my family, including my children. He is, in short, the best doctor I have ever been to. He is so thorough and explains things in such a way that you completely understand the issue or condition he is talking about. He spends as much time as you need while you are there - and yet, I've never had to wait very long while he was with another patient. He is knowledgeable, friendly, smart, kind and I would recommend him to anyone - of any age.

Love the staff and the doctors here. Very friendly and extremely family oriented. Been going to this doctor for 30 years and don’t plan on ever changing unless I’m forced to by his retirement.

Cannot recommend. Although he is a "nice guy" when it comes to caring for his patients, it seems to be secondary. He opted to move to a program that costs a fair amount of money (which was fine) but dropped any interest/care in any patients who didn't sign up immediately.

Dr Baker is very knowledgeable about the latest healthcare research and puts it's to good use. You're unlikely to get level of care in typical drive-by healthcare.

I have recommended Dr. Baker to many family and friends!! Absolutely incredible and thorough care from Dr. Baker and his staff. He is always very easy to talk to & I don’t get nervous to visit his office like I did with past providers. The MDVIP program has been especially valuable for me, as well as my stepdad, also a patient of this practice.

I am very thankful to have found his practice after my previous PCP retired. I would recommend Dr. Bruce to anyone.

Love Dr Bruce Baker

from Eddie in MI • March 10, 2024
Been with him most of my adult life 34years, has always been there for me, visited me in the hospital. When he moved locations I followed. Always straight and truthful with compassion and without the guilt trip. Friendly staff, I feel comfortable when I call to ask a question and have received an answer in a timely manner.

I wanted to highlight the exceptional care I have been receiving from Dr. Bruce Baker. Dr. Baker was the first doctor that ever mentioned I should undergo testing to see if I carry a genetic heart issue that has cut many of my family members lives short. This includes my dad, uncle, and paternal grandmother. As it turns out, I DO carry both pairs of this gene. This was extremely important Read more...

Thanks

from Ellen in MI • February 12, 2024
My doc Dr Baker is the best. He listens and discusses everything. He understands me. Which is hard. His wife is also a doctor and is of the same quality. SUPER

from Norm in MI • February 11, 2024
My doctor Bruce Baker took his lab coat off to demonstrate yoga poses so I knew how to do proper stretching, also his never ending attempts to convince me to stop smoking even after telling me He could not convince his own mother to quit he will not give up trying.

Dr Bruce Baker: outstanding recognition.

from michael in MI • January 20, 2024
Dr Bruce Baker has been an invaluable source of medical information for me and his expertise in whatever health subject we discuss, is truly amazing. I don't know if I have one particular moment that stands out specifically, other than that his advice is gold. One example perhaps that come to mind is when I expressed my concern over some persistent knee pain I was having. Rather than Read more...
