Scleroderma

The physical impact of scleroderma varies significantly from patient to patient. For some individuals, the condition involves systemic changes that affect internal organs and blood vessels; for others, the effects remain localized, presenting only as hardening or tightening of the skin.

While there is currently no permanent cure for scleroderma, many advanced treatments are available today to help manage the condition. Proactive, specialized medical care can successfully help curb symptoms, minimize daily discomfort, and significantly improve a patient’s overall quality of life.

Susan A. Baker, MD, FACR provides expert, highly individualized treatment plans designed around your specific symptoms and medical history. From her Beverly Hills practice, Dr. Baker delivers compassionate and comprehensive care for a variety of complex connective tissue and musculoskeletal conditions.

I am new to seeing Dr. Baker but have found her to be extremely professional, extremely intelligent, and most of all, extremely caring. At our first appointment, she saw me immediately, was helpful in her comments, and followed up by phone promptly to discuss my results. I hope to be her patient for a long time and have told friends about her practice.

On my first visit, although we weren’t able to connect through telehealth, Dr. Baker called me herself and we had an initial lengthy phone conversation. Without even meeting her in person, I can already tell how attentive and compassionate she is!! Since meeting her in person she has continued to provide the same caring, compassionate care.
