Andrew Baker

MBBS

I'm a basic physician trainee based in Adelaide, Australia. I'm also a keen cyclist, skier and musician, playing drums and double bass. I grew up on the Mid North Coast of NSW, but moved to Adelaide in 2015 for medical school. The supportive medical culture, wonderful wineries and spectacular cycling has kept me here!

I've just completed my Divisional Written and Clinical Exams, and will be commencing Rheumatology Advanced Training here in South Australia in 2026.
