About Me:

Dr. Baird grew up in Iowa and first became interested in caring for patients with Parkinson’s disease and movement disorders when she worked as a nurse’s assistant in a nursing home. She studied French and Neuroscience at Grinnell College, and received her medical degree from Dartmouth Medical School. She and her husband moved to Portland for her neurology residency at OHSU and fell in love with the Pacific Northwest. She completed a fellowship in Movement Disorders at Oregon Health and Science University, where her research focused on identifying more sensitive biomarkers of early Parkinson's disease progression in order to design better clinical trials. She is especially interested in how neuroinflammation may contribute to the development of Parkinson's disease and how the immune system might be harnessed to protect and repair the brain. Outside of work, she enjoys hiking, baking, yoga, and spending time with her husband and daughter.

Very friendly and made me feel comfortable even if the procedure (injections) was kind of painful. Asked about current symptoms and was knowledgeable of my medical history. Made sure referral to Neurosurgeon was processed. I felt like she did a very thorough job treating my condition during the procedure at the appointment and also moving forward with managing treatment until my next appointment.

Both the clinic staff and Dr. Baird are absolutely fantastic. I am doing so much better than I otherwise would have been if I hadn't been in this clinic. Dr. Baird is knowledgeable, kind, and willing to tailor treatment to my needs. I could not ask for a better healthcare team and am deeply appreciative.

Dr Blair fully understands migraine and is up to date on all the latest research and treatment methods. She understands the brain and can explain her understanding for a lay person. She is everything anyone could ever want from a neurologist.

Dr was very knowledgeable about the problems I have been having. She said she was going to send some information with me about some of the things we talked about but I think she forgot and I hadn't realized it until I got home.

The provider listened to me very. I was extremely nervous but she was very kind and helped put me at ease. She answered all my questions and provided me with additional information. The only bad thing was that the room was VERY cold. But that's not something she has control over. I'm just commenting on it.

Doctor Baird was extremely attentive to my health issues and questions. She gave me over an hour of her time. She was sensitive to my concerns and gave me a a plan of action that has been working very well to improve the quality of my health. During the appointment I felt that Doctor Baird was focused on me and gave me her complete attention. I really appreciate the time and attention I received from Doctor Baird.

Dr. Baird is excellent as well as her staff.

My long wait time was because the patient before me was over 10 minutes late for their appointment because the medical transport they used was late. But the provider was kind and saw them anyway. I was okay waiting because I had the time and I know how medical transport can be unreliable. And I appreciated that the doctor didn't rush my appointment even tho the patient before me made her run behind schedule.
