Surgical Resident
Staten Island University Hospital
My name is Matthew Baker, and I am currently a PGY-2 General Surgery Resident at Staten Island University Hospital. I grew up in rural eastern Kentucky, where I attended Undergraduate studies and Medical School at the University of Pikeville. Although I am interested in all forms of the surgical treatment of disease, I have recently became particularly interested in the Gastrointestinal and HPB systems. When I am not involved in clinical duties, I enjoy a wide variety of outdoor activities with my family, which includes my wife Adiaha, and our two children, Sophia and Ariya.
