Dr. Dustyn Baker most recently completed her residency in Internal Medicine at the University of Chicago Medical Center, Chicago, IL. Her current focus on public health policy is related to the fact that Chicago is one of the top two cities in the U.S. with regards to hospitalization and deaths of asthmatics. This concern led her to help launch the Chicago BREATHE project, whose mission was to increase health literacy related to asthma and medical adherence for the largely black South Chicago population. Dr. Baker interned at the Department of Health and Human Services in Washington, D.C. as a program analyst after the passage of the Medicare Modernization Act. During that time, she was also selected as a Government Relations Intern for the American Medical Association. She has also held several leadership positions including Student Advisor to the Board of Trustees at University of North Carolina – Chapel Hill. Dr. Baker received her medical degree from Duke University Medical School, Durham, NC in 2007.
