About Me
Linnea Baker is a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner who has cared for patients across the lifespan. With over 28 years of nursing experience, she has specialized in critical care, trauma, heart disease, electrophysiology, and pediatrics. Her husband's military career allowed her the opportunity to serve diverse populations across the country, including in Hawaii.
In 2017, Linnea was honored as the Top 5th Medical Provider in the U.S. Army, globally, while working as a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner at Reynolds Army Health Clinic, Fort Sill.
Linnea became a Certified Health & Wellbeing Coach in August 2023. Her lifelong passion for holistic health and wellness began with martial arts training as a child and has continued to shape her approach to medicine. Understanding the importance of caring for the mind, body, and spirit, Linnea transitioned from military pediatric care to focus on health prevention, lifestyle medicine, and empowering others to improve their quality of life.
Her expertise has led to speaking engagements with the RWND Fitness Group (January 2023), the podcast “A Winning Moment with the Winn's” (April 2023), the Lawton Business Women's Luncheon (January 2024), and the international podcast “Live Differently” (Australia, November 2025).
Linnea is excited to join the Carter Dermatology team and continue serving the community with compassion, curiosity, and a holistic lens.
Originally from New York, Linnea is married and the proud mother of four children and grandmother of two. She enjoys hiking, paddle boarding, traveling, teaching, and engaging in community service.
