Bio
Dr. Baker oversees the Riverside’s growth and expansion through strategic acquisitions, new location openings and the recruitment of top medical specialists. Under his direction and leadership, Riverside has launched several new service lines including ENT, Gastroenterology, Behavioral and Mental Health and Allergy/Immunology. He believes that the business of healthcare must start first with high quality care, and then you will achieve the Iron Triangle of Healthcare (Quality, Access, Affordability).
Constantly striving to deliver patient-centric, holistic care, Dr. Omar Baker developed the pediatric clinical protocols for the group. He has worked tirelessly to establish a standardized care delivery model to facilitate better medical outcomes. Dr. Omar Baker is responsible for implementing several population health initiatives to identify gaps of care, determine actionable change and accurately measure improvement. Under his direction, Riverside provides the same standard of care to every patient regardless of their income or insurance. Under his leadership, not only does Riverside provide its patients 24/7 access to care, the care provided is excellent in all 85 locations. Dr. Omar Baker developed monthly mandatory continuing education C.A.R.E.S (Culture, Access, Results, Empathetic, Satisfaction) Seminars for all 200+ medical providers and 1,200+ employees to reinforce the core principals and infrastructure that allow for optimal care delivery. It is his goal to make Riverside’s care delivery model scalable, customizable and nationally relevant.
Notably, Dr. Omar Baker was the recipient of New Jersey’s prestigious NJBiz Forty Under 40 Award in 2017. The publication notes, “These up-and-coming stars of the New Jersey business community have achieved professional excellence at a young age, representing the future of their industries and the state as a whole.” Additionally, on September 19, 2017, Dr. Omar Baker lead the clinical component panel of the New Jersey Hospital Association and New Jersey State Bar Association’s annual joint meeting which focused on the growing Opioid Epidemic in America.

Dr. Baker’s late mother, Mrs. Izdihar Baker, was dedicated to community service and she is the inspiration behind his initiatives on free patient, staff and provider education. Dr. Omar Baker and his wife established a Patient Assistance Fund at the Joseph M. Sanzari Children’s Hospital to help ease the burden of medical expenses on families with children afflicted by chronic diseases.
Committed to transforming healthcare in New Jersey, Dr. Omar Baker has a leading voice in prominent organizations and advocacy groups. Dr. Baker was the Co-Chair of the Healthcare Transition Committee to Governor Phil Murphy. The committee delivered a comprehensive report of recommendations which outlines the necessary priorities to improve New Jersey’s healthcare system. Dr. Baker is currently an Advisory Board Member for the New Jersey Innovation Institute, a Council Member for NJ Health Care Quality Institute, and he is on the Admissions Committee for the Seton Hall Hackensack Meridian School of Medicine. Omar Baker, MD is Board Certified in Pediatrics and is a Fellow of the American Academy of Pediatrics. Dr. Omar Baker received his undergraduate and medical degrees from The George Washington University and completed his residency in Pediatrics at NYU Medical Center.
Our current healthcare delivery system is operating sub-optimally. 40 to 60 % of patients receive inappropriate care (Lilian Snodgrass, Becker’s Hospital Review, July 31, 2018).”We have been cowboys when what patients need are pit crews,” surgeon and best- selling author, Dr. Atul Gawande was quoted saying at the American Academy of Physician Assistants IMPACT meeting (Nicole Blazek, Patients need pit crew, not cowboys, Clinical Advisor, 2014).
“What we surmise from this remark, other notable works that Dr. Gawande has published and his TED Talks is that for healthcare to successfully transform patient experience and outcomes, we must promote a culture of cohesiveness, coordinated systems, using Big data, using checklist (aka mistake-proofing in Lean Six Sigma lingo) to standardize delivery (as discussed in great detail by Dr. Gawande in his published books like The Checklist Manifesto), fostering stakeholder buy-in from all the players that affect the end-to-end process of delivering care, and applying change management to foster physicians’ pact with administrators. To this end, we are honored and thrilled that Mohamed Saleh, Sr. Director of Operational Excellence at Hartford Healthcare, one of the Tristate’s leading healthcare organizations has accepted to speak with us at this event and share their success and war stories in leveraging some of these same principles to drive dramatic improvements in quality, efficiency, and safety while reducing cost,“ said Lilian Snodgrass, a senior principal of aVM Health. “It is incredibly important that all the players in the value chain of providing patient care come together from within and outside their immediate organization to interact and collaborate in our joint endeavor to positively change healthcare delivery for the better. The speakers at this event represent many facets of healthcare functions and this notion.”
Learn more about these principles in the Becker's Health article written by Lilian Snodgrass in the link below and gain more insights about how to apply these principles at this Event in Fall.
