Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr Vanderheiden is an excellent doctor and knowledgeable in her field. Friendly and professional. Her staff is also friendly and courteous.

Dr. V Is Great!
I was first diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes in 1989 so 34 years ago. My diabetes has never been in good control—until Dr. Vanderheiden took over. My A1C went from 11 to my current 6.4. Dr. V takes the time needed to clearly and concisely explain exactly what I need to do. As I am deaf, that’s very important. This doctor really knows her stuff!
