Dickinson Ob-Gyn Assn

Dr. Mike is by far the best doctor I've ever been to. He is personable, honest, and actually cares about his patients, which is a rarity in the medical profession these days. He has always made me feel super comfortable, as well as his staff. And I never had to wait very long at all. After moving to a different city, I've been through 3 doctors and all of them have been horrible. Long waits, no empathy, and being treated like a number and not a patient. It has made me appreciate my experience with Dr. Mike so much more!! more

Dr Vandaele has very bad bedside manorism. Sent my 17 year old daughter for her well woman visit today and she left there in tears. She was told by Dr Vandaele that she was fat and needed to loose weight and join a gym. My daughter is 5'9 and not obese, she is a size 11, very perportioned, could maybe loose 5 pounds but NOT obese...she was crushed and upset in the way the Dr said to her to loose weight. As she was telling my daughter this my daughter saw a book in her office that said Russian never get fat! Dr Vandaele did not know what my daughter has been thru and the depression and bullying , for not being a small petite girl, maybe she should have asked some more questions before flat out telling her she was fat and loose weight. When we confronted her on the phone about it she was very much not concerned, and acted as if she did no wrong, She is not a dietician , she is a gynocologist, and she just assumed that my daughter over eatsor something, maybe she should have looked in her records to see maybe she gained a few pounds from the birth control she put her on !!!! We will not be back to her , more

Dr. Vandaele has been my physician for over 15 years.\r She delivered both of my children. She is very compassionate, caring and understanding. She is always interested in all in your well being. She is down to earth and easy to talk to. She is an excellent health care provider. more

I have been a patient of both Dr. Mike and Dr. Vandaele. While both physicians are incredibly popular in this community and both are quite competent in their expertise, I prefer Dr. Vandaele over Dr. Mike. She was warm , compassionate, informative and thorough. And I will definatley continue to be her patient. \r \r I saw Dr. Mike for several years and he was also very good but when I got older and started having menopausal symptoms, he was extremely unsympathetic. Instead of giving me encouragement he gave me attitude and made me feel horrible because I had gained some weight. My feelings do not get hurt very easy but he honestly made me feel horrible. \r \r I didn't go back for about 5 years and that is when I started seeing Dr. Vandaele. BIG DIFFERENCE!!! Cons: Small waiting area kind of dated more

I love this clinic. The doctors are wonderful, honest and helpful. The nursing staff is amazing to say the least. Dr. Vandaele is and has been my doctor for the past six years. She is the best; I went to her after she performed my mom's hysterectomy basically saving her life! She is thorough and easy to talk to, but please remember she is from Europe and tends to be blunt. If you are offended by the truth and honesty then she may not be the doctor for you, but if you want a doctor who will listen, help and provide you with excellent care there is not a better choice!!!! Pros: Great staff- doctors and nurses Cons: Small waiting area more

Dr. Vandaele was completely rude and unprofessional....a very hateful lady. The staff was super friendly and I heard the other doctor was great but Dr. V. just ruined it for me. I want a good experience throughout my pregnancy and prefer not to be intimidated each time I visit or call my doctor; needless to say, frustration and intimidation is all I felt after consults with her. Pros: staff was friendly Cons: beside manner of Dr. Vandaele more

Dr Mike is awesome! I never waited longer than 5-10 minutes to see him on my scheduled appointments. The staff are wonderful too. They are all so kind and generous. Dr Mike is the most honest doctor I think I've ever met. Make sure you really want to know the truth because he's gonna give it to ya!! haha! I will definately be back to see him in the future. He even did a wonderful c section to delivery my baby. The nurses at the hospital had nothing but good things to say about him as well. Dr Mike is the best!! Pros: you hardly ever have to wait to see the doctor, the nurses and doctors are down to earth but professional; honest; the list goes on... more

As far as these types of doctors go, it's hard enough to find one you can trust. The doctors at Dickinson Ob/Gyn are honest, empathetic and treat their patients with nothing but respect and kindness. You don't wait any longer than 5-10 minutes to see the doctor, and the nursing staff are all equally as courteous. Overall, I've never been disappointed with my visits. more
