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.

Compassionate total care, mind, body, and spirit.
As my wife and I face a new, intense, emergency mental health situation, Dr Vrielink has been a truly compassionate Christian psychiatrist who took the time to understand and treat the whole situation. Mind, body, spirit, and even spouse and family situations. Thank you Dr. Vrielink for your excellent work. We are better because of your excellent care.

I appreciate Dr. Vrielink's appraoch to psychatriatry. I have met other psychatrists and nurse practioners who were not willing to listen. Dr V listens to my concerns and while we talk about meds he offers some counseling. His counseling during my med reviews has helped me grow in my profession as a teacher. I have found his integration with Christianity and psychatriaty to be beneficial. Before when I saw other physicans, even if the meds seemed to be right, the lack of counseling left me hopeless. Dr. V acts like a mentor in which he listens to my concerns, he's empathetic and he helps me problem solve. I also appreicate doctors who share a bit about themselves like their hobbies, it makes them see more human. The fact he shares some information about himself, he's empathetic, caring, truly listens and helps me problem solve makes him the right doctor for me. By talking about faith it gives me hope. I feel safe talking with him and my mental health has greatly improved.

Dr. Vrielink is an excellent doctor. He is compassionate and truly cares about the well being of his patients, which is evident in the time that he takes to get know you and to listen to you during your office visit. Having a doctor who utilizes your feedback instead of pushing multiple prescriptions in your hand while pushing you out the door has been a wonderfully new experience. Yes, Dr. Vrielink has a strong faith in God, but he does not push it onto you. As someone who shares faith in God, it is great to have a doctor that has encouraged that faith for healing. I have never been to a doctor who is more professional, more caring, and more respectful of me as a person than Dr. Vrielink.

We have been with Dr. Vrielink for two years and have been pleased with the care we have received. He is very caring and compassionate. We had not been with a psychiatrist, only a nurse practioner and we were not getting the help we needed. Dr. Jeff needed to start over with meds. and it took awhile for things to get evened out. But things are going well now. We have found it helpful to have our list of questions ready ahead of time. Rich, Indiana

I came to Dr Vrielink after my psychiatrist moved to Zeeland. I saw my first Dr for over 5 years until he moved out of area. When I came to Veritas, Dr Vrielink taught me about my disorder and about each med I was on. He cares about his patients~ each and every one. I highly recommend Dr V.

Dr. V will take the time to get you know you as an individual and is always looking for ways to improve your treatment plan. I am not very religious and he is respectful of that. He is very thorough with explaining the science behind your diagnosis and is happy to answer questions.

At Veritas we integrate all three aspects of our being: Mind, Body, and Spirit. Most psychiatrists address only the first two dimensions. At Veritas we address root causes of symptoms, spiritual issues (unresolved anger, bitterness, unforgiveness, guilt, shame), and simplify medications to improve your quality of life.
