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.

Unorganized mess
She is unorganized. Has highly inconvenient office hours. Always is running behind. Lab work never in. And just don’t feel like she cares. She takes forever to reply to messages.

Did not care about my son
Bluntly, Dr. Vanstone did not take my son as a priority-not a severe case or anything like that. We got bloodwork and bone age and it took at least a week for her to get back to me. I emailed and called twice with no responses. When I did got one, it was not even from her-it was someone else and they were not able to answer my specific questions. On our second visit, she went back and forth 'oh he is growing he is normal' then 'well yes not growing is not normal' so she just seemed all over. Maybe my son is fine and he doesnt need anything extra but she is not giving him the care he deserves. Hopefully other parents who get her will advocate for their children like I am trying to do because she will not give you the time of day.
