We changed to Dr. Vander Zanden because she is an internal medicine doctor. She is extremely thorough which is exactly what we were looking for. She is a huge asset to Pro Health.

Could not have had a better experience. Both from doctor VZ and her assistant. I had planned appointments very close to the time that my blood pressure unexpectedly went up. I sent a message on MY CHART of the problem and VZ's assistant sent me a message and called me that they would like me to come in the next day. They had made the appointment for me. I called and verified. I showed up when requested and let them take care of me..........and they did. So glad they are part of my team.

Dr. Vander Zanden is wonderful and caring. She knows me and my health very well. I came to Delafield clinic just because of her.

This visit was a pre-op for upcoming knee surgery. Blood work was done. I sent a message when some irregularities showed up and Dr. VZ decided to do follow up blood work. Again I messaged, and was told she would get back to me in a couple of days and if it was serious someone would have let me know. She did not get back to me, 3 days went by so far. I did contact my orthopedic doctor and they did reassure me everything was ok. Just felt a bit slighted about all the blood work results. No big deal I guess just miscommunication.

I was new to Dr Vander Zanden. She knew my issues and made some important changes. I'm already feeling much better I feel fortunate to have her as my PCP. I look forward to seeing her in the future

The doctor noticed that I was in distress. She made arrangements for me to go to the cancer center to get hydrated. The office then made sure that I had arrived safely and was okay.

First time visit. While a good amount of time was spent with me with that enough time I'm going to go through all My medical issues and information with the Doctor. Resulting in the exam being a bit short /rushed. The time was needed and taken up getting down with medical issues and history.
