My daughter has been blessed to have a doctor who listens to her. He makes sure she knows what is going on with her health care and any precautions she needs to take by talking directly to her.

Dr. Vandevoorde is hands down one of the best providers that I have ever encountered. He helped diagnose and treat my daughter after we had already seen several doctors that weren't able to do that. My daughter has severe doctor anxiety and he immediately put her at ease. He is kind and very personable with not only my daughter, his patient, but also our family as a whole. He is knowledgeable, professional and very good at what he does. I cannot say enough good things about him.
