Van den Berg Lucretia Dr

She is so thorough and so helpful, an advocate for my health, and extremely professional. I highly recommend Dr. Vandenberg to anyone and I am glad that I was able to see her.

She's an excellent doctor and when I see her Its like visiting with good friend

This Dr has given my husband the run around since day 1. She was extremely condescending in his first phone appointment, dissmissive of his questions about more recent diabetic treatments, and even refused to help with necessary paperwork. In addition to this, she has rescheduled his follow up appointment 3 times. My husband had to book a day off work just to attend an appoitment in person which she didn't even show up for resulting in a loss of pay for our family. Its disgraceful that our system permits Drs to get away with mistreatment of patients. No standard of care at all. I cannot believe this person is even allowed to practice medicine with this clear neglect for patients needing care. Given other reviews its obviously a pattern. Would NOT recommend

Dr Lucretia van den Berg is a quiet spoken, gentle, caring person. She's practical and extremely thorough.

Open, think outside the box, care about how you feel more then lab values" great endocrinologist!"

I went to this doctor for weight loss. Diet and exercise had not affected my weight in 4+ years after an initial loss of 30 lbs. In an earlier session, one drug suggested was liraglutide (aka Saxsenda). On my return, she ordered a list of blood tests to assess my glucose, testosterone and other factors. The blood clinic in the region allows patients to log in to see their blood work directly. I did that and extrapolated that my testosterone was abnormally low.When I sat down next with the doctor, she loaded up a Saxenda injector pen and instructed me to take a shot. I am very leery of injecting unknown substances into my body. I asked what the method of interaction was and what the drug would do. She basically said, it's for weight loss." I took the shot. I asked her about my testosterone levels how that factored in. She was unaware of the test results until I alerted her that they were available.That medication costs something like $800+ per month-- not a trivial undertaking. I had lots of side effects and not much weight loss.I saw her again and said that I was having a lot of side effects. She prescribed Contrave. Again: I asked "what is the method of action" and "what are the side effects." She again said

Dr Vandenberg has always been great and informative with me every time

I was pleasantly surprised how personable she is. She specializes in weight loss and definitely knows that area extremely well.

ran my partner around a tree, subverting the treatment that they desperately needed. Ultimately ended up ignoring them completely after taking them on as a patient.

Not sure about these negative comments this doctor is receiving, but I have had nothing but excellent professional care.She took tge time to explain what the cause of my pain was, options to correct the issue, any cost that might be involved, risk factors etc.
