Reviews
4.5 of 5 stars
30 Ratings, 9 ReviewsThe ratings and comments seen on provider profiles are gathered from patient surveys, which are conducted by an independent patient satisfaction organization called Press Ganey. Star ratings are only displayed for surveyed Overlake providers who have accumulated 30 or more survey responses in outpatient clinical settings. While we are committed to publishing both positive and negative comments, we also maintain a rigorous process to review and remove comments that are profane, libelous, unrelated to the provider, or violate patient privacy.

Dr VanKessel was very personable, reassuring and communicative throughout my entire visit. I felt well cared for. I left the visit feeling less worried, thanks to her style of communication. She is a very experienced gynecologist, and I am so thankful she is still at the practice after all of the changes their medical group went through. Please support her well, so she can continue to be sustained - and remain my doctor for years to come! Thank you!

The visit was very very quick. I think less than 3 minutes in the room. Felt like they were in a rush.

I had different experiences with my regular PA and MD, and the MD who was seeing me while my regular MD wasn't available. I would not give the substitute MD such high rates

My doctor listened, and for once did not feel rushed to leave.

Provider was knowledgeable but a bit condescending. Talked a lot about one of her other patients in a way which I thought was inappropriate. This made me trust her less
