Dr. Bethany L Vanderzwaag

Horrible doctor. Does not listen.

She was absolutely terrible.

Horrible!! She doesn't listen and the meds she prescribes dont work. It's a pain to get refills from her.

Great general practitioner

Went to her for about 5 months went through a few different SRI's they were horrible gave me nightmares, night terrors, involuntary muscle spasms, insomnia. When the Selexa made me sick and feel all these horrible symptoms she would just up my dosage and it would almost seem she wasn't really paying attention to me she already had her selexa and other SRI's locked and loaded for me. I just hope I can get to someone and let them know yes SRI's calmed me down because they made me numb not care about anything not to mention other horrible side effects. They will tell you give it a few weeks well I could get used to a lot of things if I ride it out a few weeks, you could tell anyone that someone who just was divorced hey give it a couple weeks you will feel better. I get it has to get in your system but what about people who had no problem before they had a yearlong battle with bone cancer and skull surgery head radiation. What if I just need a vallum because you have no idea what it is like to have a disfigured head from when they opened your skull and pulled your eye out of your head multiple times. She is just as guilty as any other doctor to afraid to prescribe something that will help because it could potentially be abused well I would rather take vallum or ambien and get dependent on it than be at home throwing myself against the wall for surviving my battle only as 1/4 of the the man I was. I truly believe she has no confidence to make her own decisions she hears depressed or anxiety and goes to her script of what she thinks others want her to try it is politics and money so sad. Our last session I started to explain how horrible I felt on the medicine and she actually interrupted me which leads me to believe yes she does not actually pay attention.

Very comfortable to talk to. You feel like your a person and important.

Nothing good to say .
