What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
Dr Vanketram always seems to have my best interest in sight and works tirelessly towards meeting and exceeding my goals, shifting direction with every curveball we have received. I have had appointments with two other Rheumatologists, and I would give them a score of 0 if I could. So I do not give praise where it is not warranted. Overall I'm very happy with the progress we've made, and very pleased that "good" isn't good enough for Dr Vanketram.
