Dr. Vardo explains concepts clearly without overcomplicating. But more importantly, I feel she connects well with me and understands my goals and values.

I am a [redacted] year-old woman and this has been the best experience I've ever had with a gynecological team. [redacted] Dr Vardo has been absolutely stellar in her care, support, attentiveness and understanding. I feel completely seen, heard and believed by her and appreciate the high-quality collaborative care I am receiving from her and her team. I've already recommended her to family and friends and will continue to do so. Very grateful for this staff.

Dr. Vardo seems like one of the nicest and most understanding OBG lands I've ever met. She did not rush me. She was empathetic. She totally listened to all my concerns and put me at ease. She seemed very intelligent and patient. And when you're emotional and pregnant, you really want that. So it gave me a lot of confidence and I really appreciate Dr. Vardo.

Love Dr Vardo - always listens and it never feels like a rushed appointment. It's clear she reads the chart ahead of time to refresh herself of the patient and doesn't just assume she'll get the info out of the appointment. But she also remembers details about her patients, which makes it easier to communicate. I respect her expertise and attention to current research in her field.

Dr Vardo did a great job of explaining the procedure and what I should expect for cramping/discharge and that I could take ibuprofin or Tylenol. Her notes said that I was advised to avoid intercourse, douches and tampon use for three days - I was not told this but was glad the information was in the notes.
