Since I only see this doctor based on my Crohn's disease, recommending would not be likely unless they were having they same issues--in which case I would definitely recommend this doctor!

Years ago Dr. Vandewall was my PCP and his manner of interacting with his patients then was the same as it is today. He is very interactive with his patients speaking clearly of your condition and the manner of treatment he would prescribe. He always listens to any of your concerns both regarding your condition and treatment. He routinely reviews your medical history and any testing that was performed.

Dr. Vandewall is an excellent rheumatologist. I have been seeing him since I was first diagnosed with RA in 2003. I have recommended him many times to family and friends when asked.
