Patient Experience Reviews
Continues to be my favorite doctor. Navigating through life with our first child is challenging but I never feel dumb about asking questions here and I am always put to ease about any issues/questions/concerns I might have w my little one both with Dr Vacca and the triage nurses ( I almost always get lucky and have the same one, ***) super sweet and reassuring)
Dr. Vacca is always pleasant and takes great time out to listen and answer all of our concerns. We are happy we found her!
-Would be nice to have a wait list for avail apt if there are any cancellations, reschedule dates are a month out :/ but I also get it :) - always have a pleasant experience at this doc office :) and never feel dumb asking any questions
Dr. Vacca is the best of the best! She is the most kind, caring and understanding professional. We have been seeing her for years and we absolutely love her! It is actually noted on our chart we will only see her. She answers all my questions, explains everything to my understanding and she is just an overall amazing doctor.
My son has seen 3 providers at this office and all 3 have been fantastic. I am very impressed with the providers and all of the staff. I highly recommend this office to all of my family and friends who have little ones.
We had 3 extra children in the room for this appointment. Dr. Vacca and the entire staff were so kind about it.
Dr. Vacca always listens to and discusses issues and concerns. Provides recommendations and next steps for concerns. Very supportive. Fantastic doctor.
Industry Relationships
University Hospitals is committed to transparency in our interactions with industry partners, such as pharmaceutical, biotech, or medical device companies. At UH, we disclose practitioner and their family members’ ownership and intellectual property rights that are or in the process of being commercialized. In addition, we disclose payments to employed practitioners of $5,000 or more from companies with which the practitioners interact as part of their professional activities. These practitioner-industry relationships assist in developing new drugs, devices and therapies and in providing medical education aimed at improving quality of care and enhancing clinical outcomes. At the same time, UH understands that these relationships may create a conflict of interest. In providing this information, UH desires to assist patients in talking with their practitioners about industry relationships and how those relationships may impact their medical care.
UH practitioners seek advance approval for certain new industry relationships. In addition, practitioners report their industry relationships and activities, as well as those of their immediate family members, to the UH Office of Outside Interests annually. We review these reports and implement management plans, as appropriate, to address conflicts of interest that may arise in connection with medical research, clinical care and purchasing decisions.
