Laura Van Why, MD Dermatology, Internal Medicine in Fond Du Lac, WI

I fully rely on Dr. Van Why's expertise for my skin care.

She is very through and goes above and beyond

Very nice person as well as Great Dr.

The problem is with the time to get an appointment and confusion about a change in the date. I have also had trouble reaching the internal medicine department. For at least five times +, I called to set up an appointment, immediately got a message that staff was on calls then after waiting an extensive time was disconnected. Overall I have been very happy with service by providers once I get an appointment, but your communication system is terrible trying to get through for an appointment.

A very nice and caring provider.

I hope that she stays with SSM Health for a long time to come.

she is way overbooked, location is understaffed. almost a year for an appt and follow ups can be 1-3 months

She did a very good exam

Excellent doctor and respectful

She listened to my concerns and we were quickly aligned on a treatment plan.

Dr. Van Why has always been a caring and knowledgeable doctor. She is genuinely concerned about you. I drive over an hour to continue to receive cared and guidance from her.

She is easy to talk to and is very knowledgeable.

very considerate and supportive doctor and staff; covered everything well

Knows her stuff! Very caring.

I was sent as an urgent referral to dermatology. When I had originally called to get in, there was a large waiting list and I was unable to see anybody. I was also unable to see dermatology at another SSM location without a referral. So that was greatly disappointing. The only way I was able to get in to see her to treat my rash on my face that I had been dealing with for over a month was to get a referral from the express care clinic. The lack of providers that are able to see new patients is disappointing.

Dr Laura Van Why is a great doctor. I hope SSM can keep her because they seem to have lost a lot of good doctors over the years!

I’m very comfortable with her. Have been a patient for many years.

She is the BEST! I’m so grateful for her.

Extremely knowledgeable. Caring

see my previous post. the members of my family that are patients of hers are so thankful to have her for a doctor!!

She is simply an outstanding Doctor. I use to see her in Menomonee Falls & when she moved her practice to Fond Du Lac there was absolutely no question I wouldn’t continue to see Dr Van Why

I have been treated by Dr. Van Why before and she has always treated me with respect and kindness. She knew what had to be done and did it without hesitation. She informed me of what she was doing and why she was doing it.

very caring atmosphere

First impressions mean a lot and I immediately knew I will be in good hands with Dr Van Why. I was so sad to see Dr Schuster retire and was worried about finding someone else. Dr Van Why is amazing....no worries! So heppy!

Very professional

She is very caring and makes me feel at ease .

Awesome job

She is very thorough.

My yearly screening, I feel very confident about my health based on this visit but I know that if I have an issue Dr Van Why will be there for me

I can’t say enough positive things about her. She is really an asset for SSM. She is extremely knowledgeable and experienced and explains things very clearly.

We are very lucky that Dr Van Why chose to join SSM Health

She treats you as a person and makes sure you are taken care of.

Thank you again for the great service you provide. A nice comfortable and easy going experience.

Professional

I have already recommended her to another friend of mine that was looking to change doctors.

I am very grateful to Dr Van Why for her excellent. Dermatology health is critical to me due to inherited frail skin & a history of repeated severe sunburns from early childhood through young adulthood. She has routinely found both cancerous & precancerous issues overlooked by other professionals. She is outstanding.

Could not be more pleased.

Being a male patient, I was very comfortable with her all-body exam.

I am always very happy and satisfied with my visits with Laura B Van Why.

Very pleasant and thorough.

She was quick with the exam and made me feel at ease.

Explaining treatment options.

Wonderful doctor

Even though she is way over worked she never appears rushed. She devotes all her attention to whom ever she is treating. It is a shame that SSM cannot find another Dermatologist for the staff. When there is a waiting list of 1200 you know there is a serious issue.

Thorough, thoughtful provider.

Very professional, kind and caring.

I would not hesitate to recommend Dr. Van Why to others

Impressed with her as a person and as a doctor.

Caring, knowledgeable, thorough provider.

Again, Laura Van Why was very professional and I would highly recommend her, however, not many people will want to wait 8 months to get in and see her. Also, I did ask to be put on a cancellation list and during the 8 months waiting period, I never rec'd a call that there was a cancellation.

I liked how friendly she was and that she was so thorough

Dr L Van Why has been a blessing for me for she really looks I never had that being a cancer survivor thanks so much

Great medical care and very friendly. My only regret is that she’s too busy and getting in to see her is difficult. I had to wait 3 months for my initial appointment and 2 months for my procedure.

I hope SSM can keep her employed here. We need dermatologists!
