Dr. Vij was super nice, very attentive, and quick to provide my annual GYN exam. She let me ask questions and gave great recommendations. Staff was really friendly. I had a morning appt and only waited about 5 minutes. Will definitely go again!

My Ob/Gyn of 25 years had retired and her practice had a three month wait for an appointment. Since I didn't know anyone else at that practice, I decided to find another doctor. Dr. Vig was located close to my home, was well-rated, accepted my insurance, and I could get an appointment within a week, so I figured I would give her a try.
I waited for only a few minutes, which is pretty amazing considering they told me they were in the process of moving to another location and that was their last day at that office.
She and her nurse were both delightful. Katie was efficient, sympathetic, and funny. Dr. Vig listened to my concerns and gave me clear advice. She has a warm and friendly manner, and explained everything before she examined me.
I will be pleased to return to her for future exams and treatment.

Dr. Vij is wonderful! I have seen many ob-gyns, and she is by far the best. She makes you feel so comfortable, she has an excellent bedside manner. She thoroughly answered all of my questions and took time with me.

Dr. Vij and her team were very professional, educational, and caring. I will definitely recommend her to others. This was my initial visit, thus she did not have my medical background or records.
