Testimonials
"My husband and I have been patients of Dr. Ogilvie's for over 10 years. He has recently begun a new way of practicing that is very exciting for himself and his patients! In this new and innovative way of doing medicine the patients are the clear winners. We now have on demand access to our doctor with same day appointments, telephone conferencing, and e-mails. Appointments now allow for "quality time" with our doctor. I feel that we were always superbly taken care of by Dr. Ogilvie, but now the care is stellar. I would highly recommend this program for someone who is looking for a top notch doctor with care that will make you feel like you’re his only patient."

"Dr. Ogilvie has been our family physician since he began his practice almost 10 years ago. When we became aware of the change in structure in his practice, the formation of Vantage Physicians, we were initially disheartened. We felt that financially it would not be beneficial to us.
Since office calls were already covered by our health insurance it seemed like we were paying twice for the same service. We came very close to changing doctors and had even scheduled an appointment with a new Doctor.
When the time came to change, we changed our mind and signed up with Vantage for one simple reason initially. Dr. Ogilvie was our doctor and a valued part or our family's support system. We trust him; we relate to the way he speaks to us but most of all, our history was with him. He is an excellent Dr. with a very unique, comforting style.
We have come to understand the value of the concept. First, it saves us money. We are busy and our time is valuable. This concept has eliminated our need to drive to his office as much as 80% of the time. We have been able to handle routine things over the telephone or email. We have found the additional time he has to spend with us invaluable. Because this is so very different from a typical practice it can be hard to relate to. As I look back at what I may have spent this money on, and compare it to the value in this program, I am proud of the decision we made. It is worth every penny.
An opportunity to make a financial decision that so greatly impacted the welfare of my family does not come along very often.
In addition, shortly after we signed up, we were impacted with a serious illness in our family. We do not know how we could cope without the services Vantage provides. Two to three times a week we pick up the phone and talk to our doctor...just like that. The improved quality of care and piece of mind as compared to traditional medical service cannot be measured. We take comfort in knowing my family has the very best."

"This practice, this new business model, and these doctors are the answer to my prayers! Frankly, they are the answer to everyone’s prayers, especially those with multiple or difficult to diagnose conditions.
It is so refreshing, and such a relief, to be able to sit down with your doctor and take the time that’s needed to address your issues fully. There is time to focus on the patient rather than some unrealistic, frenetic schedule. You can actually build a relationship with your doctor! Shocking, but true! This approach promotes thoroughness and is conducive to better analysis, diagnosis, and treatment of the patient and particular conditions. This is the place to feel comfortable as well as confident, that you will get the attention and treatment you need and deserve. I can’t imagine going anywhere else. Truly.
In addition, the nurses, staff, and lab tech (it’s so convenient to have a lab tech on site!) are a terrific team. They are knowledgeable, helpful, supportive, and kind. They are so accessible, both in person and on the phone. And a person answers the phone – not those frustrating and impersonal electronic phone trees. How cool is that?! This is a group of top-notch professionals. I see Dr. Kershisnik. She is kind, caring, compassionate, reassuring and smart, smart, smart. I always learn something new from her. She is insightful, resourceful, motivated, and relentless in the pursuit of answers and diagnoses. Dr. K is current with the latest medical developments and is especially good at diagnosing elusive, difficult, and complicated cases. I know this from personal experience – she succeeded where a host of other doctors failed or gave up trying. She is excellent at integrating disparate types of information and is clear and straightforward. She is open-minded to alternative disciplines and is very knowledgeable in nutrition and supplements – so necessary these days. She is supportive and encouraging – so much more effective than the remote and authoritative approach adopted by so many doctors. Erin and her staff have dramatically improved the quality of my life and I could not be more grateful."

"Are you frustrated with calling your physician and not getting past the receptionist, needing to get answers from the physician but never able to connect with him or her? How about the doctor office that you only have a machine answer which has you press all of the numbers and then to still never able to speak with a real live operator let alone the nurse of the physician? This is all in the past as this practice offers the one on one comprehensive individualized attention to the patient and their needs - back to the real caring, dedicated, and committed doctoring. I can honestly say I have called Dr. Ogilvie many times even at midnight and he answered the phone out of a dead sleep and Dr Ogilvie still was gracious to address my father's needs at that moment ...giving him quality, compassionate care. I am truly grateful to have been directed to this facility and physician.... as my father and the family have benefited in so many ways."

"We have really appreciated the comprehensive, personal approach Dr. Ogilvie and his staff takes to meet the medical needs of our father. Dr. Ogilvie not only takes time with the patient, but also talks and LISTENS to the family as well. He is thorough in answering our questions, and he goes the extra mile to consult with other doctors to make sure there is a clear understanding of Dad's condition and needs. We can honestly say Dr. Ogilvie is reachable 24 hours a day. Even at night, he is always gracious to address our father's needs, giving him quality, and compassionate care. We are truly grateful to have been directed to this Vantage facility."
