"Dr. Vaccaro is THE most extraordinary care provider I know. Knowledgeable, patient, solution motivated, warm and honest, Christine Vaccaro has changed my menopausal life in so many positive ways. First, I am better informed about my body and the science around women’s aging. Second, I have better solutions to address severe GSM and in turn, pleasure. It has been very easy to discuss personal things because she puts me at ease asking detailed questions.
Incidentally, not one of my previous (& multiple) menopause providers had asked about some things Dr. Vaccaro wanted to know in order to personalize my care. I sought her out (the best of the best) because I was so discouraged that I wasn’t improving. Dr. Vaccaro’s knowledge, empathy and style is what sets her above and apart. Third, at a time when medical professionals are stretched, Dr. Vaccaro and her team of assistants are available, responsive and empathetic. Finally, following Dr. Vaccaro on social media has informed me about her reliable networks and trustworthy colleagues. Some great pearls of wisdom - many of which are free- all in the name of healthy, pleasurable and vibrant aging.
Absolutely the best investment I have made in myself was driving 20 hours to see Dr. Vaccaro and it keeps getting better."

"I cannot recommend Dr. Vaccaro highly enough! After two frustrating and disappointing experiences with other doctors, I was hesitant and nervous about my appointment. However, Dr. Vaccaro completely changed my outlook. She was patient, kind, and incredibly knowledgeable. She took the time to listen to me and truly *hear* what I was saying, which is such a rare quality.
Her approach was thorough, yet her warm sense of humor put me at ease right away. She not only answered my questions but taught me things I wish I’d known for years. For the first time in a long time, I felt hopeful. Together, we developed a clear and actionable plan that I’m confident will make a difference.
This was the best money I’ve spent on myself in years. Dr. Vaccaro is a gem, and I’m so grateful I found her. If you’re looking for a compassionate and skilled doctor who truly cares, look no further!"

"As a local sex therapist I know Dr Rubin and her team are the best in the country. They are the most informed doctors on menopause education and sexual health. I received a very thorough exam and comprehensive education about my options from Dr Vaccaro which was unavailable from my regular gynecologist. Dr Vaccaro has a wonderful bedside manner, is easy to talk to and makes you feel comfortable every step of the way!"

"I was fortunate to get an appointment with Dr. Vaccaro when she joined the practice in September. My first appointment with her made me feel truly heard and validated. She asked me questions that no other Doctor has ever asked me. My mind was blown by the education and information she gave me. I have struggled with peri menopausal symptoms for over 10 years. For the first time I feel hopeful that my treatment will be individualized to my needs. Thank you!!"
