Schedule AppointmentPatient Care Philosophy
I believe in compassionate patient care, taking into account each patient’s individual needs and giving them a central role in their care. The best outcome is often achieved when patients and physicians work together towards a common goal that is specific to each patient’s needs and treatment goals. As a physician, I believe in not only providing patients with my professional guidance but also empowering patients with the information they need to then make the best decisions for themselves.

Dr. Vachon was one of the most pleasant and informative doctors I've ever had the pleasure to meet. I have been a pharmacist for over 40 years and cannot recall many health care professionals with such a caring attitude. She made my wife and myself comfortable asking the questions we wanted and provided clear direction and answers.

Dr. Vachon--I'm in my 80's and have problems with my stomach for years. Two visit with Dr.Vachon and she is the best of all. I'm new to the area, what a find I have in her. I had my OLD gastro doctor for over 40 yrs. He was great, but I have to say Dr. Vachon is better. Very CARING and listens to you.
