Patient Experience Reviews
Great
My experience with this provider was excellent. I had to have a *** exam and she explained the process before she started. She made me feel less anxious and not embarrassed. On top of that, she is a great listener and we had a lovely conversation.
Vicki Rumpler is an amazing practitioner. She is kind, considerate and extremely knowledgeable. Vicki addressed my concerns, explained the procedure and performed the procedure with only slight discomfort (which we talked about prior to the procedure) I cannot say enough about Vicki! In just a few visits she relieved me of extremely painful hemorrhoids that I had suffered with for years!
Everyone was extremely friendly and helpful. The doctor was one of the best I've seen.
I got to the appointment a little earlier and they took me in right away, everyone was very professional and helped ease my concerns about the upcoming procedure. I felt much better after talking to Vicki and Linda, they are just wonderful, Thanks.
PA Vicki Rumpler showed me overwhelming care and compassion. She took a lot of time with me and got me the help I needed. Dr *** and PA Vicki are exceptional. I am very grateful for their time and care.
Vickie Rumpler is the best PA I have ever seen. She listens, she cares, and it shows. I am so happy to have found Vickie, and Dr. *** for my surgery. Both are very caring. YOU ARE BETTER THAN ***!
She was so kind, patient and understanding and I was so relieved that she was such an excellent NP because I was very apprehensive about seeing another provider for my health issue after a terrible previous visit with another healthcare provider. I am grateful for her care.
This was the first time I had an appointment with Vicki Rumpler, I was extremely pleased with her and her team members, everyone was so very professional and very helpful and carrying for me and my problem.

Great
She was very thorough and explained things to me. Also, since I am hard of hearing, she made sure I understood .
Vicki Rumpler is a great Dr, she took her time answering all my questions and concerns
Excellent discussion of pros and cons of possible surgery. All aspects of possible procedure were given attention. I came away with the knowledge of how to proceed with whatever choice I made, and that if I had any further questions I could arrange to have them answered.
Excellent experience with Vicki and her student
Industry Relationships
University Hospitals is committed to transparency in our interactions with industry partners, such as pharmaceutical, biotech, or medical device companies. At UH, we disclose practitioner and their family members’ ownership and intellectual property rights that are or in the process of being commercialized. In addition, we disclose payments to employed practitioners of $5,000 or more from companies with which the practitioners interact as part of their professional activities. These practitioner-industry relationships assist in developing new drugs, devices and therapies and in providing medical education aimed at improving quality of care and enhancing clinical outcomes. At the same time, UH understands that these relationships may create a conflict of interest. In providing this information, UH desires to assist patients in talking with their practitioners about industry relationships and how those relationships may impact their medical care.
UH practitioners seek advance approval for certain new industry relationships. In addition, practitioners report their industry relationships and activities, as well as those of their immediate family members, to the UH Office of Outside Interests annually. We review these reports and implement management plans, as appropriate, to address conflicts of interest that may arise in connection with medical research, clinical care and purchasing decisions.
