“There is nothing more rewarding than empowering patients to make decisions about their health care. Taking time to teach patients about their diagnosis and treatment options allows us to work as a team to make a care plan they can be comfortable with.”
Dr. VanDlac is a board-certified urologist who joined The Oregon Clinic after graduating from her urology residency at Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU). She has been serving the greater Portland community since 2016. In addition to caring for patients, she also serves as the Chair of Urology at Providence Portland Medical Center. She has received the honor of being recognized as a Portland Top Doc for urology year over year since 2020.
When Dr. VanDlac is not in the office, she can be found spending time outdoors with her husband and two sons. She enjoys mountain biking, skiing, hiking, and traveling.
