Insurances accepted
Baylor Scott & White has established agreements with several types of insurance to ensure your health needs are covered.
Insurance listings are subject to change without prior notice.
Please call your physician's office or your health or insurance plan to verify coverage information prior to scheduling your visit or procedure. Not all members participating in contracted networks have "in network" access. In network participation may change from time to time without prior notice. Independent providers (which could include, for example only, anesthesiologists, radiologists, pathologists, emergency medicine physicians, advance practice professionals, and other independent providers of health care services) may deliver part of your care, and such providers may be considered out-of-network on your health and insurance plans even if the Facility may be considered in network. If you desire additional information as to the providers who may be involved in providing your care, you can either ask your treating provider (who may know some of the specialists or groups who could be involved) or you can request a list of Facility-based physician groups by calling the following toll free number: (877) 810-0372. This list is updated annually and is subject to change without prior notice.
Please contact your provider to confirm if your insurance is accepted.

Patients appreciate
Dr. Vanessa Sarfoh receives overwhelmingly positive feedback from patients who consistently praise her exceptional bedside manner and interpersonal skills. Patients repeatedly describe her as caring, compassionate, kind, and genuinely invested in their wellbeing. She is frequently commended for taking time to listen attentively to patient concerns, never rushing appointments, and making patients feel comfortable and at ease. Her communication skills stand out, with numerous reviews highlighting how she explains procedures and medical information thoroughly using understandable language and answering all questions patiently. Patients particularly appreciate her expertise in women's health, including hormone therapy, high-risk pregnancies, and general OB/GYN care.

Several patients mention she is the best OB/GYN they have ever had, with multiple reviews expressing that they trust her completely and would never want to change providers.
Patients also share
The reviews reveal very few areas for improvement, with virtually no negative feedback about Dr. Sarfoh's clinical care or patient interactions. The most significant concern expressed by patients is not about her performance but rather about her departure from the Brenham location, with one heartbroken patient questioning what Baylor Scott and White could have done differently to retain her. One patient whose first language is not English noted that while Dr. Sarfoh does her best to communicate clearly and calmly, there may be minor language barrier considerations, though this reviewer still expressed complete trust in her care. Otherwise, the reviews contain no substantive complaints or suggestions for improvement regarding her medical skills, bedside manner, or practice operations.
