Great doctor. He was very blunt & to the point when I met him prior to my surgery. I appreciated him for putting my neck back together. I was told he was the best in NC & that is why my primary physician referred me to him. Going to miss you Dr. Craig. Blessings to you as you start the next chapter of your life journey!

Dr. VanDerVeer, For some reason I thought of you this morning and decided to Google you. How serendipitous that I should discover that you are retiring this year! I was a patient of yours in April 1989, when I was 16 years old. I was flown to Carolinas Medical Center from Lancaster, SC, after suffering a TBI. You were the physician who cared for me during that time and the ensuing year. I made a full recovery and am doing well today. So, I want to thank you once again for the excellent care you provided for me and all the thousands of patients you’ve served over the years. Congratulations on your retirement, I wish you many years of love, happiness and fulfillment in this new season of life. Blessings to you, keep going…
