Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I am very disappointed with Dr Yu.My daughters have seen her since they were born & my oldest has been misdiagnosed since Spring of this year.She was so quick to give my daughter meds without even doing blood work.I had even asked her if it should be done since I felt like we were putting a band aid on something vs getting to the root of the problem.I was told to try this first. Fast forward several months I got another appt so they would order labs.This time I explained the issues my daughter was having & she automatically went to ADHD.I shook my head & told her I think we're still missing something,this didn't make sense esp since I hadn't seen these tendencies before?!Dr Yu than basically shammed me for wanting the blood work,even mocked me asking if I was wanting something else to be wrong.I told her I was advocating for my child & what she diagnosed didn't make sense.Thank God I pushed for labs to be done bc my daughter is suffering from Graves & would have gone unknown:(

Dr. You has been my pediatrician for 19 years. She is one of the kindest people I’ve ever met. She cares so much about each of her patients. She allows you to ask any questions and her answers are always thorough and understandable. Her nurses are great too. Everyone in her office is so kind and helpful. I’d 100% recommend Dr. Yu to anyone!

Dr. Yu is awesome. She is a five star doctor. We have been with her for 17 years and she is always amazing and engages kids. She listens well and takes plenty of time to hear your concerns. The reason I give a 4 star is there is always a significant wait time at every visit.

Dr. Yu was recommended to me and I am glad I chose her. She is hilarious. She doesn't act like a busy doctor who talks over people. She acts like a real person and loves to share her experiences about raising her children with us. She is smart and I trust her judgment. I am a nurse and bedside manner means a lot to me. She is fantastic and I would recommend her to anyone.
