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.

My visit was nice, everyone was helpful and considerate. The visit was on time and everything was explained to me.

I was recommended to Dr. Yamaguchi to have my gallbladder removed from my Primary Care physician. I am so glad that they recommend me here. Dr. Yamaguchi is a very nice lady and answered all my questions! I would definitely come back to her if ever needed! Her whole office staff is pleasant!

Dr. Yamaguchi was absolutely amazing! Even though we are facing the Corona Virus, the wait time was next to zero. She was absolutely personable and made me feel reassured. She answered every single question that I had (and I had a large list) but she honestly had answered most of them before I could even ask them. She was able to schedule a port placement procedure that was considered "elective" from another local hospital. I knew that I couldnt start chemo without it so she completely put my fears at ease with a prompt appointment to get it handled. I would recommend her to everyone! She is simply amazing.

My wife, daughter, and I have been patients of Dr. Yamaguchi. My wife and I both have had lipomas removed by Dr. Yamaguchi and our daughter had gall bladder surgery. All of our experiences with the Dr. have been fabulous. She is professional, knowledgeable, and courteous at all times. I will be using her to remove additional lipomas. Her staff is fabulous to work with and always very helpful. I highly recommend anyone requiring a general surgeon to utilize Dr. Yamaguchi.

She is a great combination of knowledge and surgical skill as well as being friendly and informative. She guided me through a difficult time and explained everything thoroughly. At her suggestion I discovered I had a genetic issue. She recommended a double mastectomy and I totally agreed. My reconstruction looks great too.
