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.

Very Knowledgeable Specialist
This is a new doctor for us. Met Dr Yu and his NP Maria Barrett while my husband was in hospital. Both made a good first impression by providing good information without rushing through the visit. Dr Barrett took her time through the follow up visit and was thorough in the questions she asked, information we received , tests she ordered and explaining the results of those tests. We feel very comfortable with the care level of this office.
