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 thought I would never find another Doctor as good as my last Doctor that I had seen for 15 years but I got lucky when my family recommended Dr Rolando Yarritu. Great staff, great bedside manners, intelligent and so knowledgeable. I am so happy having my medical issues addressed by this doctor and his staff. Thank you

Dr. Yarritu has been my doctor since I was 8. I am now 54. He is a very experienced and empathic doctor. He is a traditional doctor and very thorough on his examinations. I would never even think of seeing anyone else. He was also my parents doctor until they passed of old age. He also sees a number of my brothers and sisters. I highly recommend him.

I'm not one to get sick all the time. The few times that I have needed to see this doctor in the passed two years, I've been tossed to whichever PA is available. I never thought anything of it until yesterday when I needed some forms filled out. I was literally yelled at by the clinic manager when I requested this. Verbatim, "You've never even seen Dr. Yarritu...he doesn't even know you." How is this my fault? Last I checked, he still billed my insurance and took my copay. Unacceptable.

I have been to this Dr's office 4 times but will not be returning. I have never been seen close to my appt. time, even when arriving 20-30 mins early. You sit in extremely cramped rooms, due to his office having 8+ of them in a small space, for one Dr. mind you, no PA's or other Dr's. His staff is short and seems to be frustrated all the time, and I have yet to receive a callback on multiple promises from his team. No next steps, no answers on blood work. This Dr is completely overworked.

Dr Yarritu is an excellent doctor. He is very passionate and dedicated to his patients. He also takes his time in explaining, but most of all, he creates such a warm environment. If you are looking for a doctor, I highly recommend Dr Yarritu.

I like dr yarritu a lot. He is very down to earth. He will listen to you, and is willing to try different ways to deal with a sickness. He dedicates more time to me than any other doctor i have see, and i have seen many in my life ( i'm in my sixties). He speaks excellent spanish and english.
