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.

Dr. Yoo performed colorectal surgery on me a year and a half ago after being diagnosed with stage 3b colon cancer, removing several inches of my small large intestine. Dr. Yoo has excellent bedside manners, is personable, and professional. I couldn't have asked for a better surgeon. I recently had a colonoscopy and my port a catheter removed and have been told I don't need to be seen for another three years! Thank you, Dr. Yoo, for being a part of my fight against cancer!

This doctor did multiple surgeries for my mother that ended in much suffering and subsequent death in Cedar Sinai Medical Center on 7/7/2015. This surgeon was so sure of the initial procedure beforehand and did not warn me as a high risk procedure. It was poorly prepared with a urologist surgeon who had only stayed during the first 20 minutes of a 2 hour surgery. There was mass bleeding from her bladder which took them 4 days to detect after I had to call to remind him! Absolutely dreadful!
