Dr. Teresa Yanchak, MD

Kind, friendly, listens, and doesn't rush the appointment. Very calming. Patient oriented. Happy to have Dr. Yanchak as my Doctor!

Overall, my visit was very informative and Dr. Yanchak was kind & friendly. To the suggestion of and referral by my PCP, I came to Dr. Yanchak for a 2nd opinion regarding a recommended test from a previous Gastroenterologist for which my PCP didn't think was necessary. I was told by the office staff that I needed to transfer my care from my previous Gastroenterologist in order to obtain the 2nd opinion. I was ok about this. Dr. Yanchak agreed with my PCP, she also did not recommend the test & explained her reason. She kindly offered a referral to a surgeon for a consult, also confirming it was fine to wait and see how I do until our next appointment in a couple months, as my symptoms are very infrequent.

easy to talk to and quickly answered all my questions.

Her willingness to listen and compassion.

I really appreciate that Dr. Yanchak takes the time to talk and listen to a patient. She is very personable and easy to communicate with. She is very open to how the patient wants to proceed with further testing and care.

Happy to find a Gastroenterologist who really listens and cares. She is very informed and pays close atention to patients concerns. I have had a bad experience with a previous Gastroenterologist who did not follow up on patient care and had a very uncaring office staff. Dr. Yanchak is a blessing along with her office staff.

Met the doctor. Felt I was in two different conversations. Primary care physician figured out the problem. Dr. Yanchak's solution was a colonoscopy, which had nothing to do with the complaint. Look else ware (unless you need a colonoscopy)

Terrible bed side manners. No care in the world for any one who's in pain all day everyday after running the bare minimum of tests.

Colonoscopy procedures are a challenge for patients! Dr Yanchak and her team made this tolerable and decent. They are all patient, nice and explained everything perfectly!

Dr. Teresa Yanchak was excellent in my recent Colonoscopy; she and her team were all great, and I'd recommend her to all. In my case, the preparation was well-planned and effective. The needed paperwork was easy to complete. All the staff were super competent and gracious. The actual procedure was excellently choreographed; the receptionist, the nurses, the anesthesiologist, and of course, Dr. Yanchak, were all absolutely great! Of the three such procedures I have had, this one was the easiest, and most comfortable (and comforting!) of them all. Thank you, Dr. Yanchak, and Associates in Gastroenterology, in Colorado Springs!

I had an Upper GI Endoscopy by Dr. Yanchak. The pre-treatment explanation was very good, and the procedure was excellent. There were no aftereffects. Very pleased with Dr. Yanchak and the anesthesiologist.
