Wait Time
Dr. Yager and his staff are professional as well as friendly. The wait is typically less than 5 minutes and they are always able to see me on short notice. Dr. Yager is very knowledgeable but he's old school in terms of his bedside manner - unrushed, engaged and is willing to spend as much time with you as you need. He genuinely seems to care. I highly recommend him.

Dr. Yager was awesome but his nurses are something else. The lady that drew my blood lacked confidence. It looks like that was her first time ever drawing blood. She was literally shaking and didn't know what to do I had to coach her through. At a point, I wanted to draw it myself. I asked if she wanted me to do it but I guess she was ashamed so she wanted to do it. My ac vein is almost half inch diameter and yet she missed it. I was pierced 2 time.
