More than 1 year agoInitials hidden
Dr. Yellin was EXTREMELY rude to me during my first (and last) visit. He asked questions in an aggressive, agitated tone. He appeared to have been upset that I didn’t come to the visit with my prior test results, even though I was not asked to bring them. He also became unreasonably frustrated when I said I was not under a orthopedics doctor care, and was still seeing a physical therapist. WHY WOULD THESE THINGS UPSET HIM?? He sat quickly firing off questions in this aggressive manner until I stood and exited his office. I never received any treatment from Dr Yellin that day. I still have much pain in both hands and feet. And now I must search for a new neurologist. As a disabled senior. I dont want to think this was racially motivated, However, I was the only person of color (African American), in his office that day, and the only one leaving almost in tears. I was appalled at Dr. Yellin's unprovoked rudness. I do not recommend him, and will never make another appointment with him.
December 22, 2023Andrea H.Verified patient
There was no wait for my appointment, staff was friendly and doctor was too.

October 17, 2023Ray R.Verified patient
What a wonderful doctor! Excellent communication and kind personality. I felt like he wanted to know a lot about me and he had a personal connection better than most doctors. Highly recommend!
September 21, 2023Kelly C.Verified patient
Dr. Yellin was INCREDIBLE. Seriously, he was so kind, understanding, willing to listen, and gentle. He let me explain everything I had concerns about in detail and asked amazing questions. I literally cannot recommend him enough.
