Dr. Yun was able to analyze and remedy my ear condition very quickly! Very professional and highly recommended!
I enjoyed my visit with Dr. Yun. Dr. Yun was quick yet attentive and most importantly professional. He given me two options for my “cauliflower ear” which was caused from training Brazilian jiu jitsu and went with the most simple procedure: draining my ear (the blood clot) over the first option of stitching my ear (probably base the decision on severity). I would recommend him and come back. He appears to be booked/busy; however, as his patient, he didn’t rush the procedure or my time. Dr. Yun also advised me to call back if my ear gets plump again and if he is booked have the reception/front desk page him.

I went in for a ear wax cleaning. Which was done in less than 5 minutes. I am not allowed to write the price in the review here. But I can tell you this: It was really expensive! I paid fifty percent more than I pay for dental cleaning at my fancy Beverly Hills dentist's practice. Given how simple the procedure is, I will go to someone less expensive next time.
Verified patient
Great doc! Very nice guy, precise, professional, to the point, and also empathetic. This is a rare and welcome mix of traits.
He took his time and listened to me. He explained everything very well. He was very informative. I did not feel rushed by him. He was very nice and easy to talk to. His office staff are very nice also.
I felt that Dr. Yun had very little interest in trying to find a solution to my problem. He saw me in great discomfort and pain but remained very cold and indifferent. It was obvious that he wanted the wrap up the appointment within the 5 minutes that he sat down.
Verified patient
Not a fan of the building or surrounding area.
Doctor Yun and his staff are great. The ZocDoc form patient info form I filled out was not to seen at the Doctor's office. They said it didn't matter because the ZocDoc form doesn't have the barcode on them. Not a big deal, but a waste of my time.
Que veía a un muy buen profesional, muy eficiente
Verified patient
I went in looking for help on the way I was feeling, I left feeling, I wasn't given the time nor concern from the doctor. It felt short, and didn't do much at all. Not sure if I would recommend, needs to be more attentive and show a desire to help.
Verified patient
After seeing multiple drs previously, Dr Yun quickly identified the problem and started treatment - he explained costs and everything he was going to do in the procedure. He was honest, straightforward and efficient. In future I will make Dr Yun my first stop if I have any ENT issues.
Verified patient
Wait time was over an hour. Doctor was great.
Verified patient
He's a good doctor but he rush too much.
Verified patient
He is professional. Office staff is friendly. I was the first appointment so was hoping for 0 wait time but still had to wait 30 minutes. Dr. Yun is knowledgeable and speaks in common terms. He is not the best doctor I have seen but not the worst either.
was not being carefull with patient
Verified patient
Dr Yun is great. He is responsive and kind in his approach. Most importantly, though, he has provided great care and management to my medical concerns and I feel that he does as much as he can at each visit rather than limiting our time and prolonging care.
Great visit, information.
Verified patient
Dr. Yun was very thorough when explaining treatment plans. I didn't feel rushed and I was able to give a quick background before he started the check up. I would definitely see him again if need be.
Really liked Dr. Yun - he took the time to explain what was happening and assured me that he would help me figure out what's wrong with my ear.
I made the appointment on ZocDoc and it was confirmed. When I arrived for the appointment I was told that they did not have me on the schedule. Fortunately, they managed to fit me in.
Verified patient
Great. Very personable. Very attentive and focused on every symptom/ detail you provided regarding your reason for visit. Was thorough regarding the advice and options about what I could do to help my condition. Was also not the type of doctor to push surgery or something unreasonable. Was realistic about some of the options not being full proof. The wait time didn't bother me. In general if you're seeing a very skilled and highly acclaimed doctor you should be waiting awhile to see him. Otherwise he/ she is rushing through his job with other patients and will do the same with you. Waiting for a long time as a new patient is pretty standard in any area of practice at a doctor's office. Highly recommend. Thanks!
Verified patient
I went in to investigate a fluttering in my eardrum. Dr. Yun performed a routine ear inspection and assured me that it was merely a muscle spasm due to stress, caffeine or loud noises (or a combination of all). I'm guilty on all counts. Left with a clear conscience and a clean bill of health in less than 10mins. Great experience.
Verified patient
Very impressive office visit. I was greeted by name and only waited a short time while I completed my paperwork. Dr. Yun was very personable and had great "chair" side manners. All of the staff were very courteous and professional.
Very nice.
Great doctor! I went into the office with a list of questions and Dr. Yun was nice enough to answer them all. The office staff was super nice.
