Verified patient
this worked
The wait was minimal, and the appointment went smoothly - it felt slightly rushed, but I can understand that doctors are busy. I was unsure if there was meant to be more examination for my foot, but my experience with Dr. Yamashita was very pleasant. She offered very helpful and honest advice and recommendations, and listened actively to my questions. My main complaint was with the initial intake by the nurse/medical assistant. I don't feel as though it was very thorough as I was not asked if I was on any medications, and I'm never sure if any of my forms or things I'm forced to fill out are ever read or recorded properly.
Really great experience with dr yamashita. She’s so kind and took the time to explain everything thoroughly and listen to me. Would definitely recommend!
Verified patient
Such a great experience! The doctor really listened to all my concerns and questions. She even took time to show me what shoes would be best for me and what the next steps would be.
Verified patient
Dr Yamashita has a very kind and compassionate bedside manner. She was open to collaborating with me regarding a plan of care, and I didn’t feel like she was trying to upsell me any equipment unnecessarily. I appreciated her honesty and the level of care during the appointment.
Verified patient
The appointment went smoothly. The office contacted me to give me directions and make sure I was still coming in. The visit with the doctor was great and I felt heard and not rushed. We were able to continue with the needed procedures and followups with ease.
Dr.Yamashita was so kind, considerate and she took the time to listen and explain very well. The office is very clean and the staff is very kind as well. It was a very pleasant visit and appointment. Thank you!

Awesome experience!!!!
Verified patient
This doctor is great but the office is horrendous. They made an error in billing my insurance and have been impossible to reach from both myself and the insurance company. I would not recommend booking with this office unless you have endless hours available to be on the phone correcting errors or don’t care if you have to pay when your insurance denies services you didn’t even receive.
Verified patient
Was great service and I feel light has a feather with each step after Dr Dawn Yamashita worked on my foot. Very clear about what needed to be done and did it with care. Definitely didn’t feel rushed or just another patient sitting in the chair. So yes definitely will be back and highly recommend Dr Dawn Yamashita.

I was actually about 10 minutes late and was terrified they’d tell me I couldn’t be seen anymore but they still did, the patient registration took about 10 mins, after that I saw the nurse who asked basic questions, then went to the Doctor. She answered all my questions and explained clearly both options I had and her opinions on them. Everybody was friendly, so I would recommend.
