I think Dr. Yu was very understanding of my condition and sincerely wants me to get better, unlike some doctors who just throw medications at you hoping that one sticks. I've seen a lot of neurologists and he is, by far, one of the best.

If I could give six stars I would. Dr. Yu was very intuitive, polite, had a good sense of humor, and was very willing to listen to my concerns. He is willing to research my symptoms and find the best treatment for me without bandaiding my concerns. I am so thankful I found him. He gives me faith in the medical profession once again.
