“Dr. Yan may possibly be the best in her field. Extremely polite and her communication bestows utmost consideration and courtesy for patients, and any questions or concerns they may have before, during and even after their appointments with her. Although she was not the doctor for what I personally was seeking she was more than happy, willing and able to assist me with recommendations to a doctor of the criteria I was searching for. Thanks again Dr. Yan! :)”

Questioning me and my concerns. Treated me like I was incompetent. Not really friendly. Wouldn’t go back to this specific provider for my needs.
