“Dr. Yabukov is amazing, one of the best doctor's I've seen in terms of knowledge and bedside manner. I had some unexpected GI issues and Dr. Yabukov listened with patience and came up with a comprehensive diagnosis and treatment plan. Along the way, he made sure to explain each procedure and test result to me in layman's terms to make sure what was otherwise a daunting health experience was made less so. I really appreciate his expertise through this time, and highly recommend him. ”
