My Visit with Dr. Peter Yotseff would receive over 5 stars due to his professionalism and how promptly I was able to see him per my appointment time.

Know and like the Doctor. Overcharged for my copayment and when I said it was wrong I was told that it was verified on 12/6. Later I was told by my Insurance that I was right but now I have to talk to the billing dept. I could only leave a voice mail.
A bit disappointed and annoyed that I don't have an answer still to why my stomach still hurts 2 weeks after getting a colonoscopy and endoscopy. Emergency room says nothing and Doctor is not sure why I'm in pain.
Informative
the date for the procedure is too far into the future...i guess that means he is busy with other patients which is a good thing, but i am selfish and want to be helped ASAP.
Dr Yotseff addressed all my questions and concerns. He is very knowledgeable and presents information very clearly. His passion for helping people clearly shows. Office staff very friendly and one of the few dr offices that feels more like a hotel lobby so patients feel more at ease!

Not real impressed.
Office staff was very nice and helpful. Dr was very understanding and kind. the experience was very pleasant and professional.
Dr. Yotseff is as good as they get... Very nice, caring, extremely attentive and ready to get whatever ailment you have resolved. The wait time in the office is standard per ANY doctor's office. Highly recommend to any and all please!
Dr. Yotseff was very patient and answered all my questions. The office was clean, organized, and very professional. The office staff was kind and courteous.
Staff was disorganized. After waiting over an hour, I felt rushed by the doctor. This is not the group of people to whom I want to entrust my healthcare. The office seemed to be adequately staffed, but disorganized, tense as if everyone could hardly wait to leave.
Verified patient
He has a bit of sarcasm when explaining things but overall good. I love how he likes doing things the proper way and not just prescribing something to you.
The extended wait was extremely disappointing, HOWEVER, this exceptional professional was well worth that wait! BRAVO DR. YOTSEFF! I understand that there are always extenuating circumstances when it comes to wait times, I would just recommend that you don't take the very last appointment of the day as I did; arrival: 3:15 pm; departure 5:45 pm :-(. As this was a pre-procedure consult appointment, I remain confident that I will not be faced a repeat on the wait time for my actual procedure in late May. I look forward to submitting another glowing post-procudure feedback post for the good doctor........
