Patient Satisfaction
Leave a review
How likely are you to recommend Dr. Yao?
Dr. Yao is a busy doctor, it is understandable that wait times can be high sometimes. Some cases make take a bit longer to deal with. It is going to happen with Dr. Yao. If it takes longer to give care, he will do it, and I prefer it this way. The majority of patients that see Dr. Yao are sick or dying. They deserve his attention for as long as it takes to be thorough in diagnosing these illnesses and prescribing treatments. If it takes a bit longer to get through the entire patient schedule, I understand. I give Dr. Yao a full 5-star rating because of his commitment to serving the community inside the office and outside. He takes times to mentor young men and women that are entering the profession. He volunteers his time to teach them about the medical field and guide them as they enter college. He shows them the difficulties of many treatments and introduces them to the political and ethical issues the medical field is faced with today. -5 Stars-
