Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Exceptional Care and Expertise in Hip Replacement
If you are looking for a hip replacement surgeon, go with Dr. Yin. Dr. Bob Yin recently performed two successful hip replacement surgeries for my mom, and his care has been exceptional. From our first visit, he patiently addressed all her concerns and explained everything clearly, making her feel at ease, especially since he speaks Mandarin. The surgeries at St. Jude Hospital were well-organized, and it was comforting to have the option for a family member to stay overnight. Dr. Yin's precise instructions were easy to follow, crucial for my mom's recovery at 80 years old. His Chino Hills office is also convenient. The team is responsive, and the waiting times are reasonable, ensuring a supportive experience throughout. Dr. Yin's expertise and compassionate care are unmatched, and we highly recommend him.Thank you, Dr. Yin, for renewing my mom's vitality.

New Hip for my Mom
Dr. Bob Yin is my Mom's Orthopedic surgeon for a left hip replacement. From our 1st visit, initial consult 2/2021, Dr. Yin was very patient and listened to my Mom's fears and concerns. He explained every detail as well as dispelled mysteries. My Mom was very comfortable communicating with him because he also spoke Mandarin. It has been a year since her surgery (5/2021) and she just had her 1 year follow up - clean, well-healed new hip. During the course leading up to the surgery, post surgery, his office team used multiple ways to check in on my Mom's pain and healing progress. Emails to the office were always promptly answered. My Mom was as staunch "no surgery" advocate. Refused to have surgery for years and met with multiple Specialist, therapists, and surgeon for her pain. Finally, after years of pain, she meets Dr. Yin and now can't stop talking about him. She recommends him to all her friends who is looking for an orthopedic surgeon.

Just had my one year follow up visit after a direct anterior left hip replacement. Dr. Yin performed the surgery one year ago and I feel better than ever. Back to tennis 4 days/week with no pain and full mobility in my hip and thank Dr. Yin for eliminating my pain with no compromise to my active life style. Would highly recommend him!!

I have been to Dr. Yin a couple of times because of old injured knees. Dr. Yin was very thorough in his study of the Xrays and MRI's on my knees. Although he is a renowned surgeon he was honest with me and said a "clean out" would be the most I would need right now. We discussed the options for me and I chose the knee injection at this time which completely took away the excruciating pain I had been living with. Even though this may be a temporary fix, I feel that Dr. Yin's honesty and expertise has completely won my trust of him. When it becomes necessary for me to have the surgery he will definitely be my surgeon. I would highly recommend Dr. Yin to anybody looking for an honest opinion and a top notch orthopedic.

Dr. Yin helped me with Hardware removal in my elbow. He took the time to review my case and when he entered the exam room he was already familiar with my history. He was very professional, knowledgeable and timely. His staff was also polite and helpful as well. I highly recommend Dr. Yin to give sound medical care.

Dr Yin did an exceptional job in replacing my left knee,he explained the procedure and what to expect and what I must do to have a good recovery. It has been 6 months now and I am very happy with the result. I highly recommend buying an ice machine. It really helped with the swelling along with following the exercise routine he gave me. I am now walking pain free like I I used to. I would give him 10 stars if I could.

Dr Bob Yin Has just performed full knee replacement on both of my knees simultaneously. He was extremely professional, thorough, and accommodating through all the intervals pre, during and post operation. I experienced no pain besides the swelling when I left the hospital and I was walking without support 3 days after the operation. I cannot thank him enough and I fully recommend him because of his top qualification in his field
