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.

a family member came into his office today. The person behind the reception desk handed this person my bill my personal information my name, address, phone number date of birth all the treatments that I had done expecting this person to pay my bill. This is against all HIPAA policies I will be reporting this doctor, and whoever the unprofessional person is behind the counter

Prompt and Excellent Care
Although I was not an established patient with this practice, Dr. Yu and his staff were very accommodating and fit me into their busy schedule. I received excellent care and clear instructions for how to prevent the issue from re-occurring. I will highly recommend Dr. Yu to my family and friends!

Didn’t provide much explanation
Dr. Yu rushed his diagnosis and recommended exercises. I was not given any paperwork when leaving to give me a diagnosis or documented exercises for a very common condition. I was more confused when I left than before my appointment.

Excellent experience! Dr. Yu was patient and listened to all of my concerns. He addressed each one. He explained the process to me in detail and answered all of my questions. I never felt rushed. The custom orthotics are adjustable and that makes all the difference for me. I was able to book follow up appointments without difficulty. The office staff is pleasant and friendly. I've had orthotics in the past and these are so much better.
