Patient Reviews
Dec 13, 2023
Dr. Michael Yen is 100% awesome. I felt so confused and overwhelmed until Dr. Yen was on my case; once I met him, I felt like I could finally breathe and think, and that there was someone I could count on. even though it’s a busy office, I’ve never had to wait too long, nor have I ever been left hanging in any respect. Dr. Yen has a knack for breaking down diagnosis, treatment options, and – this is so important to me – the rationale/logic for next steps and how to think about options. What's most valuable (and, I think, unique) is that he’s given me tools to develop my own, informed philosophy about how to live, and live well, with my condition. I can honestly say after 5+ years of seeing Dr. Yen, I don’t Google stuff anymore because I don’t need to—I have a doctor I can go to any time (seriously almost any time of day) with anything and get the info I need, that I know I can trust.
