Patient Reviews
Mar 02, 2021
I have been using Dr. Yax for more than 5 years at this point. I have no complaints about his work or his professionalism. I do not understand how anyone can complain about him. He has always listened to me, and remembers conversations from one year to the next. He is hands down the best Dr. I have had and I am 50 years old.
