Dr. Yeung was as advertised. Excellent.
Dr. Yeung was very impressive and was an excellent communicator. He helped my wife and I undersant where surgical interventions might fit in to my treatment. My wife and I left knowing that my chemotherapy was the right treatment for me at this time and that he would work with us in the future to examine whether surgery might be appropriate at that time.
Dr. Yeung was clear & broke down what is quite complicated to easy to understand. We went through all options and I was relieved when he spoke to me about starting treatment as it has been a source of anxiety for me. Waiting. He gave me hope - proactive and uplifting in his attitude.
Very informative & professional. Pleasant customer interaction

Doctor provided great information and analogies that helped describe my condition
Highly skilled and intelligent.
I'm not sure if this is the place to comment on Dr. Yeoung, but he is a great doctor. Very detailed and educational without being overly so. He taught us a lot about the fight we are in and how to navigate the process efficiently. He defined a future decision tree for us and gave us a look at and explanation of the images that determine our diagnosis. He is a tremendous asset for patients.
Very good explanation from the doctor about my problem, as well as the attention of the PA and the treatment of the PN.
Dr Yeung explains issues well, listens well and does a great job of explaining. Excellent care!
*Dr. Yeung answered our questions thoroughly and showed us on the scans where he would be working. He gave us a "worst case" scenario (which turned out to not be the case.) But it was useful to hear what the challenges might be and how they would deal with.
Very good Zoom meeting. Provider was extremely helpful.
I appreciate that Dr. Yeung does not make you feel rushed, and he answers your questions.
Dr. YOUNG was exceptionally excellent in explaining [...]
