-
In and out with zero explanations of treatment . Repeatedly askedMe the same thing over and over again.Zero empathy
-
Excellent doctor. Very knowledgeable. Very difficult to message her after visit.
-
I could have used more details re drug side effects
-
Had medical records but only looked at other neurological records, not others that were potentially related to the neurological symptoms.
-
Felt the clinician was dismissive. She kept commenting how a previous MRI was clear so I'm fine. Dismissed how my face was feeling and kept telling me I'm fine.
-
She tried to listen but never asked why I was there, and when I tried to tell her, she just got defensive and wouldn't even look or listen at what I was asking her to look at as a recommended treatment, she just refused. She also pushed a drug on me without talking about all the side effects, and seemed to push me out. I tried to advocate for myself over and over until she finally shut me down completely.
-
Very thorough, professional visit.
-
I should have been given more information about the prescription.
-
She did not ask about any symptoms other than my visually obvious tremor. She did not give me the chance to talk about any symptoms. The moment she saw a history of anxiety in my chart she lost all interest and started saying that everything was just anxiety, even after I told her that I had started with a psychiatrist who told me that he would not be able to help me because it wasn't psychological. She did not offer any treatment options or suggestions. She was extremely dismissive and short.
-
Dr Yu was very helpful, including advice about a prescription (that later paid off!)
-
I still need to transfer records from Kaiser Permanente and Seattle Functional Medecine.
-
Dr. Yu spoke and asked questions very quickly. I had a bit of trouble thinking about and giving my answer to what she asked before she was on to the next question.
-
Excellent care. Was missing some of my medical records.
-
Excellent doctor
-
Extremely thorough and engaged
-
Extremely impressed by the time Dr Yu took to understand my migraine history. She has prepared for the visit and even came with notes from reading my chart.
-
Excellent treatment by Doctor
-
Dr. Yu provides a clear path forward in my health quest. Potential concerns, tests or specialists needed etc.
-
Dr told me she couldn't help as said my condition was caused by anxiety. No recgnition of my struggles or suggestion of what to do.Stated in her clinical note that I was referred for balance issues and tho I have them these are not an issue for me nor reason for referral. Has not yet contacted me about abnormal lab results and how those could relate to my condition.

Very helpful, easy
