He prayed with us, explained everything in details, showed a lot of compassion and concern for patient as well as family. He is just genuine, lights up the room when he comes in. Love him.

Dr. Yielding & his staff always listen & follow up on my medical related complaints. His staff is excellent & always go out of their way to be helpful. They are skilled & caring. In a practice such as oncology the caring is most important.

This so called physician has prescribed me on medications that I never should have been put on, and they have destroyed my body. He will win you over by acting caring and knowledgeable, but don't be fooled like I was fooled. I wish I had never gone to him, as it is costing me my life. Once he gets you to a certain stage, he then tries to say he has done all that can be done and you should just accept the fact that you have only days to live. I'm still alive and it's been months. He hasn't even called or tried to follow up since he sent me home to die. FAKE!

I highly recommend him. My father and I both use him and both love him. He's very personable and is genuine. He really does love to help people and their families and is just a very comforting individual.

Dr. Yeilding is one of the most caring doctors I have ever seen. He comes in smiling and makes me smile no matter how I felt before seeing him. He makes sure I understand my cancer and treatment. His staff is truly friendly and helpful.
