Since the birth of our now 9 year old, we’ve been pleased with the services she’s provided. Our second child, two years younger from our oldest, has been under her care as well. I’ve always noticed their pediatrician to be full of insight and provides wonderful advise. Many times, I’ve appreciated her humor and honesty. The girls are seen on yearly-checkups and on rare occasions, for when we’ve decided that seeing their pediatrician was necessary. Trurth be told, we’re the type to “wait and see” because the girls hardly ever get sick. Thus far, we’re very pleased with her care and our girls always look forward to their checkups.

In Dr. Young's own words, quote, "I'm a mean doctor. " Her statement couldn't be more accurate. In my opinion, Dr. Young doesn't care about your well being. She does, however, care to tell you exactly what you are doing wrong and make you feel like a failure as a parent. She is extremely condescending and rude. I will never recommend her to ANYONE.

Valerie Young reminds me of the good ol days when docs actually had time to spend with their patients. She takes the time to truly listen to my kids to get to the root of the issue. She also has a great way of speaking the children so they understand AND listen to her advice. A++ Love this doc!!

She has been our girls' pediatrician since our firstborn to our second child. I am highly satisfied with her manners, even the way she addresses concerns. We see her once a year for a checkup, and once during allergy season. The nurses from her staff are wonderful. Our kids love getting their shots with no problem!
