I found her to be rude and condescending. She rolls her eyes at you when you tell how something has been treated before. She basically told me the care I had been receiving from my (now retired physician) is inadequate Hope never to see her again.

I saw Dr. Young this month when my usual was out, and it was horrible. I left the appointment crying. She made it very clear that she thought I was making up my symptoms and made me feel like my being there was a waste. She doesn't let you get a word in. If I had read her reviews online first, I would not have gone to her, as this seems to be a lot of people's experience with her. Will never go to this doctor again.

Her attitude she portrays that she is above and beyond you is less than professional. She rolls her eyes when questions are asked and she treats you like an idiot. Very unprofessional in my opinion.

When I first saw Dr Young I wasn't impressed but as I got used to her and she got used to me I started to appreciate her more and more. Maybe her and I just agree on a few more things than some. I found her followup to be way above average and she spent enough time answering my questions and listening to me. She's not for everyone, but I like her.

Dr. Young is YOUNG & INEXPERIENCED! She is NOT caring at ALL, and is about as intelligent as my dog! No, I take that back....my dog's pretty smart! Seriously, when she got out of school 3 mos. ago, I bet she graduated with a D- average, but guess what??!! She's still a DOCTOR!! Sadly, the only ones to pay for it are her patients. I'm surprised Spencer has kept her as long as they have!

Have gone to her for a few things and will not be returning. She refuses to listen to us pertaining to what we have done for certain health issues, were sent to a specailist to find we were already on the correct path. She also pushes her political ideas onto us. Anytime you disagree she gives the "you would do it my way if your a good parent" speech in an effort to give a guilt trip. Oh and did I mention she doesn't know what a birthmark looks like. Strongly DO NOT recommend this Doctor.
