She is a very caring knowledgeable doctor. She is kind and caring to my kids when they see her. She is thorough, informative, and always willing to see my kids anytime I call. Nurse Tanya is just as amazing as Dr. young is, my kids and I love her too. The ONLY downside to this office is the front staff, they are rude an unprofessional, and don't always forward your issues to the doctor.

Intolerable staff, pediatrician to my 3 kids since birth, Unbelievable encounter with recent staff setting up an appointment and their ridiculous and naive information. Outraged on how staff neglects to be courteous or even informing Dr. to return call from parents request.

I was introduced to Dr. young by our old peditrician. She is very caring and assures my kids (ages 11 & 1) that she cares about them she tells them that she loves them and asks for a hug when they leave. I never feel rushed when talking with her. She is very accurate and straight forward. I would reccommend and have reccommened friends and family to her. Best ped doctor in santa maria by far!!! Thanks Dr Young, for being you! I competely trust you with my kids!
