I have been a patient for 8yrs. He is an excellent doctor. He listens to you and that is important. He also is friendly and easy to talk to. I give him 5 stars.

I left after waiting 50 minutes. Doctor was in and out of rooms all around me but never came in. Staff never asked me why I was there (I was there for throat problems). I finally went to the desk and told them I couldn’t wait any more. Girl said she thought I was there for a hearing test. Why would she think that when no one asked? Weirdest experience. Won’t be back.

Dr. Howard Yerman, MD is the Best! very kind, efficient and thorough. The Lakes Surgery Center he operates out of is the Best too! I love this Dr.! I recommend him to all for sinus issues! Had an appointment yesterday, Dr. Yerman & his staff were friendly, efficient and answered all my questions.

Charges are outrageous for the outdated equipment he's using to diagnose. Supper dirty and outdated office.

One thing is for certain. This wealthy doctor leaves 10% tips to people that bend over backwards for him. I wouldnt recommend this doctor to my worst enemy. Would love to see him live off of 10% gratuity. Lame with a capital L.

Our family has seen Dr. Yerman on multiple visits, and my rating is based on the culmination of experiences we've had. I noted a review elsewhere from 2007 that described Dr. Yerman as utterly unwilling to admit to and apologize for a mistake that caused his patient great harm. I mention this only because this is *exactly* what happened to us in 2012. We won't ever be back, nor would we ever recommend him or the surgery center he co-owns, Lakes Surgical Center on Haggerty Road in West Bloomfield, MI.

Great Doc. Not interested in trying to push you out the door. Seems to care and takes his time in listening! How refreshing - a doc that will listen to your problem.I do have to agree with the equipment and set up being out of 1950's. Jeez Doc.. spend some money and upgrade.

Extremely outdated and rusty tools. Smells like a nursing home. Seat and tools over 80 years old. Didn't even take vitals.

Dr Yerman took out my son's tonsils. He, his staff, and the staff at Huron Valley Hospital exceeded my expectations. They are all extremely knowledgable, kind, and caring. My son couldn't have been better cared for. I highly recommend Dr. Yerman.
