I have been going to Dr Younker for over a year now and I am so glad she was recommended to me. She is a warm and friendly doctor who takes her time to talk to explain things to you. She really cares about her patients and listens to what you say. How many times do you get a hug from your doctor? Hugs can be very helpful. Her staff is outstanding also, very helpful.

Slow staff with long wait times. No education provided and just refers out for everything. I will not be returning.

Dr. Younker is a wonderful provider and very knowledgeable. I had the opportunity to work with her through her residency program and was fortunate enough when she went into practice, to become a new patient of hers. She listens intently, with a genuine concern for your health and truly cares about your treatment. She is warm and friendly with a bedside manner that creates a relaxed environment where you feel comfortable to ask questions.

I took my mom for the first time to Dr. Younker and we honestly loved her! She spent so much time with us in answering every single one of our questions, did an excellent exam of mom, took her time in explaining everything and went over everything so thoroughly. She is so down to earth and just so very easy to talk to. The best bed side manner I have every encountered! Thank you Dr. Younker!

Dr. Joanna Younkers is heaven sent. She as well as her staff are courteous and caring. I have seen a number of doctors in this area and she is by far the best. She takes time to listen and answer any questions you may have. Also if you have any questions or need anything after you have seen her, Dr. Younkers and her staff are prompt at meeting those needs as well.
