I was really happy with my visit also Page was doing her residency and came in and talked and examined me first. She was very thorough and took her time with me. Then dr Yelverton came in and checked my throat and voice box and gave me something for acid reflux. And will follow up later

Visit went well. I was referred for a hearing test for which I didn’t think I needed. He was knowledgeable about my issue and ordered what I thought was a proper procedure (follow up) so that a proper diagnosis could be determined.

Dr. Yelverton is one of the nicest doctors I’ve ever had. He’s so professional and wants to help you have a better quality of life. He just completed my sinus surgery and I can already tell a huge difference. I wish more Doctors had his bedside manner and professionalism. They could learn a thing or two from that. Thanks for all you do Dr. Yelverton.

Best medical services from beginning to end I’ve had in a long time! Staff are friendly, efficient and follow up with messages timely. They worked with my schedule and even had to move my procedure date and follow up appt. All was done effortlessly and was stress/free on my part. Dr. Yelverton takes the time to explain and ensure his patients understand all. 5 stars out of 5… outstanding.
