I really like Dr. Yu, she spends all the time I need with me to discuss ongoing issues with my health. I believe she really does care about my health and well-being. She helped me quit smoking for which I and my husband will be eternally grateful. She seems to know what she is doing. I don't have a problem understanding her.
