RUN AND NEVER LOOK BACK. HE IS THE WORST.

My husband's true issues were never dealt with by Dr. Yu. Dr. Yu's "fix all" was to do surgery to install a supra pubic catheter. Those have to be changed every month. That was done by the nurse. The doctor did not see my husband for 10 months when he insisted on seeing the doctor. My husband told the doctor (once his staff allowed him to see Dr. Yu) and his nurse that his pain was really bad and that he felt like something was growing in his body. Dr. Yu kept saying it was his prostate and that he would have to live with the pain. My husband's PCP referred him to another urologist. By then signs of cancer had begun to grow on the outside so it was visible. The new urologist did biopsies and confirmed it was cancer. My husband was then referred to OSU Urology Dept. The cancer had grown in his pelvic area that caused my husband to have to have a very radical 8 hour surgery. My husband is still looking at another surgery to remove lymph nodes due to the pathology report findings. And… there is a possibility of chemo and or radiation treatments. If Dr. Yu had cared enough to have a CT scan and MRI done on my husband, that may have showed a severe problem to warrant a PET scan. That test is "expensive" so the the physician has to talk to the insurance physician explaining why my husband needed a PET scan. If this had been taken care of last year then he may still have some of the organs that had to be removed. I am VERY unhappy with this guy. This did not have to turn out the way it did. DO NOT GO TO DR. YU. Oh he hands out Cipro like candy instead of seeing his patients.

This man listened when no other doctor would. Thank you doctor.

My 82-year-old father has been a patient at Dr. Yu's practice for years, mostly seeing Yu's partner until the partner retired. We have interacted with Dr. Yu in the hospital and in the office. We have been unhappy for some time with - the NON-return of phone calls (not slow return...actually not returning calls) - length of time (weeks) to get test results, even though the doctor has the results - rudeness of some of the staff - abruptness of staff and Dr. Yu Today's incident means we will find a new doctor: This morning my father's indwelling foley catheter became blocked. A blocked catheter quickly becomes uncomfortable and then painful. This has happened multiple times before. The solution is simple: remove the catheter and put a new one in. Today, the timing of the blockage was such that my father could simply go to Dr. Yu's office to have the catheter changed. The office opens at 8:30 am. When my father arrived at 8:31 and explained his need for a catheter… change, he was told that they were too busy to see him. He was FORCED to go to the ER. The nurse/receptionist actually told him to go to the ER. So, despite being in some physical distress, my father left Dr. Yu's office, drove himself to the ER, parked, walked in, got triaged, went to a room, changed into a gown, saw a nurse, saw the doctor, saw another nurse to finally change the catheter, worked with registration, received a prescription for antibiotics, signed papers, and was released. Unbelievable. And unacceptable.

This "doctor" was awful. He was obnoxious, belittling, arrogant, and also messed up a procedure and almost destroyed my right kidney. He was horrible. I would have sued but lacked the initial retainer fee so I had to settle for filing a medical board complaint.

DR Yu is great, but his support systems need improvement. Phone calls are not returned; getting questions answered require multiple phone calls.

Made me feel like just a number.

Worst experience of my life left me bedridden for the rest of my life. Not exactly what I was going for. Refused to give the treatment I wanted, chose to use me for a botched approach he had little if any experience with then refused to help when it was a complete failure

Dr. Yu is an honest straight forward doctor. Whether I like to hear it or not, he tells me if I have stones and gives me options on how to treat them. I once asked what they looked like and he took time to take me into the hallway and show me the x-ray. After a surgery, I had a seizure and as a precautionary measure he kept me in the hospital overnight. I would recommend Dr. Yu to anyone who has kidney stones.

After not even 5 minutes of speaking with me, Dr. Yu stated i needed surgery right away as he felt i had Interstitial cystitis. A week later i have surgery and am told i have a sever case. After a week of surgery and no instructions on follow up procedures, i schedule a check up. During my appointment, he makes me feel like there is no reason for me to have come in and says he will write me a script for percocet, and that is all he can do. I grow concerned that taking percocet as a method of treatment could have serious side effects and call his office with concerns. Dr. Yu tells me as long as i am not taking more than 5 a day i am good. Then i began to have other serious side effects from the percocet and call back to his office, and then am told by his staff he should not be giving me that, and two days later i get a note from his office releasing me as a patient. Then i receive a call from their director apologizing for his behaviors and offers for me to be seen by another… doctor. MY suggestion is find a whole new practice all together! Horrible staff, and not very educated doctors in my opinion.
