Scott Yarmark, DO

If I was able to leave negative stars I would. The worst experience with any physician (and his little buddy Dr. Rossi) that you could imagine.

My Mother was a patient of his for over 12 years. I took her to see him at least two times a year. Her health started to decline so I was in his office with her more over the years but especially her last year with him. I explained to him how my Mom's respiratory was suffering and had a cough that wouldn't quit. He stated he thinks she has bronchitis and would just prescribe more medication and steroids. However, nothing was helping! My Mom's last visit with him I stated she was coughing up blood! He asked me if it was cherry red or dark red. I told him cherry. He then prescribed different medications. I asked "that is it"?! He said he would do an x-ray of her chest. He didn't call us to tell us the results therefore we called him and he stated there was a small black spot but NOT to worry about it! Well, let me tell you I did worry about it! I took my Mom to the emergency room. At the hospital they discovered she had STAGE 3 Lung Cancer! Thank God I took her when I did! I would of… lost her. She suffered a lot especially her last year under his care. She is now under a New doctor's care she is doing Much better.

Excellent doctor with a great sense of humor

This guy is horrible. Has given wrong diagnoses and opinions to me or my husband on more than 80% of our visits. Jokes with staff inappropriately in front of patients. Husband called in sick to get an appointment for a terrible upper respiratory infection or bronchitis (best guess considering how sick he is and how much he is coughing) and Yarmark won't see him for 3 days! Really? Even though he was told he has been getting worse everyday for the past 3-4 days. If that is the soonest a doctor can see a patient during an illness he should probably re-evaluate how many patients he has or get some help! He doesn't seem to care at all and will make snide remarks while examining you. Prepare to wait over an hour to be seen once actually in the office, at times it has been more than 3 hours. The only positive in the entire office is his staff. We both avoid going to the doctor when we probably should because its just that terrible of an experience at Yarmarks, we dread even calling.… Currently looking for a new doctor.
