Dr. Yao shows compassion on his patients. He explained very well to help his patient understand the causes, preventions and things related to his patients concerns. He is very kind and made his patient feels very good after leaving his office. He listens and never rush us during our visit. He answered our questions in a sense that we can easily comprehend. I would highly recommend Dr. Yao.
