It was my first meeting with Dr. Robin Yang but the consultation went well. My companion and I left feeling informed, with a good understanding of what to expect leading up to the major surgery and what the procedure may look like based on a diagnosis.

I don't have much to say. He's different from a family doctor in terms of warmth.

Knowledgeable, skillful, and have to understand his unique personality. He Is not not Interested, he just has a calm personality, patient shouldn't feel uncomfortable, patient need to communicate and ask questions and develop a relationship with a surgeon they trusted to have surgery wtih.

Dr. Yang is an incredibly talented and knowledgeable surgeon. We travel all of the way from New York state due to his care, understanding, knowledge, skill and talent. He listens to my concerns and works with me to achieve the best possible outcomes. I am beyond pleased with the surgeries he has performed on me.
