Review by Mark ***** April 7, 2024

5/5
Dr. Yu was not only knowledgeable, she took time to explain her diagnosis and to let me soak it in. She definitely dealt not just with the condition but with the patient, unlike the previous Neurologist I'd dealt with. I highly recommend her to anyone needing to confer with a neurologist. The initial patient visit was for 60 minutes which is what someone being diagnosed with Parkinson's needs.
