Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr Yang provided excellent care to my sister.

Dr. Yang has shown me empathy, compassion and kindness each time I have met with him, as well as extremely quick responses through the messaging system! I have already recommended him to people I know!

Again, Dr. Yang is wonderful! He is trying very hard to help me with my pain and coming up with ideas that we both agree with. I absolutely love him!

Dr. Yang called me the “Shopping Cart Guy”.
Dr. Yang called me the “Shopping Chart Guy” making fun of my spinal deformity causing my sloped over posture. I used to be an athlete and at 6’7” I stood taller than most. I wish I could stand up straight again. I can’t look up at the stars at night. Do you think I want to be the “Shopping Cart Guy”? I don’t think it’s necessary for a surgeon to have good bedside manner because in the end I just want them to be a skilled surgeon but in this case I don’t feel comfortable recommending anyone else see Dr. Yang given his lack of empathy and compassion.

It is far too long to explain and to type with my hand issues. I am treated like a thick schoolgirl; mind I’m 62 yo. I was running races before he was ever born so Aaron I actually do understand everything you say. God if you could have been a fly on the wall when he kept asking me ad nauseum “do you understand me?” Nearly every time I come into the clinic for follow up appointments, he bungles up something. At this last visit, he sent 3 of my prescriptions to be picked up in Panama City Beach, FL; I’ve lived in Nashville since 1983. This means I had to miss this evening’s dose of pregabalin as well as tomorrow. There is something wrong with him. He is denigrating and smug.

I am a retired SF Solider with severe lower back pain. Dr Yang has extraordinary bed side manners. Dr. Yang understood my situation and made a few recommendations based on what I had explained. After years of dealing with many in the medical profession, I am on my way to being able to do things I was not for the last few years. Remarkable!!

He is a doctor that knows what he is doing. He also truly cares about his patients. He took great care of my grandma when she had a fracture in her back. I would recommend him to anyone with back problems.

Doesn’t listen well. Not helpful and a waste of time. He has an idea in his head and has a hard time getting past that to hear the patient. One too many “misunderstandings”

Dr. Yang was very well spoken with a great "bedside manner". He explained everything very clearly in words that the average person understands. His staff (including Dr. Shannon) were all very nice. I was taken back for my appointment about 5 minutes after arriving, seen by Dr. Shannon (very nice, and smart lady) quickly after that, followed by both Dr. Shannon and Dr. Yang. Great overall experience.
