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. Yam is a thoughtful, smart, and informed. She hasn't hesitated to help me get to specialists or order care as needed, and she really listens to me and my concerns. She's young and extremely engaged; I like that she talks through her thought processes as well as any in-office procedures thoroughly. I'm so happy I found Dr. Yam!

Did not inform the ER doctors of my lab results - thus they denied my admission based on "low suspicion of infection" - I was not informed of them either - 5 weeks later - 7 different visits to Swedish - after the positive infection result (not noted by anyone or diagnosed) I developed Sepsis and lost 2 toes to amputation - and now am severely traumatized. She has a great personality - yes - but that is not really as important as protecting a patient's life.

She is so detail-oriented, very open and honest, and was genuinely caring. I have some anxiety/depression + some related IBS issues that have been there for a few years, and she was always so caring and considered/showed me all of my options and her recommendations regarding my issue, and explained everything to me so I could make the best decision for me. She's probably my favorite doctor out of the doctors I've had.

Careless and callous - would rather watch you drown then help pull you out of trouble.

Could be better at follow-up but about 10,000 times better than anyone else at Swedish Cherry Hill
