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.

A Fountain of Misinformation
I don’t even know where to begin, this was one of the most traumatic doctors appointments that I’ve ever had. She told a young, naive, distressed version of myself that it was impossible that I could have endometriosis because I was “too young (at 17, 7 years after my first period). I felt invalidated and was told that I quote “probably just have anxiety.” One year of pain later, I found a doctor through UPMC that actually listened to me. I had surgery and I did in fact have stage 2 endometriosis. Don’t call yourself an endometriosis expert if you’re not. 10/10 do not recommend. Rude. Condescending. Incorrect.

I’m very disappointed in Dr. Yesterday. I miscarried 4 years ago and she was wonderful with handling that. I saw her during my first pregnancy after the miscarriage and she didn’t even acknowledge it. I saw her again with my second pregnancy since the miscarriage and again she didn’t acknowledge it. It doesn’t bother me, but it seems off since all of the other providers of the office do, especially as I’m still in the first trimester. I had a few questions to ask her and she wasn’t helpful at all. It seemed like I was wasting her time. I will have to wait another 4 weeks to ask at my next appointment with another provider. I really don’t recommend her and I will request not to see her again. She comes off condescending and very rushed. I’m disappointed that my office keeps her employed as everyone else is wonderful!

I never write reviews but I had to after visiting with Dr Yester. I switched to this practice because my other doctor totally dismissed a concern I had and Dr Yester took her time and listened to my concerns and explained everything and offered to do additional testing. I felt totally comfortable with her and I would recommend her to anyone!
