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.

Great Experience
Dr. Yost did an emergency L2-L3 Laminectomy on my spine at St. Vincent's hospital and helped relieve my back pain immediately. Working in partnership with the Oncology team, she helped the group determine that I had Ewing's Sarcoma Cancer.

Dr. Yost has done 2 surgeries o me, 5 years apart. I was so pleased with my first surgery that was an emergency. I chose her when I had an MRI and she found the problem right away and now 5 weeks post-op I am once again very pleased with the outcome.

TWENTY MINUTES before surgery on my husband's spine, and as his IV was going in, Dr Yost called him to reschedule. On the way out of the hospital, other doctors and nurses on staff revealed that last minute cancellations were not at all unusual for her. Absolutely not impressed with this surgeon.

Calm, coherent, understandable explanation of condition and treatment. We appreciated the amount of time she was willing to spend with us and very much helped us feel at ease with a rough decision.
