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.

My first visit with him was today. He had all my medical records with him and made sure he was familiar with them. He made sure I understood everything. Made sure I knew he was available.

Dr Yirinec Is one of the most compassionate and caring and “ go out of his way” Doctors that I have met in my life. My wife has been dealing with stage four cancer for more than four years and it has been very difficult for her and for our family. We were referred to Dr. Yirinec and we have had nothing but 100% satisfaction. In a field where many things don’t go as well as we would hope they would, he has been compassionate and caring and attentive and so incredibly wonderful I can’t really find many more words to describe him without being redundant. I would recommend him and I wouldn’t feel and have felt comfortable with his decisions and his plans for caring for my wife. I find it hard to believe that anyone would give him anything less than five stars. I can only imagine that I review last stand five stars must have come from and disgruntled individual or I have been in some other kind of strange faux pas. We would like to thank him for all that he has done. 10 stars

Dr. Yirinec treated my wife during her illness for 3 years. He did everything he could to provide the best of care. He listened our concerns and spent excessive time during each appointment. Concerns or questions between visits were communicated by phone to his nurse, Barbie, or via e-mail. A response was promptly returned by a phone call or by a written response. He and his staff were caring and very responsive.

I have been his patient for eleven years. He explains everything down to the smallest detail. When I had a recurrence of my cancer there wasn't any hesitation on whom I wanted for my doctor. He's a very caring individual. I highly recommend him.
