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.

EMG
This was my first visit with Dr. Young and I was very impressed. She was the first neurologist that administered the EMG test without any pain. She answered all of my questions thoroughly. Very nice bed side manner.

Hard pass. Wasn't interested
After having multiple visits with a different neurologist, I was hoping a more experienced neurologist would be able to find a solution to my head pain. Immediately, Dr. Young dismissed my classification of 'head pain' vs 'headaches.' 'Anything from the neck up is a headache,' I was told. Of course, that's not true. If I stab you in the head with a knife, that's going to cause head pain, not a headache. And as such, you will treat it much differently than say a, headache. If you get hit in the head with a bat, there is immediate pain one feels. Hours later, days later, you'll probably have a headache. I mentioned I failed multiple TOS tests at home, thinking that could be an answer to the daily head pain (for 3 years), but Dr. Young ignored my suggestion. Instead, she pushed me off to a 'headache' specialist a good 90 minutes away. No doubt, probably one of her friends. I've decided to seek answers elsewhere.

I have been a migraine patient of Dr. Young's for approximately 10 years. At one point I left her practice to go to a well known head pain clinic. After over a year there with no relief, I returned to Dr. Young. Even though I have never been free of migraines, she keeps trying new meds to reduce them and never makes me feel like I'm a hypochondriac. I have never found her or any of her staff to be anything but friendly and helpful.

1. The office staff (front desk) are SO terribly rude. They act like everything is an inconvenience, take forever to answer the phones, and are very, very uncoordinated. 2. The wait times are well over an hour. You might as well just show up an hour late to your appointment and you'll still be waiting. 3. Once you --finally-- see Dr. Young, she will be on her computer the ENTIRE time. Although she is nice, she does NOT have good bedside manner. 4. I barely tell her anything anymore because she dismisses all of it. She'll give me a prescription and send me off, instead of trying to find the REASON behind my problems. She doesn't ever prescribe things like therapy or anything holistic (I know, most doctors don't). 5. The appointments are so rushed that, even if I DID TRY to tell her my issues, she would talk so fast and and talk "FOR ME" that it's unbelievable. Overall, I would not recommend her or her office.

After three visits with Dr. Esther Young I have decided not to return and would not recommend her to anyone seeking care. Dr. Young rushes through your appointment and without asking if you have further concerns or questions rudely dumps you off at the check out desk. She has done this to me on all three visits. In addition, she failed to contact me directly with important medication changes, instead had an office clerk try to tell me what to do. Dr. Young gave me the impression she could care less about me as a patient. The office staff are very unprofessional, unhelpful and rude. It is obvious they need further training in customer service as well as the medical field.

I sought help for chronic migraines that I've had since age 11. Dr. Young continued to throw nothing but medication at it, and medication that didn't work at that. Recently she prescribed a new med; I'm so glad I always research meds before I take them, because this medicine was NOT breastfeeding and pregnancy safe (imitrex) after she assured me it was safe to take. Finding a new doctor.

long wait times, visits are rushed and uncoordinated, she tells me to return in two weeks but there is no availability in two weeks - I am still waiting for test results from two months ago.

I was a patient for almost 8 years and when she was first starting out it seemed like she wanted to help, but that quickly dissolved into paying me the minimum amount of attention. About 6 months ago I had my first seizure in ten years and she didn't care to find out why, do an EEG or even adjust my medicine. She saw me for about 5 minutes, I paid a $40 copay and that was it. Then 3 months later I had another seizure. She again did the same thing. When I arrived at her office she hadn't

Dr. Young has a great bedside manner. She is thoughtful and takes her time with you. The staff is also noticeably very pleasant. One of her MS's jumped through hoops for a few weeks prior to my appointment to help obtain necessary forms for treatment. I highly recommend Dr. Young and her office.

Waited 7 weeks for a follow up appointment with Dr.Young. I drove 25 miles for my visit, and due to construction in front of her practice backed up 2 miles, I was ten minutes late. Dr. Young's strict policy is to mark her patients as no shows after 10 minutes. I was told I could wait 2 hours in the waiting room while she saw other patients. So disappointing that as patients we have no rights when it comes to waiting on the doctors for hours but don't be late -they will shove you out the door
