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. Yamamoto is a fantastic provider. Dr. Yamamoto is knowledgeable, kind, professional, thorough, empathetic, and honest. I really appreciate that I have her full attention during appointments - she always takes the time to explain everything with care and compassion, which is very helpful in building trust. She was very clear about the process, answered all of my questions, and provided all the information I needed. Her skills as a surgeon are great - she really goes above and beyond.

I saw Dr. Yamamoto four years ago for a melanoma, which she handled extremely well. And then I've been coming back for a relook for four years now. And there is no reappearance of the melanoma. She did a great job getting it out. And she's been great ever since. So, thank you very much.

The staff was really, really helpful on the day of the appointment. However, getting the appointment and the trouble with the authorization was really hard. That's all I needed to say. Thank you.
