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 provider
My previous ENT only wanted to do surgery when my chronic sinusitis kept coming back. When he recommended a 3rd surgery I switched to Dr. Yost. Dr. Yost sat down with me and told me all the options available to treat my condition. He listened to my concerns, answered my questions, and we were able to come up with a plan of treatment that did not include another surgery. I'm very happy with him and his staff.

Dr. Yost cares about his patients.
Dr. Yost spent a good amount of time evaluating my condition and listening to me. He explains in terms I understand. What impresses me of Dr. Yost is that he will not try to suggest any surgery if he does not think surgery will help. He believes in starting first with conventional treatment methods. I was impressed by the thorough screening of my condition by Dr Yost and his staff. I felt that I was given adequate time for examination and to have questions answered. My patient visit and follow-up notes were available on MyChart soon after my visit concluded. By all means I recommend Dr. Yost!

Overall the care is okay. However, its extremely frustrating when you leave a message and it gets completely twisted and then when the nurse calls back the doctor brushes you off, not because the question you originally asked ever even made it to the doctors ears but because the front office staff and nurse screwed up! The doctor thought I wanted antibiotics when all I really wanted to know is if he could give me a prescription antihistamine because after my allergy shots I had tightness in my chest, itchy watery eyes and major congestion. It’s overall just irritating! I get that we all make mistakes but even when I pointed that out to the nurse she refused to ask the doctor my original question.

Infant tubes
Dr. Yost saw my 13 month old after 8 ear infections, got her in right away for tubes. Her in office appointment went great, he explained the surgery and showed me the tube that they place. Very informative. Took time to make baby comfortable with him and his resident student was also very good with my daughter. Surgery day he came in and explained it all again, asked if I had questions. It was super quick and he came out and updated me as soon as they were done. Very impressed by Dr. Yost and his staff and both ENT office and Rocky Mountain surgery center. Thanks Dr. Yost and staff for an easy stress free first surgery.

Staff is courteous, and appointments are generally on time, i.e., within a very few minutes of scheduled time. I have used Dr. Yost for allergy testing as well as ENT problems. I would recommend him anytime.
