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 Yood is a great doctor and surgeon. He has a great bedside manner and fully explains all of your options to come up with an informed plan that you're comfortable with.

My husband had surgery last year and the surgery was a complete flop. The wound was infected for a year and it wasn’t until we found our current surgeon that things were resolved. As a surgeon, Yood knows nothing about wound care and was super unhelpful about dealing with the chronic infection even when the wound split open. I wish we had gone to a better surgeon earlier at a better hospital in Boston. If you have a pilonidal cyst issue, consider going to a better hospital. Yood wouldn’t even give us a wound care nurse when the wound was badly infected, so go elsewhere. He even suggested to my husband that he should use Nair hair removal cream around the open wound.

My only complaint was that Dr. Yood has surgeries on Monday's and maybe some Thursdays. Other than that, I had a good experience during my laparoscopy procedure for a hernia repair. He is experienced and confident. I would definitely recommend him if you are looking for a doctor to perform this procedure.

Dan in ASHLAND – Jan 23, 2019

Go anywhere else, the Staff is welcoming and professional but Dr.Steven Yood only cares about his time. I went in with an extremely painful issue but his rush to save time was far more important. While I understand he may have many patients a day, he is the only doctor I am seeing so some care would go a long way. After moving one time (in pain) I was scolded to go elsewhere if I can't sit still. After the shock of hearing this from a medical doctor that's exactly what I did got up and left.
