Dr Yarbough took the time to listen to what I said, he explained things well, and is very personable. His team went over everything before the surgery and called to check up a few days later. They were very helpful while I was coming out of anesthesia, as well as helping with after care medicines.10 out of 10 for the support staff and Dr Yarbough.

L met with Dr. Yarbrough about my severe knee pain, he took his time after the examination to explain the options and he was able to find a solution that did not involve surgery which was exactly what I was hoping for, bottom line I had a very positive experience with not only the Doctor, his nurse and the entire office. I would certainly recommend them to others.
