My provider dr. Yama was a good listener and gave me the best treatment I expected
Providence Patient
I felt that I needed to be seen in person not thru telemedicine so my provider can take my vitals. I asked to see him when I had a flu.

The Dr is one of the best I've ever had. I've recommended him to multiple friends. He is attentive and has a no nonsense approach to his practice.
Providence Patient
He discussed specialists, ordered lab work and scheduled a follow up appointment. He is very easy to talk to and I felt that he wanted me to be comfortable with our next steps.
