WHAT OUR PATIENTS SAY
Really kind & patient Dr/staff. We didn't feel rushed, and Dr Yazdi is very knowledgeable, thorough & modest. It's not been so easy to find drs with these qualities. You won't be disappointed at this practice

Michelle K.

Very thoughtful, took their time answering all my questions and gave tons of attention to my little baby during our visit. So happy we went here!

Alisha G.

I almost don't want to refer him so he doesn't get too busy for us. He and his staff absolutely delivered. He has obvious experience with children GI but also a tremendous understanding of the psychology of the adolescent mind. I wouldn't bring my kids to anyone else. He was referred to us by Dr. Degurse.
