She is a very unethical doctor that is only concerned about how much money she can make and my…read moreexperience has proven that. I have TMJ and this year had gone through 3 root canals because of cracked teeth due to the TMJ. I had exhausted all other normal course of action to remedy and relieve the TMJ but nothing was working and was spending a lot of money on my dental work. My dentist introduced me to the option of Botox (pricey and not covered) and it had helped a lot. I reached out to my medical insurance to see if this could be a covered treatment for my TMJ as it would be needed every 3 month in my jaw and they said yes with a prior authorization and if a medical doctor administered it. I was thrilled because all the other medications and dental appliances I had tried had failed and the Botox provided relief to my painful jaw and I had hope it would prevent further cracking of anymore more teeth and I wouldn't have to shell out $1,000+ every 3 months since it was not cosmetic related. I had reached out to some in network dermatologist and quickly found out that doctors did not want to help me or provide that service as in network or help me submit the PA which I now know is because they want people to pay the full cost of the Botox even if for medical reasons. Then I found Doctor Austin and she said she would help me but I needed to submit it on my own but would give me the codes and information I needed but due to the extensive extra work on their end I would need to do it which was totally fine. She and was in network but I was grateful, I told her my troubles in finding an in network doctor willing to help me. We agreed that I would pay cash up front and I would submit my bill to my insurance because she was weary my insurance would not reimburse her but with my PA approved I was not worried. My insurance company informed me it was odd that she did not bill them for the service directly since the PA was approved but either way the Botox for my jaw was fully approved and she had a contracted rate per unit with my insurance. Before paying, the Doctor mentioned to me that she had many patients come in with PA and were not successful in getting reimbursed which I thought was an odd comment to make since I had all the proper documents and asked if I would send her a copy of the PA. I paid $1,125 for 80 units so $14 a unit on a credit card and was not charged a 3% processing fee. She sent me a super bill and worked with me a few times on the revision that my insurance needed so she knew I was billing my insurance. My insurance also had been sending her copies of everything (again they were treating her like a regular in network provider despite me paying cash upfront like an out of network provider) A few months later after I get the EOB from my insurance company which stated they would be reimbursing me $404.48, my portion that I owed was $101.12 but then it stated amount saved for using an in network provider was $619.40. I called my insurance to ask what that amount was and was told that amount is owed to me from the Doctor since she is in network, that is the contracted rate she agreed to for the service she gave you and they advised me to contact her for a refund. I was thrilled as I was going to save even more after spending thousands on my teeth and even more on prior Botox at dental offices and now this will be covered under my insurance plan, this is when things got ugly. After leaving a voicemail at the main doctor's office I get a call from the Doctors billing department from a woman who is irate (gave no name). She told me the following: the Doctor is terminating our patient/doctor relationship due to my insurance low bill rates, the Doctor had no idea I was going to bill my insurance, the doctor should have made me sign something prohibiting me from going to my insurance, now that I have gone to my insurance the doctor is taking a loss on this service. I assume most in network patients who the doctor has helped with PA previously probably get the check from their insurance providers thinking that is all they are owed and never go back to Dr Austin for the remaining balance and I was the first one to do it and she was upset that I did (again I assume because my experience with in network doctors is they were unwilling to help me with medical Botox). Unfortunately, I did not receive cosmetic Botox and the Doctor is an in-network provider and is obligated to bill rates assigned by the insurance company and in return she gets patient referrals. She then goes to process a refund to my method of payment on my credit card that I paid off 3 months ago for $600.82 with a receipt she charged me showing a 3% credit card processing of $18.50! She never charged me that when I paid for the services the first time and nothing in my patient paperwork stated paying with a credit card comes with a fee. It was very petty and felt almost personal.

Dr. Yuan graduated from Johns Hopkins University Medical School after an undergraduate degree from UC Berkeley. She did a residency at Cedars. Her educational background isn't to be questioned but it was her personal demeanor that impressed me. The appointment was so thorough, the questions so thoughtful, and the treatment of the patient so empathetic, that I knew we made a great decision to see her. We had a surgery scheduled elsewhere that was postponed within two weeks of the date of surgery. Dr. Yuan met within us three days of the postponement. It was out of network for our insurance coverage and all was set up through Melody, her office assistant who couldn't be nicer nor more communicative. No guesswork here, all explained. They will get through barriers of bureaucracy if possible. And they will find a way to help. Real compassion. The office itself is in a building with free parking, not an easy find in this area. Quick aside, the views of the mountains from the patient rooms are astounding. Alll the equipment and furniture is pristine and good luck finding any dust or lint. When going under the knife or arranging a surgery for a loved one, you need to have trust and faith in the surgeon and the journey from start to after care. Building that trust quickly to schedule a surgery is a hard ask. Yet, it developed over the time spent in the consolation and with the absolute professionalism throughout the booking experience and initial consultation. Dr. Yuan also provided pictures of successful surgeries she has completed. All in all, a first class experience with genuine human connection that isn't easy to describe but you will know it when you feel it. Certainly worth your time to seek her opinion and see if it is a fit for your needs.

Warning: Do not go to this facility unless you are prepared for the possibility that a medical…read morecomplication may not be handled appropriately by the provider. I was a patient here and underwent a surgical procedure that caused me significant pain immediately afterward. Even after a full year of repeatedly reporting my pain, discomfort, and a terrible aesthetic result--including a visible bulge in my abdomen--I was consistently dismissed. I was told everything was "fine" and that there was nothing wrong. I was the one who had to push for an ultrasound, which ultimately led to a misdiagnosis and the conclusion that nothing could be done. A year and a half later, my suffering had not stopped, so I sought second opinions from other providers. Both of them immediately recognized the diagnosis. It is, unfortunately, a known and relatively common complication of the type of surgery I had. The fact that my original doctor never acknowledged this possibility was deeply concerning. This experience has caused significant psychological stress, ongoing physical pain, missed work, and additional medical procedures. I have now had to take more time off to undergo corrective surgery, I am left with a permanent scar that would never have existed otherwise, and I have spent thousands of dollars out of pocket to repair the damage with a different doctor. What is most upsetting is that I did go back to the original provider, explained the correct diagnosis, and requested a refund based on what happened. I was told that I had received a "beautiful result," despite the clear physical deformity and the painful complication that had been overlooked for over a year. My concerns were dismissed, minimized, and ultimately ignored. At this point, I have no choice but to warn others about how complications may be handled here if something goes wrong with your procedure. I am also now forced to pursue board complaints and legal action, which is something I never wanted to do. I genuinely tried to resolve this directly. No response they leave on this review will change how this situation was handled.
