The name Yorkville Medical Clinic is a little misleading if you were looking for a selection of…read moredoctors, but nevertheless, Dr. Yang does a good job at being the primary care physician for many Yorkville residents. His office is very clean and visually appealing for those who are looking for a good environment. There are quite a few medical assistants working there. Many of them are very friendly, but some of them seem like they couldn't care less about their jobs (or the patients). Dr. Yang himself is very nice and welcoming, but he may not always get right to the point, if at all. If you have a concern that hasn't been brought up, don't wait for him to uncover it. Be very specific about what you want to know, or else risk never getting an answer.
There usually isn't much of a wait if you call to make an appointment on short notice. Often, you'll be able to see him same day, sometimes even within the hour. The waiting room seats 6-8 or so people with an average of 3-4 occupying it at any given time, though there are busy days that leave you standing instead. The wait to get called back can take anywhere from 5-20 minutes, and after your vitals are recorded, the wait to see Dr. Yang is about the same.
He's quite professional and can also perform certain dermatological procedures in addition to routine medical ones, such as EKGs and ultrasounds. He's pretty much a one-stop spot for most of your medical needs, and he can usually refer you to a specialist if needed. He's usually pretty good for getting notes for school or work, unless you keep coming to him for them on a routine basis. In most cases, he prescribes the right medications for whatever is affecting you, but other times you may wonder what it's actually for. If you have a specific medical issue that you're seeking treatment for, you'll probably want to see a specialist instead, if possible.
All in all, he's a good primary care physician for the basics. No major complaints.
Pros: nice environment, friendly, can perform quite a few different procedures and tests, accepts All Kids/Medicaid, easy to see on short notice, not usually crowded, usually short wait times
Cons: doesn't give much explanation, may seem a little preachy, a few unlikeable med assistants, better to see a specialist whenever possible, doesn't always seem like he knows what he's talking about
