Jerry Yang

Always a very good experience. He was very vigilant of my health and always followed through.

Good

I am a friend of a patient and during the visit, the care provider made more eye contact to me than actual patient. Care provider didn't really resolve the medical Issue the patient had. Left the clinic with more questions than answers.

They failed to submit the incomplete FMLA forms until which my FMLA was denied which can cause problem with my employer in the future. This must be fix and the MA just ignore it.

Dr Yang has been great with my concerns, future treatments/lab and medication orders. Thank you.

Waiting for test order ...

Overall very pleased with doctor. Not so please with his office's follow up. Still waiting for supplies to be ordered after 1 month.

Dr. Yang had excellent patient care and bed side manner, answered all my questions with clarity and brevity, as well as made me feel extremely comfortable for the whole visit. Glad to have him as my PCP!

Dr Yang is top notch ! He listens, articulates to my level, and is accurate. It's a pleasure to be his patient

1) PCP shouldn't push everything to specialists.2) PCP should be more responsible than put themself in a safe position. A safe position means that any answer from PCP is ambiguous. A safe position will make it impossible for patients to sue/complain about PCP, but meanwhile, PCP will rarely help patients solve practical difficulties.3) Let me give you an example. A patient's upper and lower gastrointestinal endoscopy found no bleeding from the beginning of the esophagus, including the stomach, down to the intestinal tract. At the same time, no polyps and no masses were found in the gastrointestinal system. Although this patient was diagnosed as esophageal adenocarcinoma with metastases to the liver and lungs, the recent PETCTs of the patient also showed that the disease was well controlled. His primary site of esophageal cancer in the esophagus has been reported several times as "again not well seen, and no significant hypermetabolism." However, the PCP wrote the follow up question as: Gi bleeding due to esophageal cancer. His purpose in doing this is to push all problems to specialists and put himself in a safe position. My summary: too irresponsible doctor.4) I have been observing the annual evaluation of the top ten hospitals in the United States by US NEWS. I'm sad to see UCSF fall out of the top 10 in 2023. But I am even more regretful to say that if UCSF is full of such types of doctors, then UCSF will not even be able to enter the top 20.

Very good service

Dr. Yang is great! He is friendly, professional and very prompt when looking at test results, etc. Highly recommended!

There were things in the After Visit Summary that were never mentioned during the visit. For instance, chronic kidney disease and colon polyps.

He is exelent doctor

Very professional medical doctor and team

This was first visit after switching PCPs. I needed Prescriptions filled, medical supplies ordered, lab tests ordered and referrals to specialist. Waiting now to see if all provided.

Dr Yang was amazing, easy to talk to, listened to all my issues without rushing me

I have already referred a patient to the practice.

Dr didn't review my history, be it briefly prior to my arrival. I had to have him check the visits on my chart.

As my first appointment with a new primary care physician, the experience was very disappointing and am going to call my insurance to ensure this appointment is not counted as my yearly phyiscal.

Dr. Yang was excellent

Very good Thank you!

I'm glad to have Dr. Yang as my new primary care provider. We had a pleasant first encounter and I felt that I was able to address and discuss my medical history and concerns.

Dr. Yang, consistently provides a thorough Notes and Summary of Visit Description (notes for me to follow up on), etc.

My experiences with dr. Yang are uniformly good.

Dr. Yang is very helpful, good listener, and pleasant.

Patience and empathy

Dr. Yang is a great physician!

Dr Yang connected my previous to this clinical visit. He listened actively with my concerns. We collaborated with the new treatment and medications together pleasantly and professionally. Thank you.

Overall good experience with Dr. He was helpful and cared about all of my potential medical Issues asking me what else he could help with repeatedly at the end of the appointment. This was great! The only negative comment was that he was not able to be at all helpful on advising me about whether the bloodwork would be covered by insurance and if not how much I would pay for it. Even if it is covered by insurance, I am expecting to pay out of pocket because I haven't met my deductible, so I wanted to know at least a ballpark cost estimate. Dr was not able to give me any sense of what the cost of the service will be. Could be he said, could be . My experience would have been improved if he had been able to give me a more confident expectation about this, and if he had showed more sympathy with my desire to know.

Kind demeanor and very helpful with my questions.

Dr. Yang appeared friendly during the visit, but was not interested in referring me to an OBGYN. He told me that UCSF doctors are too sophisticated to administer regular women's health check ups such as pap smears, but that he would be willing to do it for me himself in his office. I was quite surprised by his comment. I later passed by UCSF's Women's Health Center and they told me Dr. Yang's comments were inaccurate and unacceptable, and that I can make an appointment to see a UCSF gynecologist by calling the Mt. Zion office.Additionally, when Dr. Yang mentioned that I should get a blood test done, he told me that he was unsure whether or not it would be covered by insurance, so I should go to the Mission Bay lab and check with the receptionist. I follow his instructions, but in Dr. Yang's after-visit summary, he wrote that "I like to get all the blood tests done regardless of whether it will be covered by my insurance." This is untrue and in no way reflects the nature of our conversation.He also wrote other things in his doctor's notes that weren't checked during our annual physical exam, such as the condition of my mouth, eyes, abdomen, spine, etc. He also wrote that he encouraged my to exercise, maintain a healthy diet, wear helmet, not smoke, and wear sunscreen, but all of that wasn't discussed during our visit either.This was the first time I saw Dr. Yang, and I the visit left me very disappointed and uncomfortable. I no longer trust his medical advice or his doctor's notes and will be looking for a new primary care provider.

I have lots of choices, and I pick Dr Yang because of his knowledge, depth or listening to me, breadth of answers, and he cares!!!

Very efficient, but also felt a bit rushed.

Dr Yang is wonderful. Thank you.

Made a comment that was not called for regarding me voicing my health concerns. He said I should not come to the doctor 2-3 years and expect him to heal all my alimentants. Which was not the truth and I had to speak to him regarding statement.

Dr. Yang referred me to a specialist and discussed all the options I have, the possible causes of my issue etc.. Very productive and friendly meeting.

I do not feel that my provider has much connection with me as a person or patient.

Dr. Yang is very kind and listens well. He always asks if I have more questions. Medical assistant is also kind. Medical student was very good. This is a great practice.

Dr. Yang is an excellent physician and my wife has seen him too.

I really appreciate being able to see so caring, knowledgeable, detailed, organized, and empathetic a provider as Dr. Yang. I wish I had come to his practice years ago.

It was an introductory meeting. Nothing really key to discuss
