      I had many questions as I have a new machine type (bi-level) along with mask seal questions. Dr. Yuen patiently made machine adjustments and took time to explain rationale for all actions she took. Very excellent and useful visit

      We had a nice conversation about my treatment and she interpreted my results for me in a very helpful way. She gave me good advice on specific issues I was having and gave strategies on how to address them in the future. She was very personable and a good listener. She explained the changes she was making in my prescription and the reasoning behind them. I felt I was able to participate in my care.

      Dr. Yuen was extremely knowledgeable. She explained how my anatomy impacted my breathing which in turn impacted my sleep and my overall health. I learned many things that I was not aware of prior to the visit. I highly recommend her!
