Kenneth Yang, M.D.
Gastroenterologist
About Kenneth Yang, M.D.
Why did you choose to specialize in Gastroenterology?
Out of the different subspecialties in Internal Medicine, I wanted to pursue a future in Gastroenterology because it combined direct patient care with the technical challenges of endoscopy. The variety of cases and people that I get to treat in a clinic setting is satisfying and continues to keep the field fresh, so that I have a desire to continue learning.
Do you have a specialty of interest within GI?
My main focus is general Gastroenterology including colon cancer prevention and GERD. I place a priority in providing quality care and an overall good patient experience
What do you and your family enjoy doing in your spare time?
In my spare time, I like to spend time with my family, run, cycle, and try different restaurants in the DFW metroplex. As a family, we love to be active and travel. One of my highlights every year is skiing.
Do you have any special honors or recognition in your medical career that you would like to share?
My chief residency during Internal Medicine training at UT Southwestern was a special honor which allowed me to work very closely with some amazing physicians who served as excellent mentors. I was able to present key research regarding improvements in colonoscopy at the national meeting during my last year of Gastroenterology fellowship.

Dr. Yang and the staff are very kind and professional. I highly recommend Dr. Yang!
Dr Yang is a good doctor one of those doctor that doesn't jump to aggressive care 1st. He likes to try everything before that for treatment...That is one thing I appreciate about Dr.Yang..
Great patient centered office. Took time to verify concerns.
I really appreciated the care and friendliness of all the staff. They were attentive to my needs and explained everything before they did something. Dr. Yang is himself exceptional and has an excellent bedside manner. I couldn't be happier.
Dr Yang is thorough with my history and takes time to discuss any issues or concerns I’m having. I trust his expertise and appreciate his concerned demeanor.
. I had a very short wait before being called back. The nurse and doctor listened to my questions and concerns. They discussed my treatment and provided written instructions for the recommended treatment. Highly recommend.
Love how Dr. Yang is so thorough, the staff is very nice and helpful
Absolutely love this doctor! Smart caring and very humble I found him from my sister who has worked at JPS as a healthcare provider for 45 years. She said all the physicians use him ! I’ve used him for over 10 years and wouldn’t use anyone else. He won’t do anything that isn’t just necessary and truly cares about his patients welfare. He’s hard to get into but so worth the wait. He also helped my husband years ago during a scare with his liver & he was so compassionate and on top of all the processes we would need to do to take care of him. So thankful for Dr Yang
Dr Yang has been taking care of me for over 14 years and only the utmost respect for his attention to detail and his diligent recommendations and care.
Professional staff. Exceptional care from beginning to the end. I cannot recommend them more highly.
Dr Kennerh Yang is the best! I've been a patient of his for many years and have always been content with his work. "Content" is a high praise word from me because I'm always anxious going in for a procedure, and as soon as he walks in and starts talking, he puts me at ease. He's very knowledgeable, and when giving the results, he speaks in plain English so that those of us who haven't gone to medical school can understand. I wouldn't even consider using another doctor with this specialty. Only one thing I can't figure out... After seeing Dr. Yang for more than 10 years, I can't figure out why I'm getting older, and he still looks the exact same!🤔
Great bedside manner. Certainly up on his craft. Highly recommended.
My husband and I both have used Dr Yang for several years. He questions you, listens to you and explains everything in detail. He is very friendly and has a great bedside manner. We both trust him very much with our health.....I would highly recommend him. Also, his staff is courteous and very helpful.
Dr Yang and his staff were amazing from beginning to end! The prep prior to the procedure was not bad, I felt great after!
I highly recommend Dr. Yang and his associates to anyone needing any gastrointestinal procedures. The pre-procedure consultation was informative, timely, and reassuring. The scheduling was accommodating and they provided clear pre-procedure instructions. During the procedure day the nurses were calming and informative. The anesthesiologist was thorough and Dr. Yang gave extensive information as to what the procedure would entail. He visited with me after the procedure to give me an update as to what the results were and next steps. I am very happy with the entire process and highly recommend.
I’ve been seeing Dr. Kenneth Yang for a number of yrs and have always felt that I receive safe and thorough care through him. He is knowledgeable, pleasant and direct, all of which I appreciate.
Dr. Yang was friendly, knowledgeable & kind. He seems genuine. He seems interested in treating the whole person & I value that. I highly recommend Dr. Yang.
The whole staff was very attentive and I did not feel rushed.
Dr. Yang is very attentive and listens carefully to your concerns. His only concern is what's best for you. His staff is a reflection of his awesome leadership skills. I highly recommend Dr. Yang.
