When I have had procedures scheduled, I am so comfortable in his care. Dr. Yalam has a wonderful person who you may see after the appt with him. Her name is Mattie. She schedules procedures and any other things for him.. She has been with him for as long as I can rrmember. She also is amazing!!"
"Dr Yalan was very professional and answered all my questions; this was my first time seeing him, but he had my previous records and had gone over them. Mattie ( Maddie?) in the front office made my day/ very helpful, friendly and funny. On the other hand , the other receptionists need to take a class on making eye contact, being welcoming and not asking personal questions at the front window! ( hippa rules still apply)"
"Very efficient office and Dr. Yalam answered all my questions and more."
"Dr Yalam is outstanding. He listens and does not rush to throw medicines at me until he runs only necessary tests to determine the best course. I have been suffering from stomach issues for years and even the Mayo Clinic was baffled. They recommended surgery (which I got) but my discomfort remained. Dr Yalam has taken the time to find what works for me and keeps me as comfortable as possible. He never rushes. If you want the best of the best, go see Dr Yalam. Maddie will take care of getting you scheduled for any procedures or tests and she is AWESOME!"

"A GREAT and CONCERNING Doctor."
"I have had ear issues for over 40 years now. I always get anxiety issues when I have to go in for these check ups and any procedures. Dr. Yalam has some of the best bedside manner’s that I’ve ever had the pleasure of receiving from a doctor. He explained, step-by-step, the procedure that we were going to move forward with. Then he also offered a Plan B and plan C if my nervousness would not allow me to complete the first recommended plan. The procedure went much better than I had anticipated and actually didn’t take near the time that I thought it would. I would highly recommend Dr. Yalam and will no longer go into an ear exam or appointment, with the nervousness that I have had for many years in the past. I can’t thank you enough, Dr. Yalam, for the care you provided. All the best to you and your staff"

"I've never heard of a single person claiming that their gastroenterologist was so wonderful. Dr Yallam goes above and beyond. He is courteous, professional, and makes you feel comfortable about the entire process. I had a large hiccup in the beginning and had to delay my appointment three times. I must have drove the staff crazy with that, but after I was finally able to make it, things were smooth sailing. He is even very prompt."
