Yeh Md David

After suffering with back pain for over 10 years and not being «broken» enough to be fixed, I was finally at the point where it was time for surgery. After seeing the doctor that I thought was going to do the surgery, and when looking for answers regarding questions that I had, was told that «magic» would happen it the operating room. What does that mean? A friend who had worked in the medical field for years asked his contacts if they had any recommendations for a surgeon. Dr. David Yeh’s name was given to me, and I am thankful that it was. Within a month, he confirmed with past MRI’s, medical records, and X-​rays that I needed a titanium disc at L5-​S1, and surgery was scheduled. He answered all of my crazy questions, and my husband and I really liked how he took his time with us. He was very compassionate and knowledgable. The surgery was this past September at Good Samaritan Hospital in Los Gatos. I am a totally different person. Even though I am still recovering, total recovery is a year, I am back at my Pilates class and walking most every day. I have always been an active person, and I am looking forward to be able to do things that I couldn’t do before. I am very grateful to Dr. David Yeh. I would recommend him to anyone with pain.

Thanks to Dr. David Yeh, I am smiling again. I suffered for many years with neck pain. On Thanksgiving 2014, I went down hard. It took 5 doctors to diagnose me with a c6−7 herniated disc. and bone spur. With rt arm neuropathy, with a vice like grip on my upper arm. Which included numbness and tingling. After 4 long months bedridden and in severe pain, he did cervical arthroplasty on 3÷30÷15. I feel like a new person, I have my life and independence back. I cannot thank you enough Dr. Yehッ

first of all let me say how dr yeh is the kindest most caring surgeon. Amazing! I may end up having back surgery in the future and I will have him do it. He is careful, conservative, honest. My mother was mainly in a wheel chair. Could barely walk due to her arthritis in her back. It was a hot mess. Was referred to him from our Nuerologist. He could see my mom was in distress. She also had a lot of underlying health issues that made her back surgery high risk. He was very careful. She came out of surgery great. The next day her back pain and sciatica was gone (except for post op pain). She was able to walk down the hall and back the next day! When she was unable to walk at all! He was so pleased with himself for being able to help her and for my mom because he gave her her life back. I am so grateful. And a special than you for janin S. My fellow Unilocaler that did a review for him. I sent her a compliment and she messaged me back and her story helped me during my moms surgery to keep me hopeful that he would do her some good. She’s walking everywhere now. Every day her balance is getting better and better. He’s been fllowing up with her to make sure she’s totally better. So thank you dr yeh! You are a amazing doctor. Thanks for giving my mom her life back. She’s so happy. Off her pain meds. Walking. He’s my mommas hero. Ps there was another patient in the waiting room that was in a wheel before her surgery also walking after surgery.

During such a time of distress for my family, Dr Yeh was calm, very communicative and caring. My brother in law ruptured a disk and the primary care doctor didn’t do the best job treating it or explaining it to him. After a friend referred him to Dr Yeh, he was able to get the appropriate imaging done, get an appointment quickly, and get on the necessary medication to begin the healing process. He did a fabulous job treating my brother (and his family!) and is not one of the surgeons that pushes you in to surgery. He definitely took a more conservative approach! Such a breath of fresh air! Highly recommend Dr Yeh.

Dr. Yeh and I met inadvertently as I was in the hospital to give birth to my very first child which very quickly turned from the best day of my life to one of the hardest, as during labor I ruptured 2 discs in my neck/​spine (c5/​6). My OB sent Dr. Yeh in as I was having a lot of pain in my «shoulder» Dr. Yeh sent me in for an MRI when everyone was in the hospital was stating I had a sprained Rotator Cuff. Dr. Yeh very quickly diagnosed me and informed me that I needed to have surgery immediately as I was very lucky to still be walking with the injury I had as the discs had not just ruptured they fragmented as well. This was all a very huge shock to me as I had a baby that was barely 12 hours old, Dr. Yeh sat with my husband and I while I cried, as the last thing I wanted to do was be rushed into surgery after giving birth to my son, Dr. Yeh was very caring and sensitive to my situation. He did not come off as your typical Dr. he was very considerate and allowed me the time to make a very hard decision all the while explaining the severity of the situation I was in without setting me into panic mode. Dr. Yeh’s bedside manner is amazing and for that alone I adore him. Now for the most important part, he performed the surgery which very easily could have left me paralyzed and today I am not only walking and exercising again I am pain free (3 months out of surgery). Dr. Yeh has a fan in my husband and I and we would recommend him to EVERYONE as their Neuro Surgeon. 5 Stars for Dr. Yeh!!!
