    Dr. Young is an outstanding PCP! She is kind, she listens, she explores options with you, she speaks WITH you not AT you. I always leave her office feeling like i was heard.

    I can't express enough how grateful I am to have Dr. Young as my personal primary physician. From my very first appointment, I felt welcomed and respected. The office atmosphere is warm and comforting, with staff members that are pleasant, professional and considerate. Dr. Young takes the time to listen attentively to all my concerns and never rushes through appointments. She looks you in the eye instead of typing on the computer and gives ample time for true back and forth dialogue and a genuine old-fashioned conversation between two people about health and life. Her explanations are clear and thorough, ensuring I understand my health conditions and the options available to me. Dr. Young has holistic approach. She doesn't just treat symptoms; she looks at the bigger picture, considering lifestyle factors that contribute to my health going forward Overall, I highly recommend Dr. Young to anyone seeking a compassionate, knowledgeable, and dedicated physician. She has made a real difference in my life, eased any concerns I had about my health and I am confident she would do the same for others.

    I cannot say enough positive things about Dr. Young. She is incredibly kind, thoughtful, patient and caring. She has provided me with empathy, support and encouragement, without judgement, to maintain and improve my health. She has listened to everything I've told her and considered that when making recommended steps to make positive changes to my lifestyle. Instead of dreading my annual exam, I look forward to it with her. She takes time to ask about all aspects of my life, including my family, and keeps all of these details in mind for all of my appointments. I feel she is paying attention to me as a whole to make really helpful suggestions that I can actually implement. I feel I am receiving personalized medicine at these appointments! She has helped me through incredibly stressful periods of my life and I feel incredibly fortunate to be her patient. I am very appreciative that she is open to me using acupuncture and my desire to minimize taking medications. She instead offers me lifestyle changes to support my health goals. She really meets me where I am at. I cannot say enough good things about Dr Young and strongly recommend her to other patients. I hope to transition my boys from their pediatrician to her care if possible when the time comes.

    Dr. Young is an excellent listener and processes all information that is shared with her. As for diagnostics she seems weak sometimes when she does not clearly give more confident guidance on next steps. I don't think this is from a lack of experience, but rather a desire to not seem too aggressive or directive out of deference to the patient. In other words, I would appreciate her more firm opinion with clear options for followup.
