Dr. Yang was the saving grace of my experience at the hospital. She was kind, understanding, and patient. She understood my fear and anxiety which was created by past negative GYN experiences. She and I discussed what she could do to help make my experience more tolerable, and most importantly kept every promise she made to me regarding the procedure. She showed she cared about my trauma and did everything she could to make the process as easy as possible for me. She is the only reason I am still considering going through with my next surgery at NM in December.
