She spends a lot of time with you to discuss your test reports and immediately gives you a copy of the report for your files, if you want it.

Last year I was diagnosed with a very common case of breast cancer and it was Dr. Yelamanchi who had to call me with the results of the biopsy. She was extremely sensitive and caring in giving me the results and gave me her opinion of the severity of my case. ALL of the doctors she referred me to for my cancer treatment were the BEST of the BEST. As a matter of fact, all the referrals respect Dr. Y very much, as they have in their files upon my arrival, a complete profile of my health from her so they can treat me appropriately.

Since then, she has also referred me to a few other specialists and after visiting with them, I call her to rave about the high quality and expertise of all her associate doctors. My neurologist was absolutely brilliant, my gyno was very good, insightful and sensitive and my oncologist was brilliant (esp his NP).

I have had many sinus infections and have never been referred to Urgent Care by her staff. Obviously, I am there very often so have become very well known by the staff and the doctor.

Her office is very very busy because she is so good, so it may be a little difficult to get an appointment but once you see her, she will give you all the time you require.

BTW, I do not want to have test results communicated to me by staff, I would rather reschedule and appt to talk to the doctor herself.

I highly recommend Dr. Y and her staff.

I agree. I have been seeing her for about 9 months and she has always been professional, friendly and responsive. I
