Dr. Young is a thoughtful and highly compassionate doctor. I am grateful to have had her by my side during such a scary and challenging time in my life. As a surgeon, she is also highly skilled and attentive. She took much care and detail to ensure that I was always well-informed and always took the time to answer my questions to better support my state of mind and overall recovery.

Dr. Young is a smart, compassionate and thorough physician. She works hard in gaining the trust of her patients, and I felt at ease with her very quickly. Dr. Young is an excellent choice for breast care needs.

Dr. Young is a credit to the profession. She is prepared, thorough, knowledgeable and caring. Her staff is amazing and so kind. I actually moved away from the area, but came back to Dr. Young because she is so good. I called her office out of the blue one day and actually got to speak to her directly. How many doctors can you get on the phone immediately? I bet none. She helped me so much through my cancer journey and gave me hope for a future when things were looking bleak. Her list of positive attributes is too long to fit here, so I’ll cut myself off. If you need breast surgery, look no further than this surgeon.

5 out of 5 stars

I have never had such a thorough physician. She explains everything and comes into every visit prepared. It is refreshing having someone so organized, understanding and easy to talk to. She was a blessing to me.
