After feeling very ill for years I finally went to Dr. Yam, a naturopath...I didn't believe in them but was desperate as I could not function due to almost daily migraine, fatigue and dizziness. I followed what Dr. Yam asked me to do, re diet and supplements. Within two weeks I was remarkably better. Now a month later I feel like a new woman. I hve energy enough to work out for an hour each day, I no longer need naps. My migraines have disappeared and I have no more dizziness. Dr. Yam is very caring, helpful, knowledgable and has a great 'bedside manner'. He is one of the most caring doctors I have ever had the pleasure to meet. I now believe in Naturopathic doctors...well, at least Dr. Yam.
I took laser acupuncture from Dr. Yam for about 3 months last year. His bedside manner was rather cool, dhe id not make eye contact or smile and he rarely asked me how I was doing during the treatments. The treatments did absolutely nothing for my menopausal issues. He recommended purchasing lots of herbs which I bought but were a waste of money. I think he could have more thorough in investigating my issues such as taking blood samples and possibly recommending biodentical hormones. I have been to my GP since then and have been put on HRT. All my menopausal symptoms - anxiety, poor sleep, memory issues - are now GONE.
I have been a patient of Dr. Yam for almost 20years. I highly recommend and believe in his wellness practices. For me Dr. Yam practices preventitive medicine by sharing his wealth of knowledge and recommendations with me and then leaves it up to me to follow if I wish. Over the years he has been able to help me help myself with any medical or emotional symptoms I have had, including the disapearance of a cyst on my ovary and endometrioses. He has excellent staff and he himself has a gentle and caring nature.
Dr. Yam absolutely changed my life! His cures aren't as simple as a pill, but he is extremely knowledgeable and if you follow his orders you'll have amazing results. I recommend him highly.
Dr. Yam is a very, kind, compassionate naturopath. He has training in other areas of health as well. He has a very good, welcoming staff. I have always been treated well and learned years ago from him, about acid/alkaline balancing, and many other things that have now become more mainstream. He has always kept a well-ordered clinic, always on time and uses his time well with a patient. His family have at times been active in his clinic and are equally compassionate and kind.
had my son tested for allergies and if I believed that results he is allergic to everything, even things that he has NEVER been in contact with to become allergic too, was so overwelmed by the list and what he couldnt' eat, I left disappointment that I spent that much money and didn't have any clearer picture of what to do to help.
