The best. Listens, advises, extremely knowledgeable. My thyroid would be gone by now had I listened to an earlier surgeon's diagnosis of cancerous nodules. Dr. Yim tested and found I had no cancer, so no surgery needed! Highly recommended.

My endo referred me to an ENT, but he would not tell us how many surgeries he had performed, so that was a big red flag! My husband researched and found Dr Yim. I had my TT in 2012, he did a great job eventhough my thyroid was very diseased and stuck to my vocal chords. I have had no problems with my voice or with my parathyroid glands. He is very informative and spent time with my husband and I and answered all our questions. I would highly recommend him.

Dr. Yim is a brilliant surgeon. He removed my cancerous thyroid, and I experienced minimal pain even straight out of post-op care. He was also very compassionate and allayed my fears. My scar is barely noticeable. He attributed that to my skin healing well, but I'm sure that his surgical ability played a part too!

Dr. Yim is the best doctor I've ever had. He knows what he's doing. He really cares about giving the best care to his patients & always takes time to make sure you're educated about your situation as opposed to a lot of other doctors who just treat you. There's no ego, and he is very friendly. In my case, he enlisted the help of a second doctor who had more experience with the situation I was in. Even if you prefer female doctors, you'd feel comfortable with him. Most importantly, he did an amazing surgery.
