Dr Yim is great! He makes you feel comfortable talking to him. He explains things in terms you can understand and works with you to come up with a plan rather than just throwing some supplements at you. I highly highly recommend him. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

He is a great doctor. He makes you feel comfortable,able to ask questions and to learn and understand the health issues that you face. He spends whatever time is needed to explain to you what your health issue is and how he can help you help yourself, by lifestyle changes, diet, exercise, and natural supplements. He has been my naturopath for the past 10 years. I trust his judgement and his analysis of health issues faced by both myself and my husband. I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking a naturopathic doctor in Nanaimo.

I have seen Dr. Yim a few times over the past 10 years and have always been impressed with his knowledge, but more importantly, his ability to communicate that knowledge and translate it into do-able steps. He is constantly upgrading his skills and education, has never rushed me through a visit, and has always explained his recommendations clearly so that I understand not only what to do, but WHY. Very personable and friendly, with an obvious passion for what he does.

I was on hypertensive meds for 9 years and developed side effects. Then my traditional western doctor put me on another drug with the potential for scarier side effects. I aksed Dr. Yim if he could help me manage my blood pressure without meds. He took on the challenge and I've been doing very well now for 9 months. Preventative medicine means one has to take more responsibility for one's health -- eat better, exercise, meditate. I like it. It works for me and I'll ask Dr. Yim for help with other health issues should they arise.

Well-educated & well-rounded, knowledgeable. His education didn't stop when he got his degree. Always willing to take time & explain. Friendly, kind & decent. Was my massage therapist before he became a naturopath--now does accupuncture, nutritional counselling, pretty much whatever preventive medicine should be about. Good guy!

Dr Yim is an awesome Naturopath. Always has time to listen and gives excellent advice. Also, he and his wife give many free lectures at Island Naturals. He's well worth the visit.
