out of Read Reviews for Dr. Lyle Yanagihara
We initially consulted with Dr. Yanagihara for a procedure to remove my 6 year-old son's tooth. There was a disconnect in our communication regarding the follow up surgery; therefore, no follow up occurred. We were personally blamed for the failure to respond, and treated in a condescending manner. Dr. Yanagihara's unprofessionalism warranted us to seek a different provider. His lack of personality and good patient service makes me appreciate that this fallout occurred as I would be horrified to have a person of this temperment working on my child. I would not recommend his services to anyone, particularly to parents of young children.

I was glad to be referred to Dr. Yanagihara. The outcome of my oral surgery was much better than expected at my age. Office workers were very professional and efficient.

Wow! Dr. Yanagihara and his staff are so good!
I'm sitting here with gauze in my mouth right now. I just got home from his office -- he pulled two teeth. I've never had that done before... and I avoid pain like crazy, especially anything close to nerve endings! But Dr. Yanagihara and his assistant took great care of me and made this unpleasant necessity a very positive experience. I'm so amazed and impressed, and really grateful to have been referred to him.
I like the way he works: efficient and kind. Though I hope I never have to see him again ... and I didn't actually "like" having my teeth pulled!... I think he and his staff are awesome. I'd go back to him if I had to, and I highly recommend him to anyone who needs work done.
Also... at the end, his assistant went over the things I should and shouldn't do to care for myself, and I thought she communicated really well. Patient, mellow, easy to remember, and thorough. I felt like I got really great care all around. (And they sent me home with written instructions, too.)
One last thing: If I felt any discomfort, he'd stop and make adjustments. He didn't "push my limits," so I started to realize I could trust him. That's a big thing. I really appreciated that.
