Very good bed side manners, listens with empathy and cares. Extremely knowledgeable and demonstrated his experience and preference around CPAPs for optimal patient outcomes. Dr Yeam spent a lot of time with me due to my complex history and recent health issues. I did not feel rushed at all; quite the opposite, he took time to answer my questions and offer his perspectives. Also provided referrals for other doctors to treat my underlying conditions. I felt very well cared for and confident in his treatment plan. Highly recommend!

Useless and moronic doctor
I visited with Dr Yeam asking about how to treat my asthma and he told me to do yoga. That’s it. No inhaler or anything. Just yoga. This guy must be an idiot.

During my first visit Dr. Yeam told me that I need to use my CPAP/APAP machine throughout the entire night. Then he changed the setting on my equipment to much stronger airflow. Since ever he changed the settings, I am unable to use my equipment because the new settings give me intense pain and choking episodes in sleep. They are harmful and scary. I went back to him twice asking to reset it back to the original but it turned out to be a real problem. Either the original settings were not properly documented or the changes he made were not properly documented, the machine did not get completely reset and as a result it is useless. Now Dr. Yeam is telling me that I don't need use my APAP machine at all that I will be fine without it. Please note that within one month I received completely opposite recommendations from him: in October he recommends more usage and intensifies the airflow in my machine, in November he says that I don't need to use it at all. Which one is true?

My 1st visit I was very impressed with how thorough and caring Dr Yeam was. My New Patient appt was 1 1/2 hrs and it flew by. He asked many questions and got the names of my other Drs so he could co-ordinate with them to offer me the best course of action for my sleep problems. I am very much looking forward to working with him and feel confident that he can help me and offer me sound medical advice and a better life.

Dr Yeam changed my cpap mask and my machine's pressure after only knowing me for a few minutes. My old sleep Dr would order me to take a testing machine home for 2-3 nights before making any changes.
