I'm not sure why this MD has so many negative reviews. I came to see Dr. Yost when I had my first ever hives outbreak (had been a few weeks and I had a hard time getting off work). I had no problem getting scheduled and she was the most thorough doctor I have ever seen. She listened so well and was really just excellent. Not only did she help me find the source of my hives, she helped me to better manage my chronic allergies. I started allergy testing with her and though my schedule isn't good for it right now, I will definitely return to her to finish when I can. I have never had a doctor spend so much time with me or be so attentive. Her administrative assistant is also very polite and helpful. I have never experienced long wait times, and I also would advise that for those that have, if you talk to her in addition to her practice she teaches and does several other things. Having a physician who is involved in up to date activities is valuable to me and I wouldn't mind a wait.

My experience with Dr Yost has been wonderful. Dr Yost is extremely attentive, caring, and very invested her patients. I would recommend Dr Yost to anyone dealing with allergies.

I have worked with her for many years. Flexible and easy to work with. I'm only writing this review as a counter point to the other reviewer who has had a very different experience.

I would give this doctor five NEGATIVE stars if it were an option. First of all, two times I scheduled the first appointment of the day at 8AM. BOTH times, I arrived at her office at 8AM, which also happened to be before she arrived for the day. I had to wait in the lobby for her to arrive 15 minutes late both times. I would walk up with her while she opened her office and then I had to sit for 30-45 minutes while she unpacked her briefcase, organized her files and prepared for her day! I have been to several allergy & asthma doctors before and have never had as many repetitive tests before. I decided to switch doctors because I felt like I was a cash cow to her. She completely scared me off when she kept pushing the expensive allergy shots on me and how I would need them TWICE a week. Her only staff is undergrad student interns and her office is a lobby and one room with her desk in it. I wouldn't call it a doctor's office at all. When I called to have my medical records sent to another doctor, faxed a signed consent form and confirmed the fax delivery, I heard no response. I followed up with her receptionist FIVE TIMES over the course of almost 60 days and still she has not sent my medical records. I have left my phone number and numerous messages about how imperative it is that she send my records as soon as possible. Her receptionist even admitted that she will brush everything off until the authorities get involved. I told him to relay the message that I will be filing a formal complaint with the Department of Health and Human Services, that she has violated my health information privacy right (HIPAA) by not giving me access to my medical records. I was fortunate enough to obtain her email address, which her receptionist told me that she will definitely check because she cares more about her email than probably her patients, so I will be sending her a strongly worded email hoping to make some progress, but it sounds like I will need to take legal action now to get anywhere. I haven't been able to continue my immunization therapy without my medical records, so my treatment has been completely sabotaged by her and I will now need to start over from the beginning. She is COMPLETELY and utterly irresponsible, unprofessional, untrustworthy and the epitome of con-artist. Please spare your time, money and overall health by going to a credible doctor instead of this pathetic hack.
