Dr. Yeh is one of those doctors that actually listens. He took time to hear my issues, looked at the MRI and X-rays then offered his professional advice. He exudes competence in a very quiet way. He knows his stuff and you can tell without him having to say much. But when he does talk, it is informative and knowledgeable. Great bedside manner too. He has a sense of humor but it is subdued. Clever. My wife and I knew from the first visit that this was the guy. 2 months after surgery and I'm walking without any pain. It feels like a miracle. I'd recommend Dr. Yeh to anyone suffering from debilitating back pain issues. Before surgery, I was hopeless and semi-depressed. Now I see positive. Thank you Dr. Yeh.

I am an avid cyclist and had a neck surgery on my C5-C6 and C6-C7 due to herniation with Dr. Yeh. Severe pain in my shoulder, weakness in my right triceps and wrist, numbness and tingling in the forearm and index finger and thumb. Six weeks post surgery and I got my lifestyle back with not a single nerve flareup! Dr. Yeh did a superb job and I consider my journey up to date remarkable. His bedside manners are outstanding and his staff, Dawn and Shaney, have been on point, great job and thank you!

God Sent!!!
It was truly a pleasure and a blessing! Firstly, let me give praise to his staff (Shanie) for being so professional, supportive, and kind to me. (First impression A+) Secondly, Dr. Peter J. Yeh is extremely knowledgeable and explained in laymen terms the pros and cons about my injury/surgery. This allowed me to make an informed decision about the ACDF surgery that I had been hesitant about for several years. Even though he knew I needed this procedure, he didn’t push me but made sure that I exhausted every other option first. My ACDF C3-C7 surgery took 8 hours, and I am very pleased at the outcome. On the day of my surgery, I was VERY nervous and scared. Dr. Yeh’s and Dawn Randazzo’s P.A. demeanor, intuitiveness and bed side manner instantly made me feel at ease. Because my skin keloids easily, I was worried about having an ugly surgical scar but thanks to his assistant Dawn Randazzo P.A. it is hardly noticeable! Both are gems! WONDERFUL and a warm EXPERIENCE! God bless this practice.

I can not express enough how grateful I am to Dr. Yeh and his staff! I was admitted to Houston Methodist hospital thru the Er on a Fri night with unbearable back pain from a slipped disc. When Dr Yeh came in the next day he told me he would be doing surgery on me on Monday and he then said that if I hadn't been in so much pain from that disc, he would fix my neck first! I had been told by another Dr that my neck was not able to be fixed and was sent to pain management. Dr. Yeh was able to fix my back and neck. I highly recommend Dr. Yeh!

Dr. Yeh performed ACDF surgery on my neck/back in August, 2021. He was referred to me by a close friend. I researched him and also met with him prior to surgery. I found that he is very experienced in performing this procedure. The surgery went very well. His staff is also easy to work with and the follow up with him and his staff was excellent. I highly recommend Dr. Yeh!

I chose Dr. Yeh after researching several other surgeons that had been recommended to me. I am just over four months post-op and I am so pleased with my results. Dr. Yeh recommended prior options and understood my desire to look at surgery as a last resort. He was very clear in explaining what the xray/MRI showed, the procedure, and what to expect post-op. His empathy and patience demonstrated his value on me as a patient. I highly recommend at least a consultation with Dr. Yeh before deciding on a neurosurgeon.

I was referred to Dr. Peter Yeh for treatment of lower lumbar disc deterioration. Dr. Yeh carefully and patiently presented treatment options and we decided on a laminectomy of L2 through L5. Dr. Yeh and his staff were wonderful throughout the entire procedure and I am completely happy with the result. Thank you Dr. Yeh!

I am status post 5 weeks from a discectomy on C4-C5 and C5-C6 and I feel wonderful, My vision, hearing, mobility, have been restored thanks to Dr. Yeh. I was on the verge of becoming paralyzed, and he took the time to listen and to care about my condition. Dr. Yeh is the only neurosurgeon or physician that I would allow to treat my spinal conditions. I will need 2 more surgeries on my cervical spine in the near future, and I am very confident that the surgeries will be great. Dr. Yeh is kind, considerate, compassionate and very highly skilled. His staff are also wonderful, compassionate, and willing to help any way they can. Thank you.

Pam Burke – Jan 22, 2020

Dr. Yeh is the best! He recently successfully performed lumbar surgery on me at 3 different levels. He is compassionate and caring and knew exactly what to do to alleviate my pain. It is my understanding that a significant number of back surgeries are failures as a result of surgeons not recognizing the actual problem. In fact, a Neurologist I went to 4 years ago stated my pain was not back related and would not listen to what I had told him. Previously, Dr. Robert Grossman, a renowned neurosurgeon, who knew I was a tennis player had told me that my back looked exactly like that of a former World No. 1 tennis player. Dr. Grossman knew I injured my back playing tennis. He told me to wait on surgery until the pain got worse. Once it did, Dr. Yeh, listened to me and knew exactly how to correct the problems. Others had not seen the problems. Some other Doctors did not want me to have an operation because they did not see the problem. Dr. Yeh won’t operate unless he thinks he can help.

This surgeon is first class, and at the top of his field. The procedures he employs are conservative so as to minimize risk. I have had three spinal surgeries, all with very quick recovery. Dr' Yeh's pre-care, in-hospital consults and post-care visits were all very re-assuring.

There aren't adequate enough words to express what an incredible surgeon and person Dr. Yeh is! He is not just kind and compassionate but is also one of the most professional doctors I've ever dealt with, as he takes the necessary amount of time to explain your issue and how he's going to treat it. Dr. Yeh has performed 3 neck and 1 back surgery in the last several years and restored my quality of life for which I will always be grateful! He and Dawn are the very best at what they do!

Dr. Yeh and his staff are the best! They are very professional and answered all of my questions. I went in because I couldn't swallow and Dr. Yeh took the necessary steps to identify the problem at the root and made sure I understood what he saw. I needed surgery and have an ACDF for 3 levels. The surgery went great and Dr. Yeh even made sure to speak with my mom after the surgery was completed. Excellent bedside manner and highly recommended!!
