    Dr Yee is a kind, compassionate provider. What really separates him from most doctors is his lack of arrogance. It's noticed and appreciated!

    Yes, my consult with Dr. Yee and his assistants and his nurse were excellent. They were timely, they explained everything thoroughly, very cordial, very professional, and I feel very confident in knowing what I'm supposed to do before my procedure. And so I would, that's why I gave them all high ratings. Yes, I feel very confident in that and think WalkOn is very lucky to have them as doctors and nurses and support staff. Thank you.

    In addition to my recent colonoscopy and left wrist surgery last month I have needed to see a dermatologist (after seeing my personal dr. which I have done). While there are dermatologists in LaCrosse, there are none in nearby Decorah clinic -- none close to my residence -- not even part time. More effort needs to be done to recruit at least a pair of dermatologists to this NE Iowa area, or at least bring one or more in on a visiting basis.

    Scheduling should be described as colonoscopies, or normally a 10 a.m. arrival at 9 a.m., and then they will adjust as needed. A lot of confusion over the schedule timing.

    Dr. Yee is a wonderful doctor. He is kind, gentle and very attentive. I have gone to him now 3 times to have basal cell lesions that required excision removed vs making the 1.5 hour trip back to dermatology in LaCrosse for the procedures.
