I have been seeing Dr Yap now for a long time now. All I could say is he is one great Dr. I have a real big eye problem and Dr Yao was able to help me make it better and put me on a med that keeps it at bay. And besides that he is a real friendly guy genuine and cares about people and he listens thanks Dr Yao
