"Dr. McColgan is the kind of doctor I remember from growing up. She cares. She listens. She acts in the patient's best interest. This is an amazing physician who is a generalist in an age of specialists."
— Vitals review"I've found Dr. Yuko to be a really caring PCP which makes me feel more confident about my care. The one detractor from my perspective is that there is no in-office lab, all bloodwork is usually done via Quest which can be very hit and miss in terms of drawing blood."
