I visited the clinic on Friday for congestion, sore throat, and cough. I was seen by Dr Yen right away. He ordered a Covid and flu test. He then examined me and asked questions. The exam was thorough. He prescribed some medication and gave me instructions on using it. Dr Yen and the nurses were all excellent. I felt well respected and well cared for. The entire staff were polite and professional. I’m very impressed with the Immediate Care Cinic. Thank you UCLA!

I should I say I am a physician myself and this provider was incredible. He was able to diagnose and treat me in a record amount of time — including if antibiotics, fluids and a cat scan, saving me a trip to the ED for which I am so grateful. He was compassionate and understanding. Honestly just phenomenal care!

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Gorge Yen for over 10 years, and I truly can’t imagine trusting my health to anyone else. From the very beginning, he has made me feel completely comfortable, respected, and heard at every visit. His calm, reassuring demeanor and genuine care make even the most stressful appointments feel manageable. Dr. Yen takes the time to listen, explains things clearly, and always involves me in decisions about my care. He never rushes through appointments and always makes sure all my concerns are addressed. Over the years, he’s guided me through everything from routine checkups to more complex health issues with incredible professionalism and compassion. It’s rare to find a physician who combines medical expertise with such a personal touch. Dr. Yen truly sets the standard for what a great doctor should be. I’m incredibly grateful for the decade of care I’ve received and look forward to many more years under his guidance. Highly, highly recommended!
