I couldn't have been more impressed with Dr. Yarbrough, his staff and the whole facility in Cumming that I recently visited as a first time patient. I felt at ease right away and was impressed with the time Dr. Yarbrough took to talk with me about the condition of my knee and the options he would recommend for treatment going forward. I feel so fortunate that my friend so highly recommended him!

My appointment with Dr. Yarbrough was the most positive experience I've had in our medical community. There was no wait time at check-in, and no wait time to see the Dr. Yarbrough. Then he took his time to evaluate my situation and prescribe an effective plan to discover my source of pain. I am grateful to Dr. Yarbrough, his front office staff, and his medical support staff.
