Swedish Pain Services - Issaquah - Pain Management in Issaquah, Washington

“Dr Yu was about the worst. And the clinic manager is impossible to get a hold of, never returning phonw calls. When you do finally get ahold of her she doesn't keep to her word. As a CRPS patient I should be able to trust and communicate with my doctors and that is not the case with this office staff. After years of trying to be heard I mentioned going else where and I was immediately discharged with no back up plan for my chronic pain management. You would think people in this field of work would have a little more compassion and imo this office is just there to make their money and go home. They do not care about what's going on with their patients at all.”

“"Dr" Yu is the WORST doctor I have ever seen in my life. He is rude, arrogant, and has the worst bed side manners. At one visit he said that's the medicine your taking and don't talk to me about it again. I couldn't believe it. He literally could care less about his patients. He also has the personality of a rock. STAY AWAY AT ALL COST. I will be filing a formal complaint at the hospital he works at.”

“After 40 years of lower lumbar surgery and the chronic pain associated with scoliosis surgery I was referred to Dr Yu. For pain management. The visit was like any other and he indicated that I would require and injection in my lower spin to help ease the multiple compound fractures and bones spurs I acquired over the years. He said I'd need an MRI /CT Scan to see if my spine is even supported from the broken hardware. A few days later I called to make those appointments come to find out he never put the order in for the spinal injection or the MRI /CT Scan. How does this happen? Seriously all my specialist are at Swedish and this is the first I have questions about. SMH”

“Dr Yu should not be in pain management. he is rude and can't wait to be done with your appointment. I just recently asked him to take me off of the fentynal patch and try something else. So he puts me on. 5 mg of oxycodone 4 times a day. It's nowhere near the pain relief I used to get and need. But he doesn't care. He doesn't want to listen to you . He actually told me that the reason he lowered the amount was because I was recently diagnosed with fibermyalgia and that pain medications don't work for that. Is this guy a complete sumbass??? Does he forget that I've been seeing him for 6 years now for lower back pain and we have discussed a spine stimulator. And he forgets about my neck and shoulder pain and the fact that I need another siak removed at some point. So both of these are pre-oexisting issues and have nothing to do with fibermyalgia he doesn't lay in bed most days and stare at the wall crying ,..............,,”
