Dr. Yafeh is great!  She is very knowledgeable and genuinely cares about her patients.  Sometimes she is a little late but that is because she is constantly going back and forth between Long Beach Memorial and her office to help as many people as possible.  She has a very big heart.  Her office staff can be very short and rude.  A lot of times the T.V. in the waiting room is at a ridiculously high volume.  Dr. Yafeh is worth putting up with the office staff.  Just be ready to deal with them.
