Kong Peng Yap, MD

Wow! I can’t express how amazing Dr. Yap has been.
I was put on a general antibiotic by my gyno and I got C-​Diff.
Dr.Yap helped me through the entire process, I would call him at 9pm in excruciating pain (would leave a voice mail) and he would always call me back within the hour.
I felt that I was in good hands and learned that I could trust him. He’s empathetic and understanding. I can’t thank him enough.

I had a few tests done by this Dr and I was in pain for over 2 weeks after a standard colonoscopy. I had to go to the ER the following day because I could not move my stomach and was having extreme pain in my back, rib cage and side. The hospital did an Ultrasound and cat-​scan and said that this Dr was way to heavy with his hand and pushed up against my organs way to hard and it will take a while to heal. I have had this done 2 times prior by a different Dr and never had any pain after the procedure. I tried reaching out to the Dr for over 14 days for my biopsy results and I still have not received them. I received a call from his nurse stating to stop calling that he has a lot of surgeries scheduled and when he has time he will check on my results. (I called 4 times in approx 8 days) On top of it all he forgot to give me my prescriptions after the procedure. Do your research before you allow any Dr to perform this procedure. My insurance chose Dr Yap. I would never allow someone with his bedside manner to ever treat me again. Do not let him touch you! Stay away from this awful Dr! Dr Yap is not a good Doctor and does not care about his patients.

It’s amazingly refreshing to have a doctor who cares. I called Dr. Yap after my first GE put me on several empirical treatments and I was still suffering from gastrointestinal bleeding (I had been for 3+ months by the time I contacted Dr. Yap). When I called their office, Dr. Yap picked up himself and even called me back to confirm my insurance information. Never had a doctor do that.
So from there I decided to set up an appointment. I went into the office and got to see Dr. Yap right away. He sat there and listened to everything I had to say and gave my symptoms a careful thought before putting me on a treatment (where as my first GE just sat on his computer typing as I was describing my symptoms). I started my treatment and Dr. Yap even called me to check in with me. One of the calls, I had experienced a bad episode and left him a message at night and he called me back THAT NIGHT and spent over 10 minutes with me on the phone giving me valuable advice rather than telling me to just go in for another visit.
It’s been about a month since I started going to Dr. Yap and my issue has subsided quite substantially. I can’t recommend him enough, as he’s truly the most caring doctor I’ve ever encountered.

Dr. Yap is so fantastic! He saw my grandfather earlier this year, and was so kind and patient. He really knew what he was talking about, and has performed many many colonoscopies. His knowledge and experience made my grandfather feel at ease. He speaks Chinese too so it was a seamless experience!

I can honestly say that Dr. Yap is one of the best doctors and sweetest person you will ever meet. I’m so glad to have seen him.
Talking about caring doctors, I don’t think you can find anyone better than him.
Dr. yap is one of the only doctors I’ve met that would call you to check how you’re doing, whether it’s after a procedure or just to see how the meds are working out. He is genuinely concerned on his patients health and well-​being. I’m really glad to have seen him.
EXCEPTIONAL. If you’re looking for a physician with excellent bedside manner, clinical acumen, and genuine compassion for his patients, Dr Yap will surely not disappoint. You’d really want a doctor who has a sheer love for what he does and can make any patient feel at ease with their medical issues while being upfront about the facts. Dr Yap has YOUR best interest at heart and at the end of the day, that’s what really matters.

Dr. Yap is nice and called a couple times to explain the test result. However, their billing process is handled by an outside firm and somehow is really slow. They sent me a bill 5 months after test, and the amount is much bigger than Dr. Yap has estimated before the test. Understood this has to do with insurance, but it is a bad experience. I would prefer to be given better information before making a decision.

Dr. Yap is a truly exceptional doctor, from the moment I walked into his beautifully decorated office, he and his staff were extremely welcoming, professional, and efficient in attending to my healthcare needs. Dr. Yap GENUINELY cares about his patients and goes above and beyond to make sure that they are comfortable and well cared for. His receptionist was a delight to speak with as she scheduled an appointment for me the same day I called. Dr. Yap took his time & reviewed my health history & discussed the results of my exams. He answered all my questions and concerns. He has a calm, friendly, warm-​hearted and genuinely caring manner, and really took the time to listen to my concerns and appropriately address them.
Highly recommend to EVERYONE!!!

I am very grateful to Dr. YAP. I had an urgent medical situation and he went out of his way to fit me in his schedule, and he helped expedite my much needed procedure. I had lots of questions and concerns and he took the time to answer them all. I think he is a physician who truly cares about his patients.

We have anthem blue cross HMO for the first time. Even before we signed up with him, Dr. Yap called us several times and our PCP to help to get special authorization to see him. He understood our urgent need and was very careful to call to follow up.
His administrator/​staff, Sheryl, is also very knowledgeable and attentive, having worked previously for years at another gastroenteritis doctor for years. Sheryl called Prospect medical Group to add my husband as patient because Prospect didn’t even know though we were already signed up through their medical group though it had already been one month. She then called the next day to make sure the update was done so we can apply for special authorization. Never had a doctor and his staff been so careful and attentive.
At the exam, Dr. yap was thorough. He already reviewed my husbands lab work, having obtained it himself by calling our PCP first. He reviewed all of my husband’s medical history and even called the drug company immediately after to see if any interactions between the malaria pills he will be taking and his hepatitis medicine. And then called us right back to explain. Also Dr. yap instructed his administrator call for an overdue liver ultrasound authorization right away. Everything was taken care of before we left office which is a relief because my husband would be going to Africa in two weeks, and it took our PCP three weeks just to get authorization to se him.
Overall, we could not have found a more compassionate and careful doctor, respectful and mindful of patient’s needs. We are thoroughly impressed and grateful to have such a doctor to care for our family. We are happy to fund out he can also be a primary care physician. We are switching over!:)
