There are many facets to the medical care of any given individual, and it takes time to integrate all the different issues and in general I like to treat the «whole» patient. Although my goal is to excel in the management of cardiac related problems, I try during every visit to focus on not only the physical health of the patient but also on the mental and emotional well being of each individual.

I have been seeing Dr. Yee for 6 years now, and I absolutely love her. I can’t for the life of me understand the negative reviews on here that suggest she lacks compassion. Perhaps unsatisfied patients came in to the office expecting a specific answer to what ailed them, which she did not give. Perhaps they wanted a prescription that she didn’t think was necessary. They may have mistaken her matter-​of-​fact attitude for a lack of willingness to listen, when in reality it reflects her thorough knowledge of cardiovascular disease, a matter of science not up for debate.
One reviewer was upset that Dr. Yee, a cardiologist, told her her migraines and back pain could be from anything. She was asking a cardiologist for back pain and headache advice, and took exception to Dr. Yee not having one definitive answer… I don’t fault my butcher for not knowing what belt would best match my shoes.
I digress, but the point I wanted to make is that Dr. Yee is an exceptional clinician who truly wants the best for her patients. She has not only helped me control my hypertension, but also has gone above and beyond to ensure that there is no potentially serious underlying cause. She always follows best practice guidelines, and it is clear that she deeply understands her field. As a current medical student, I aspire to one day be as capable and kind a practitioner as Dr. Rupsa Yee. If you are looking for a cardiologist, I highly recommend her.

I don’t know why it seems so difficult to find a cardiologist with a heart. She ranks a zero in compassion or the willingness to listen. Basically she said, «It’s my way or the hi-​way» not allowing me to express my concerns. With a little decent bedside manner, she might have been able to convince me of her way but she was unwilling to hear my fears. I am not difficult and have had extensive experience with cardiologists and electro-​physiologists. Unfortunately my past terrific heart doctors have retired or left the area. Please don’t waste your time going to see Dr. Yee.

Dr. Yee’s office staff was fantastic. They fit me in quickly, helped me get set up with a heart monitor quickly, and were incredibly compassionate.
Dr. Yee on the other hand diagnosed me before walking in the door and didn’t listen to what I said about how my symptoms had changed. I had my records transferred over (my previous cardiologist now focuses on transplants). She walked into the room with records in hand and a resident at her side. She explained to the resident what my medical records showed and what I already knew.
I told her my new/​scary symptoms, which was the reason I was there — to see if my condition had changed/​worsened.
She had the resident listen to my heart and flipped through my records. Then she briefly looked at the EKG and sent me off for a heart monitor and an ultrasound.
I never heard another word from her. Did my condition change/​worsen? I don’t know, but I know I’m not going back to her.

I visited this office for the first time a couple months ago. Don’t go here! While the receptionists are super nice, Ruspa is a cold, careless person. She was recommended to me by my (very awesome) gynecologist when I said I was having chest pains. Because I was looking for a renewed birth control prescription but had recent chest pain and an abnormal EKG, she thought better safe than sorry. Rupsa was flippant. We did another EKG and she said ‘yeah, it’s a little abnormal but I don’t know why they sent you here. It could just be that way normally.‘
Chest pains? Migranes? Back pain? I kept running down my symptoms and she just looked at me like I was crazy. ‘You know, it could really be anything.’ Can’t believe I paid a $ 60 copay for her tell me that my symptoms could be from anything. Thanks. She let me plan a stress test but I canceled it later because I really don’t trust her opinion or methods. Would not recommend her because it doesn’t seem like she cares about your health. I went to another cardiologist who actually took the time to review my symptoms and find the issue that was causing my pain.

I did not realize that I had not yet submitted a review on Dr. Yee. A couple of years ago, my previous cardiologist had moved to the East Bay and I was referred to Dr. Yee. By coincidence, she had handled my case when I was in the ER. I felt very well cared for then and still do. Both she and her staff are very easy to work with and the care is top notch.

I’ll admit I was a little nervous about this appointment for my husband. Not because of the nature (cardiology) but because Dr. Yee looked like a hard ass when she arrived to the office the morning of our appointment. I had all these fears that she was going to rush us, not answer hubs questions, and ask us why we were even there in the first place.
Thank GOD that was not what happened. She took her time with us, answering all of our questions, some silly (hubs is a health nut), but all with serious and practical answers. She is to the point (as David G. mentioned) but in a caring and understanding way. I could tell she was really looking out for hubs and suggested the best way to accomplish being healthy. I cannot emphasize enough how we really felt valued. She encouraged him to follow up with a phone call with any new symptoms or information (from other Drs.) I can’t rave more about this Dr; I only wish we could take her (and our other Drs) with us when we move!

Had to take a relative to see Dr Yee.
If I were to describe DR Yee in one word. It would be Firecracker… and that is a good thing.
Dr. Yee tells it like it is… no subtle beating around the bush. You need to do A to get to B.
I really like her approach: She is caring, compassionate, and competent.
Some might find her approach a little too forward. I for one like it straight up. always have always will.
I actually wish more Doctors were like Dr Yee.
If you need to see a great Cardiologist Dr Yee is your man… er ah, woman!

Wow… I can’t tell you how pleasant my experience was with Dr. Rupsa Yee and her staff! If I could give them an extra star, I would.
After having a bad experience with a general practitioner (who referred me to Dr. Rupsa Yee), I was prepared to meet another callous doctor — yet I was very pleasantly surprised. Not only did the RN greet me with a smile and make me feel comfortable right away, but Dr. Rupsa Yee also seemed genuinely happy to answer any questions I had, all while willingly offering suggestions for natural remedies, before simply prescribing me medication — as most doctors are so quick to do!
Not once did I feel rushed or like she had other patients to attend to. She also made scheduling a follow-​up extremely easy by asking the receptionist to find either the earliest appointment or the latest appointment so that I didn’t have to take time off of work.
The only disappointing part — I wish she could be my general practitioner! If I could choose one Dr to see forever, it would be Dr. Rupsa Yee!
