Wayne F. Yakes's Online Review Report Card

Thank you so much Dr Yakes you are amazing you did great job for my wife and your team working with you they are awesome. And the Swedish Medical Center are great and so clean Beautiful smile and your Office it’s amazing thanks many thank to all working god bless all????

Dr. Yakes is very specialized in AVMs. Many doctors told us that the malformation will continue to grow and will never go away. Luckily we found Dr. Yakes who was always positive about it. He eliminated our daughter´s AVM in just two sessions. We are very thankful that he helped our daughter.

We thank God every day that we were able to meet this physician and have him care for our daughter and now I may need him as well

Dr. Yakes was wonderful with my family and I. I was successfully treated for extremity AVM's that were causing heart failure.

I am updating my review. I still full-heartedly recommend Dr. Yakes. He is fantastic and is a very kind doctor. So, my recommendation is still 5 stars, but I am changing my staff friendliness to 3 stars - Good. This is an average of the Front Desk and Billing still get 5 stars, but current PA's I've been working with getting only 2 stars. I am a patient who prefers to avoid pain killers. I, personally, find the new PA's more difficult to work with and less understanding.

After years of searching for help, we finally found Dr.Yakes! Our youngest son had an AVM in his right lower leg. Since about 15 months, he had been having episodes of severe pain usually followed by days to weeks of limping or dragging his leg behind him. We saw numerous specialists- none of whom could help us because of where the AVM was. At 6 yrs old he received 3 treatments a few weeks apart.He is 11 now & has had no further problems. Dr.Yakes was the miracle our family had been praying for!

This $130,000 procedure did not work what so ever. Job loss - reduced benefits and they are requiring payment with no willingness to write this off or offer charity. What's more, AML Luekemia symtoms developed within 24 hours of second treatment last summer. Near death experience within one month, but LDS Medical Center saved her life through chemotherapy and stem cell transplants. After six months of constant care, she is stable and back home with her four children and husband trying to dig out of a mountain of bills including Dr Yakes's practice and Sweedish Medical in Denver.

Draw Yajes and Yee performed 21 interventional radiological procedures from 1999-2001 to treat my gigantic (the actual medical term) vascular malformation that was actively invading my lung and spine. Dr. Yakes is the international subject-matter expert in VMs and AVMs; his method has changed and saved many folks' lives, and the center is busy with patients from all over the globe. The level of care is superb. These lesions had been mis-diagnosed for years; surgical removal often compounds the problems, especially in the brain, face, and other difficult areas. His team works closely with your own doctors to effectuate a firm diagnosis. This increasingly-not rare problem requires real skill and specialized experience; Dr. Yakes developed the method himself decades ago and has successfully taught it to doctors all over the globe. So glad he's still helping folks!

Life saver!
