Amy S Yester's Online Review Report Card

I gave birth in 2019 and Dr Yester was so awful I decided to switch clinics. Do NOT let her near you.

I never write reviews but I had to after visiting with Dr Yester. I switched to this practice because my other doctor totally dismissed a concern I had and Dr Yester took her time and listened to my concerns and explained everything and offered to do additional testing. I felt totally comfortable with her and I would recommend her to anyone!

She was so awful and condescending when I gave birth and afterwards when I had a complication. She truly should be in another field or quit medicine altogether. She doesn’t seem to have any empathy for her patients.

Never again seeing this doctor. I like the practice,, and most of the doctors and nurses here are wonderful and kind, but not Dr. Yester. She told me, in exact words, that "c-sections are used as the easy way out". As someone whose undergone multiple significant surgeries and has severe medical trauma, you have no place telling me that a major operation is a cop out delivery.

Why people say she’s patient and willing to explain everything when she is totally a snub with me? She’s so abrupt and risky. She refused to treat me because I didn’t want to do the tests she ordered. She said go seek care else where.

I was hopeful as my Pcp had recommenced her. She spoke really fast like she was trying to hurry along. She had a smile on her face but didn’t take the time to connect or show concern for me as an individual when I shared my health concerns.

Doctor Yester is awesome! Super patient and knowledgeable. I couldn't ask for a better OB, we are lucky to have her in Pittsburgh.

Dr. Amy Yester has always been very helpful and Willing to explain anything. I would highly recommend her.

Going through my first pregnancy I've never felt at ease with Dr. Yester. As a first time mom my questions were met with snarky answers. I expect a good doctor to want to explain things to patients and take time to answer questions they may have, especially when it's concerning the best options for their unborn child. She may have been through this with 1,000 different people but I have not and dont like being treated like I should know everything. That's what she should be there for. The other doctors at seasons OBGYN have been great to me so far. I wish I had a better experience with this particular one.

If you are looking for a compassionate Doctor, look elsewhere. I would recommend every other Doctor in this practice ahead of her, particularly their nurse practitioner. She was sympathetic and understanding. I have been through quite a bit in the past year and a half. I have had four miscarriages. Dr. Yester has treated me for two of them. This last one was a bit complicated and involved a chemotherapy drug because it was ectopic. Everyone has different reactions to this medication and I was in severe pain. She questioned and doubted me. She made me feel like I was being a baby. I have been through 4 miscarriages and have one child. I know what pain is. She even suggested I take Motrin which it clearly says on my printout from the ER to avoid. It can cause severe damage to your liver and kidneys. When I pointed this out to her, she was surprised. It was extremely important to monitor my blood work as my body absorbed the pregnancy. Many times during this process, I had to call the office and ask what my results were. When we discovered it was ectopic, it was because I called the office and questioned my levels. I have an app on my phone that allows me to view test results. I noticed that my beta levels were irregular after we thought I had already miscarried. Thank God I have this app because if I had not called in and questioned this, who knows what would have happened. An ectopic pregnancy can be life threatening. My blood work was drawn Friday and I followed up on Monday. That is a whole weekend something could have happened. Having been through a lot, I realize I am vulnerable and sensitive but she was completely insensitive and dismissive. Also, I found her to be incompetent. I am now seeing an Reproductive Endocrinologist who was surprised that some basic blood tests were not already performed. I had requested this after my third miscarriage and again she was dismissive. I thought it was important to inform other women of her lack of sensitivity. I also see from other reviews that I am not the only one who feels this way.
