Urgent Care: Have Symptoms Now?
Dr. Yang can evaluate you with various blood, urine, and imaging tests like X-ray, ultrasound, CT, and MRI scans to find out which medical condition you may have and how severe the condition is. Dr. Yang will give you the appropriate medical services and treatment. In some cases, Dr. Yang will refer you to a specialist like a surgeon or another medical specialist to help you further.
Primary Care & Internal Medicine: Already Diagnosed?
If you have a chronic condition, Dr. Yang can help you manage all of your current medical conditions. When you have more than one condition or take multiple medications, managing your health can be a very challenging task. However, Dr. Yang can help you simplify your medications, understand the disease process and treatment of your condition, and manage or even eliminate some of your medical and mental health conditions. See "Medical Conditions".
Preventive Medicine: No Symptoms?
Many people say, “I only see the doctor when I am sick,” but Dr. Yang believes that in many cases, the best time to see the doctor is when you are feeling healthy or have no symptoms. Dr. Yang has implemented one of the most effective and efficient approach to preventive medicine, called “Three Steps For Your Health Program."

Three Steps for Your Health Program
A Preventive Healthcare Program by Dr. Sung S. Yang
Dr. Yang’s Three steps to Your Health program was designed to be customized to fit your individual health needs. Many people don’t realize that they might be asymptomatic and that testing for certain medical conditions may be recommended. Recommendations are based on things such as your age, gender, and medical and family history; Dr. Yang’s consultation will help determine the best course of action to take control of your health.
There are important screening tests that can detect certain diseases at early stages, which can then be treated more effectively. We will help guide you through a series of physical exams, lab tests, imaging, and other procedures as needed.
Step 1 :
History and physical exams are the most basic and the first step to start this process. Dr. Yang will ask you questions about your allergies, medications, medical and surgical history, social habits, and family history to assess your risk for certain diseases. Then, he will examine you to focus on any vital organs like skin, heart, lungs, nerves, etc. that may have this risk.
Step 2 :
Blood and urine tests are the next steps to evaluate you for diabetes, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, kidney, thyroid, and liver disorders, and certain types of cancers.
Step 3 :
Mammogram, DEXA (X-ray imaging for osteoporosis), and Pap smear are the special imaging exams for women. Prostate ultrasound is the special exam for the prostate in men. Also, if indicated, you will be referred to specialist for a colonoscopy, which is a procedure that evaluates the colon and rectum for any signs of colon cancer. Vaccines for influenza (flu), pneumonia, hepatitis B, tetanus, varicella (chicken pox), shingles, and others can be administered to reduce your risk of developing these diseases and prevent complications.
