Dr. Yau founded the practice with three values in mind: He wanted to enjoy his work, run a sustainable practice, and remain resilient regardless of changes in the healthcare industry. “Our purpose isn’t to be the biggest practice. Keeping true to his founding values, Dr. Yau has carefully chosen a select and compassionate team that cares for patients with honesty and courtesy. “We have a wonderful staff that we’ve taken time to recruit,” he says. “They’ve been with me from the beginning. We all truly enjoy coming to work every day.”

One patient commented, “Dr. Yau and his staff are courteous and prompt, and his bedside manner is second to none!”

Dr. Yau, Dr. Tesic and their team use a holistic approach to address patients’ vascular care needs. They take time to get to know each patient, listen to their concerns, and create a personalized plan for patients’ specific needs.

“Our vascular patients are lifelong patients,” says Dr. Yau. “When we develop a plan of care, we think of the long-term. We don’t go with most expedient option. We collaboratively choose the most appropriate option, even if requires more diligent work. Our patients keep coming back because they trust we take care of them.”
