Patient Testimonials

I've had a badly deviated septum for most of my life. For whatever reason things have been getting worse with my nose, to the point that my only way to sleep was to use a nose strip. I had been contemplating having my nose be corrected for quite some time, but with my sleep becoming more and more affected I decided the time had finally arrived for me to do something about it.

I went to see one doctor who was "in network" for me. He looked in my nose and said the right nostril was deviated and that the turbinates were enlarged in my left nostril. Being a runner I asked him if he thought my having my nose be surgically corrected would help with my running (I knew it would help my sleep, but I was wondering if a straightened nose would also allow me to gain a deeper breath while running). He basically responded that he didn't thing so. A few days later in a monthly local running magazine that I subscribe to I saw an advertisement for the Yeung Institute that alluded to the concept that a "corrected" nose would help with running. I made an appointment to see Dr. Yeung. Upon his diagnosing me he concurred with the observations of the previous doctor that I had seen, but he also noted that my left nostril was also deviated. The deviation was further back and harder to see. This explained why my left nostril was so much more obstructed. It wasn't just an issue with enlarged turbinates. And so I scheduled surgery.

A few notes regarding surgery and post-op care . . . first, there is a discount for paying for part of your surgery up front. Something I appreciated. Second, Dr. Yeung's pre-op and especially his post-op directions for care need to be followed to the letter. It might seem like much work with the steamings, spraying, meds, etc., but they really will make your nose heal faster. Dr. Yeung is a very thorough doctor who has an eye for attention to detail. His specific post-op instructions are really designed to help aid in healing.

Having said all that, I am a bit over three months post-op now and I can truly say that I am so glad that I had the surgery done, and that Dr. Yeung was the one who performed the surgery. The quality of sleep I get at night is truly amazing. And I no longer own any nose strips. As for running, being able to catch a full and deep breath while running is a very calming and enjoyable sensation.

In short, if you are contemplating nasal surgery to improve your breathing, Dr. Yeung is the surgeon you need to see.

P.S. . . . I'd be remiss to not acknowledge the staff that assists Dr. Yeung at the institute! All those ladies are extremely patient, professional, and friendly!!!

I had excruciating pain from swollen lymph nodes about a month ago. I went to the urgent care and was given medications that did not work. I was referred to Dr Yeung and came in. He provided me with a proper diagnosis as well as medications and some supplemental things to follow at home. The medications worked immediately and the swelling had gone down. I went back for a follow-up and everything was fine. Dr Yeung is a great doctor and his staff is wonderful. I had a great experience and I am happy that I chose Yeung Institute!

Every time I would go to sleep, one nostril would get stuffed up, making it very difficult to sleep. Also in the morning, I would wake up with the same thing. Had this problem for over 15 years. Dr. Yeung knew exactly what was wrong, and fixed the issue. Heads up, the first 2 days after surgery are terrible! Be prepared! All is well now. Also, follow his instructions afterwards for a speedy recovery.

Dr. Yueng & his team are legit.

I had a chronic runny nose & fatigue problems (naps every evening after work, just tired).

The team did a septoplasty surgery and some other stuff (septoplasty + + as far as I’m concerned).

I’m 3 weeks post surgery and feeling.................B O O S T E D..............and breathing as if I have two horse nostrils.

If you think something is up, or just want to upgrayedd your nose schedule an appointment.

10/10 , 100/100, 5 stars

After years of chronic sinusitis and a botched sinus surgery I found Dr. Yeung. He was able to show me the what was creating the problems, and offered rapid resolution. Dr Yeung's background and skills are second to none in my opinion, as I had no swelling or pain after surgery. His staff is top notch and greatly appreciated.

I've had chronic sinititus for 8 years , had a "ballon sinuplasty" 3 years ago and it worked for a very short amount of time. I finally got sick of the amoxicillin and over the counter drugs not working and going to consultations that seemed like they didn't know what they were doing. Found Dr. Yeung on Zocdoc and I'm so glad I made the decision to go with him. His staff is extremely professional , Dr. Yeung sat with me and told me I had a deviated septum and that he checked my ct scan and the other ent didn't do a good job not only did he not do a good job but he couldn't even see the "balloons" that were done for my previous sinuplasty and I appreciate his honesty. I had my surgery and within the week I had never breathed better in my life I'm so glad I put my trust in Dr. Yeung he is simply amazing. Don't second guess just schedule a consultation , you won't be disappointed.

Dr. Yeong is very skilled in his field. His expertise and committed to doing the best he can is reflected in patient's faces!

His staff does have a turn over rate, but his staff was not the reason I chose to go to him. If the girls fail to do their job properly or show intuitive to learning, then they need to be let go. Having worked in Maxi-facial/cranial offices it takes a while to get the right assistants/receptionists to make a united team.

This is the place to go!!!

The best Doctor in the Houston area, @Doctor Yeung, and his staff @Nicole and Tammy, Absolutely amazing. Couldn't have asked for more, they are all so nice and professional.
Came in to see doctor Yeung because i heard he was great, turns out he is better then expected. I can now finally breath again!

Dr yueng is great !! I feel 100% better after the complete removal of a severe case of nasal polyps . I'm only two weeks out of surgery an my sense smell is starting to return !????thx doc

I had an amazing experience with the Yeung Institute. The staff and surgery were effective and painless! I couldn't recommend them more, if you need sinus surgery, this is the place to go.
