I have been seeing Dr. Yamauchi for many years and like him a lot. But this last time I had an unpleasant surprise. Yes, people raise prices over time. But I got sclerotherapy and it was 100% more expensive than 18 months ago. He doubled the price in 18 months. Yes, there is inflation, but it's 9% and going down. Inflation is not 100%. People notice gouging and dislike it. This is the second doctor I have noticed dramatically increasing the price on a cosmetic procedure without offering any more service. I won't go back to places that use covid as an excuse to jack up their prices unreasonably.

This is my second annual visit. When you walk in every one is so personal, I was taken on time, the treatment rooms are clean, orderly and the city views are amazing! The nurse was so kind and made you feel relaxed and the Doctor is receptive to questions and gives good answers. I’m happy with the work he does and I look forward to seeing him next for my annual Body Check! Thank You

Dr Yamaguchi and Dr Summer are very experienced, knowledgeable, and professional doctors. They are great listeners, compassionate, inquisitive, elaborate, detailed, and thorough. They are very open minded and approachable. The staff and other professionals are very attentive, responsive and hospitable. Very easy scheduling and rescheduling. Short wait times in waiting room and to see the doctor. Returns calls and messages within same day or next morning. Very quick follow up calls on test results. By far, the best office, staff and medical professionals in Santa Monica.
