Dr. Yamaguchi is very knowledgeable, and is an expert in her field. She shows you that she truly cares about her patients. She always asks about all of the health issues that my daughters have, not just the ones that pertain to her medical field. She wants to know how they are doing in all aspects of their lives. I believe this makes her an extraordinary doctor and person. She is truly their to help her patients and she let you know that she really cares about them. My daughters love getting to see her and talk to her. She takes her time with asking us the questions, as well as answering any questions we may have. We greatly appreciate her and her medical staff.

She is genuine and kind and really interested in my child's wellbeing overall. She doesn't act rushed and takes her time listening and teaching us about everything. The other staff is top notch as well!

Dr. Yamaguchi, she was very attentive. She answered questions. She's a good doctor. It takes her a long time for results, to respond for the lab, and the test. We have to be calling. We have to be chasing after her. Thank you.

We greatly appreciate the level of care from all members of the Children's Hospital team especially during a very hard time for our family. The level of care has been amazing. We are thankful for the positive progress with our daughters condition, which is a direct result in the level of care she has received. The programs for children are amazing such as child life and keatons club. They truly make a world of difference for the children during their treatment and inpatient stays. We thank you all.
