Yalanda is amazing. She takes the time to listen and actively explore options to make the best plan of treatment for her patients. She was able to recommend genetic testing to optimize medical therapy for me. I am feeling so much better, and my outlook is looking brighter and brighter every day! She is compassionate, down to earth, and always keeping up to date with the latest information to take the best care of people. I highly recommend speaking to her if you are not %110 satisfied with your current provider!

Yalanda Holmes is a fantastic provider, she makes me feel comfortable, and is always lending a helping hand. I would highly recommend her to my friends and family members. She is an asset to Lifestance Health. I have had other providers in the past who did not make me feel like they were doing such a great job, or that they had any care or compassion for me as a patient. Thanks again
