Caroline Yang, MD
She dedicates her time to seeing only youth and empathizing with patients and their families. She believes in listening to and advocating for the needs of her patients as well as empowering families to take on a collaborative approach to wellness. She values holistic well-being by taking cultural, social, and spiritual factors into account as well as complementary and alternative options. Her treatment approach is to comprehensively evaluate patients to ensure accurate diagnoses, develop a supportive patient-doctor relationship, use evidence-based therapy, and prescribe medication only if indicated at the lowest dose and for the shortest duration needed.
As a child of immigrant parents, she has special interests in inter-generational issues, along with self-esteem, emotional sensitivity, and dysregulation. She is also interested in social justice, education, and environmental sustainability. In her free time, she enjoys dancing, wildlife, and any opportunities for creativity.
