Dr. Marjorie Yong — Local services in Los Angeles

Through sleep therapy treatment, Dr. Yong has helped me to gain hours of my day back a focus at work, stamina during the day to connect more with my loved ones, and to achieve my athletic goals. I wake up refreshed and ready for my day, I am more productive, and I am not sleepy, groggy, irritable , or bloated in the mornings from tossing and turning. My case was mild, but still the recovery and treatment has had a significant effect.

For context, I am a competitive athlete in the sport of Olympic Weightlifting and after having only two months of treatments, I found my workouts were on another level. I am able to lift for 2-3 hours at a time 5 days / week without as much fatigue, and have set new PRs in every single lift this Summer. My soreness is much lower and my recovery time is much much faster. My coaches and teammates have been shocked by my progress and I recently earned a silver medal in a 2023 national competition.

I had been taking several naps in the week for almost my whole life. I would come home from high school and sleep from noon to 4pm then trudge off to work. I would take naps in the car on my breaks for only 15 minutes, I knew where every grassy knoll and couch in the corned of the room was in my workplace or school so I could catch a little bit more sleep. Almost every weekend I would have a workout in the morning then sleep the whole afternoon away. After sleep treatment, I couldn't believe that I'm getting almost 1/3 of my weekend back to enjoy, be productive, and live my conscious life! I really feel that I'm waking up--quite literally, from a slightly foggy existence.

Dr. Yong is so kind and she deeply connects with her patients. She believes in the work that she does, attends conferences to learn more, and is always trying to optimize and understand to meet her patients' needs. She is affirming and sweet and her encouragement is responsible for my excitement to use the CPAP machine at home--I want to make Dr. Yong proud! She walked me through every single step of the process and explained thoroughly to satisfy my millions of questions. She sent me materials, set up phone calls to clarify, and helped me understand the full process. I brought in some significant markers of achievement from my Summer to my most recent appointment and told Dr. Yong that they belong to her too! :')

When a family member connected with previously unknown relatives on 23 and me, Dr. Yong meticulously added all the details to my chart to try to understand better my situation and how it could impact treatment. I have never had a doctor of any kind take such a keen interest in every detail. Thank...

Dr. Yong saved my brain! I was a Kaiser member since I was 16 years old. I'm 36 now. When I was 20, my girlfriend said I snored really loudly at night. Consequently, I had a hard time waking up in the morning, I was groggy the whole day, and I always felt tired and sleepy. I remember visiting my doctor at Kaiser and complaining about this. Seriously, all they do at Kaiser is tell you you're fine and send you home. I had Kaiser until 33 years old and I complained about the quality of my sleep every other year. Each time, with a different doctor, I was told I was fine. You almost have to fight to have a sleep test done. Finally, around 33 years old, they gave me a sleep test kit that I brought home. After I hooked it up, I had trouble falling asleep. In fact, I didn't sleep. I had to turn it into Kaiser and they said I didn't have any sleep issues. I finally gave up and switched to PPO. But, with a family emergency, I didn't get around to seeing a doctor until several months ago.

I saw Dr. Yong and she immediately conducted a sleep study on me. They have a house across the street from her office where you'll sleep there under observation. My sleep results came back and she said my oxygen level dipped to the low 70's. I already knew what she meant by that, even though I have no clue what that actually means.

I got a CPAP and immediately saw results in myself after sleeping with it the second night. I don't feel the need to toss and turn anymore like I used to. I don't get sleepy during the day. I also lost a ton of weight because their nutrition staff member introduced me to myfitnesspal, in which I realized my calorie intake was twice what it should have been. So, I cut my diet in half and life is good. I was at the point that sleeping without a CPAP would have caused irreversible damage to my brain and heart. Dr. Yong caught it just in time. Honestly, she saved my life.

Kaiser doesn't give a damn about you. They have their own incentives to keep their costs low by preventing a referral, hence the reason why I was improperly diagnosed for all of those years. Dr. Yong won't do that to you. She'll conduct a sleep study on you without a CPAP first, and then if the results show you need a CPAP, she'll conduct another study on your with a CPAP under supervision. It's the best way to go if you want to live a normal life. I got my life back thanks...

Dr. Yong is an absolutely incredible doctor. It is so rare to find such a thorough physician. Marjorie takes her time, truly listens and cares to treat the whole person in a long-term sustainable fashion. I've been with her for over a year now specifically to resolve chronic obesity that I have struggled with most of my adult life. It has been a life changing experience. On top of working on my weight she has become my GP and either treats or refers me out for any health issues that arise. From Poison Oak to Inner ear issues, she will guide you through it all. She is extremely pro-active with whole health management and dedicated to making sure her patients lead long healthy lives feeling the best they possibly can.

I searched for years and visited multiple doctors before I found her. If you are looking for a doctor that will take your health seriously and will work with you long term, she's your gal!

I was pleasantly surprised that her office had moved from a medical building into a private residential home across the street. The parking is easy, and I feel so much more comfortable in this home like setting. The house doubles as a sleep research center in the evenings, so don't be surprised by the cameras and some of the equipment. It is used to monitor overnight patients during sleep studies.

I love the girls who run her office!! They are integral to her successful practice. I have come to know and adore them over the last year. Booking appointments, prescriptions, referrals are always a smooth easy process. Most of their communication is done by email, which I love and prefer. They are professional and kind, running a quiet, peaceful office.

With Marjorie's treatment and care I have seen remarkable success with weight loss. It has been done in a steady maintainable fashion all while regularly monitoring my blood work, bone and muscle mass, and blood pressure. It's never just about dropping pounds but about getting me to the healthiest version of myself.

Thank you, Dr. Yong and Staff!

You have truly changed my life for the better, I am so...
