About Dr. Yardley

Philosophy of care

I sincerely value getting to know my patients and building a relationship based on mutual respect and trust. I want to become a partner as we work together to maintain your health. As a caregiver, I try to see the "whole person" and not just symptoms or medical diagnosis. I consider all aspects of your health and provide you and your family the best care possible.

Why I entered medicine

I was always interested in the human body and how it worked. I am extroverted and enjoy interacting with people and helping others, thus a call to practice medicine came naturally. I chose family medicine because I really enjoy taking care of entire families; seeing children, parents and grandparents. I love the variety of doing well visits, diabetes and hypertension management, mental health care, and procedures such as joint injections and IUDs – often all in one day!

Community involvement

I am new to both the Lehigh Valley and Pennsylvania, so I look forward to getting involved in the community here. Most of my previous community involvement was through church and ministry related activities. I am looking forward to learning about opportunities in the area and getting my spouse and three children involved as well.

Personal interests

I enjoy family time, cooking, reading, hiking, wine-tasting and horseback riding.

Ratings and Reviews

About Our Ratings and Reviews

About our Survey

Our physicians and advanced practice clinicians (CRNPs and PA-Cs) are among the nation's best. That's why we show you patient satisfaction ratings and comments so you can read about and get to know our providers through the eyes of their patients.

To ensure our ratings and comments come only from verified patients, we work with NRC Health, a third-party organization. NRC Health sends patient satisfaction surveys on LVPG's behalf following an office visit or procedure. They ask patients about their impression of the health care provider and the doctor's or advanced practice clinician's communication skills.

What is included in the star rating?

Star ratings are based on a scale of 1-5 stars, 5 being the best. The rating includes responses to these provider-related questions:

  1. Physician Communication Questions
    1. Did this provider give you enough information about your health and treatment?
    2. Did this provider give you easy to understand information about your health questions and concerns?
    3. Did this provider listen carefully to you?
    4. Did this provider seem to know your medical history?
    5. Did you trust this provider with your care?
  2. Overall Provider Rating Question
    1. Using any number from 0 to 10, where 0 is the worst provider possible and 10 is the best provider possible, what number would you use to rate this provider?

Why don't all doctors or advanced practice clinicians have a rating?

In order to have enough data to measure and compare, a health care provider must have at least 30 completed patient satisfaction surveys. Surveys are included for a period of 12 months from submission.
