I’m so grateful for Dr Yapp’s steady, compassionate approach during my dad’s final months in Wahroonga. He explained options clearly, helped with pain management, and checked in on both of us after each visit. It made a world of difference having someone who truly listens.

A genuinely comforting doctor. Dr Yapp didn’t rush us through assessments and spent time addressing my dad’s pain and anxiety. The support in management and planning has given us peace of mind here in NSW.
