Read MoreI had the opportunity to speak with Dr. Lee Shelton (a great surgeon and emergency room physician) who was trained by Dr. Yancey before he passed. Dr. Shelton recalled that he did not see any complications when he rotated with Dr. Yancey. This speaks to the excellence of Dr. Yancey's surgical technique and his acumen. A surgical giant who is truly missed. His legacy lives on. Respectfully submitted - Mark Walker M.D.

When I started at Grady in 1985, I was sent to work at Hughes Spalding Medical Center. This is where I met and worked with Dr. Yancey. It was such a pleasure to work with him. Then I transferred to one of the neighborhood clinics, which was renamed in honor of Dr Yancey, it was renamed Asa Yancey MD Health Center. I stayed until my retirement, so you can say I started and ended my career with Dr. Asa G. YANCEY MD. REST IN PEACE.
