I am saddened to hear of the passing of Dr. Yabumoto. Whom I've known for more then 20yrs. A very kind and compassionate Dr.. Dr. did some surgery on my foot. Dr Yabumoto told me to check the color of my toes and if they turn blue to call him and he would get me in to be checked. My toes did turn blue I called but I didn't have a way to get to his office. It was in the late evening. Dr. Yabumoto came to my house picked me up and took me to his office to rewrap my foot and he returned me home. I never forgot that. I felt very safe with him. He was a very honorable man with a very sweet spirit. I will truly miss him.

I worked with Dennis in the operating room at Oak Park Hospital many years ago. He was a talented podiatrist and fun to work with. I'm sad to learn of his passing at such an early age. My sincerest condolences to all of his family. Sue (Fife) Lyon (Murphys, CA)
