Kaiyun Yang, M.D., is a fellowship-trained tumor, skull base and cerebrovascular surgeon passionate about treating neurosurgical disorders. Early on, Dr. Yang was drawn to neurology and neurosurgery, showing an interest in the intricate anatomy, pathology and complexity of the central nervous system. Neurosciences became more personal after she lost her grandparents to stroke and Parkinson’s disease.
Eager to understand more about how the brain works, Dr. Yang studied neurosciences at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada. Following that, she trained at McMaster University, where she accumulated valuable experience with general neurosurgery and neuro-trauma, developing a strong interest in treating brain tumors and vascular lesions. She subsequently pursued prestigious subspecialty fellowships in neurooncology, skull base, and cerebrovascular neurosurgery in Toronto and New York.
Dr. Yang’s family history allows her to feel a special empathy toward her patients and their families and gives her an acute understanding of how crucial it is to preserve neurological function and quality of life. She is excited to return to the West Coast and feels both grateful and privileged to serve the Central Valley community and make a difference in her patients’ lives.
