Dr. Preston George Smith is a Board Certified Vascular & Interventional Radiologist. Following his graduation from the University of Texas Medical School in the Texas Medical Center in Houston, he went into a residency program with the sole purpose of obtaining the highest level of endovascular surgical and interventional radiology training, knowing that minimally invasive therapy was the future of medicine. After spending five years completing his residency at Rush University Medical Center in Chicago, he entered the prestigious vascular and interventional radiology fellowship at the Medical College of Wisconsin. There, he developed and acquired state of the art minimally invasive techniques to treat peripheral vascular disease, cancer, men’s and women’s health conditions, among other disorders.
Dr. Smith’s career has been unique among radiologists. He dedicates 100% of his time to direct patient care through medical and minimally invasive procedures instead of reading films.
“I can’t thank Dr Smith enough. This is my second procedure. For 7 months after my last procedure I have lived pain free and totally regained my mobility! I highly recommend this procedure!”

Dr. Caroline Moss is an expert physician who has experience and training from centers across the United States. She specializes in breast and women’s radiology. She has been practicing breast imaging since 1991 and specializes in mammography, ultrasonography and both ultrasound guided and stereotactic biopsies. Dr. Moss is also trained in 3D Breast Tomosynthesis, the newest breast imaging technology. She especially enjoys the patient contact at SonoBreasts, since many areas of radiology don’t offer patient interaction. Prior to coming to SonoBreasts, she worked in offices that cared for women in underserved populations and still does so a few times a week. She is excited to be part of our expanding breast center and we are happy to have her as a member of SonoBreasts where she counsels patients on mammogram and ultrasound findings as well as helps provide pinpoint accuracy to allow for cancer removal and diagnosis.
Dr. Moss is a native Californian. She trained in radiology at Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit and UCLA. She completed her CT/US/MRI fellowship at Cedars-Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles, and also has special training in nuclear medicine.

Dr. Yashar is a fellowship-trained Board-Certified Neurosurgeon, specializing in outpatient spine surgery as well as cranial and endovascular procedures. He has performed countless spine operations, including those involving challenging degenerative spinal conditions, spine tumors, and complex spinal trauma.
Dr. Yashar treats every patient as a whole patient, rather than only focusing on their symptoms or condition alone. Dr. Yashar is thorough with each and every patient as he believes each patient is the center of their care team–he discusses their conditions with them and reviews their images together, inviting them to participate in their health care decision.
>Dr. Yashar believes in treating patients first with conservative, nonsurgical therapies first, as a majority of patients do not require surgical intervention. Should surgery become necessary, he offers the safest, most effective, and least invasive approach. Dr. Yashar is passionate about minimally-invasive spine surgery and motion preservation (Artificial Disc Replacement surgery, Minimally-Invasive Lumbar laminectomy surgery) as these allow patients the opportunity to return to their level of performance expeditiously. He provides personalized attention to each and every patient and welcomes questions and discussion about each of the treatment options.
Education/Training:
B.S. in Cybernetics with Departmental Honors, UCLA - Summa cum laude
MD, Feinberg School of Medicine of Northwestern University
Residency in Neurological Surgery, LAC+USC / Keck School of Medicine
Fellowship in Endovascular Neurosurgery, University at Buffalo (UBNS)
Certifications:
Board-Certified by the American Board of Neurological Surgery (ABNS)
Multiple publications and abstracts in Peer-Reviewed medical journals and conferences

David T. Jacobs, MD, DABR, DABVLM, has devoted his medical career to treating venous disease. Based in Rockville Centre, New York, this fellowship-trained, board-certified vein and vascular specialist personally handles all cases at his practice South Shore Vein and Aesthetic Medicine – the only dedicated vein practice on the south shore of Nassau County.
Dr. David T. Jacobs holds dual board certifications in radiology and phlebology (vein medicine), a certification held by fewer than 900 physicians in the United States.
A born-and-raised New Yorker, Dr. David T. Jacobs attended medical school at the New York University School of Medicine.
Before opening his own practice, Dr. Jacobs completed a residency and fellowship in diagnostic and interventional radiology at SUNY Downstate/Kings County Hospital Center in Brooklyn. He acted as Chief Resident in Interventional Radiology, and completed an additional fellowship specifically focused on vascular malformations at the Medical College of Wisconsin, training with world experts in the field.
Dr. David T. Jacobs has been published in numerous peer-reviewed journal articles and is the author of a chapter on vascular malformations in a newly published textbook – Interventional Radiology: Fundamentals of Clinical Practice. He is a member of the American Vein and Lymphatic Society (formerly the American Board of Venous and Lymphatic Medicine), the American College of Radiology, the American Board of Radiology, the American Medical Association, and Radiological Society of North America.
Richard M. Young, MD, is a highly trained neurosurgeon with the team at Inland Neurosurgery Institute (INI) in Pomona and Arcadia, California.
Dr. Young was born in Taiwan and came to the United States at an early age. His grandmother always predicted that he would be a doctor. Since the age of 3, he would hold her head when she had a migraine and would say, “When I get older, I will take care of you.”
Excelling in science and math, he went to college as an electrical engineering major at UC San Diego. However, his calling into medicine resulted in him graduating cum laude in biochemistry and cell biology. He continued his journey into medical school at New York Medical College in Valhalla, New York, where he discovered his passion for neurosurgery.
This passion derived from a pivotal case during medical school, where a patient was in a coma from a ruptured brain aneurysm. That same patient recovered weeks later from the brain bleed and surgery. “To have the ability to save a person’s life…that’s what I want to do.”
He completed his neurosurgical training at The George Washington University (GWU) in Washington, DC. During his training, he also spent a year as a research fellow at the National Institute of Health (NIH) – NINDS – Medical Division. After completing his residency at GWU, he came back to the west coast to UCLA for a two-year neurointerventional/neuroendovascular surgery CAST certified fellowship.
Not only has he written many articles, book chapters, poster presentations, and a journal cover for JNS-Spine, but he was also awarded the Bannister Award both for the fastest treatment time of removing a blood clot in the brain during his fellowship at UCLA.
“Everyone knows how important the brain is, and if damage occurs to the brain, it can be devastating to that person and their family. To me, I do not see a patient but rather another human being that I am trying to help get better, like my grandmother. The reason I joined the group of neurosurgeons at Inland Neurosurgery Institute is that my colleagues share the same vision for helping people.”
During his free time, Dr. Young enjoys spending time with his family, cooking, running, and swimming.
