I've been his patient for over a decade, making him by far the longest medical relationship I've had. I've always said that if life ever took either of us away from beautiful Hawai'i, he'd be the doctor I'd miss the most. The level of care he provides is extraordinary, and it was evident from my very first visit. His genuine concern and dedication to his patients are truly one-of-a-kind. As someone with a dental phobia and a history of medical trauma, I've always dreaded dental appointments. But Dr. Hayashi has completely changed that for me and each encounter leaves me feeling grateful to have him on my healthcare team. His commitment to patient well-being and his accountability in fostering a better community is exceptional. Over the years, he's been a part of some major changes in my life, and I feel a special kinship with him. We've made incredible progress in my dental journey, and I'm proud of the place we've gotten to together. I'd also like to recognize the amazing front office team--Kerrie, Abi , and the other staff member (whose name I didn't catch). They play such an essential role in keeping everything running smoothly, and I'm always thankful for their friendly and efficient service. Dental assistant Ashlee deserves special mention as well. Her kindness and lively personality make the appointment feel so much more pleasant. Every office needs someone like Ashlee! Although I haven't met the other dentists at the office yet, I'm confident they're excellent.

I like this place, and expect to be coming here for a long time.

Most of all, I love how it is a family environment! Dr Russell Kim and his family give so much to our community, volunteer their time at church, and are just the nicest family you'll ever meet!

This was my first appointment with AA Windward Dental Group/Dr. Hilari Kawakami-Wong. As usual with…read morefirst visits you are faced with the unknown. But I was immediately at ease with the friendliness and professionalism of the staff and noticed the 'high tech' XRAY process and then some thereafter! As Dr. Hilari worked on my teeth, I was even more at ease as she skillfully proceeded with the processes I came in for. Above this, she first pointed out an area at the base of a tooth where a tiny filling was missing and needed to be replaced. When looking at it with the mirror in hand, that is exactly where I previously questioned about it and let's just leave it at obviously nothing was done. I knew at this point in time she is an awesome dentist! And, imagine how great I felt having something fixed now that I knew previously was an issue for me! There's more! She then pointed out on a front tooth she will fill another tiny area. WHAT? Another situation I was aware of and an issue for me but again, let's just leave it at that. I then told her I could previously feel it with my tongue. There's so much we can feel and detect on our teeth with our tongues; I can. We then had a chat and a good laugh on how common it is for patients to literally point with their tongue at a spot they feel on a tooth and say it's right here! So true! I've done it before. The method of both these 'fixes' was skillful applied coupled with technology of equipment and process which was quite a pleasant experience. Did I just say having dental work was a pleasant experience? Overall it was such a great visit and I am looking forward to my next appointment. It's already booked! Thank you Dr. Hilari Kawakami-Wong and AA Windward Dental Group!

She kept assuring me that they would be in touch in a couple of days, but I never received a phone call from them.

First call - need to get referring doctor to send information to this office…read moreSecond call - they got the information from the referring doctor and made an appointment for my son. Third call - I got to the office an hour before the appointment, so I called to see if it was okay to come in early. They told us no apt by name or no referring doctor information. Really? I thought I was going crazy so I called the referring doctor. They confirmed that they had sent the information to the office. Fourth call on the day of the apt - they said we could come in at 4pm but the apt was for 3pm. I went to the office anyway because they told me to. After analyzing what happened, I have concluded that the staff made a mess of scheduling an apt, but no apology whatsoever. If you are doing an apt for a patient, please log it into your system while you are doing it. I don't see you in the system on the day of the apt is not acceptable. Incompetent staff. They wanted a referral so I sent it to the email address they gave me. First time "Oahu" was misspelled. Second time "surgery" was missing a "y". They called the referring doctor without asking me to verify the email address they gave me to send. I just resent the email the third time and it went through. The staff can't spell and can't do their jobs properly. Sigh. I hope the oral surgeon is not like the staff I dealt with. Overall, I am not impressed with this office at all. I am so glad I went through this before the actual oral surgery for my son. I firmly believe that things happen for a reason. The doctor asked me to delete the review bc it will deteimentally affect the business. If I were the business owner, I would be grateful to get good and bad feedback and improve accordingly based on the feedback. Why couldn't this be addressed when he was talking to me instead of asking me to remove the review? Finally, the office manager said she would check with the insurance company and send me an updated sheet with the cost the next day. It has been two weeks and nothing has been sent to us. I didn't expect too much because I knew this would be the result.

"I love going to the dentist" is not a refrain you often hear from a sane person! But Dr. Kim, and…read morehis amazing staff, have made this unlikely scenario my reality; I actually LOVE going to Dr. Kim's dental office! Let's start with the doctor. Dr. Kim is a truly gifted dental professional and I feel incredibly fortunate to have found him shortly after moving to Hawaii. He is smart, an engaged and active listener, and has very honed and precise technical skills. He really takes the time to get to know you as a person, not just a patient, and he uses this time to address whatever concerns or apprehensions you might have. In the past, I've had many problems with traditional dental preparations and chemicals. His methods and materials are so biocompatible that I don't even bother to ask about them anymore; I just know what he is using is going to be fine. A great doctor, however, is only as good as his support staff--thankfully Dr. Kim's staff is the best! From the moment you enter the door, the staff looks after you like you are a dear friend in their home. Filled with Aloha, warmth, and professionalism, I can't imagine a nicer group of human beings assembled in one location! Abby, Soledad, Jee, Ashley, Heidi, and Cheryl are all worthy of their own glowing testimonials, but honestly you should just go meet them and you will understand why I am so enthusiastic about this crew! So stop procrastinating and make an appointment with Dr. Kim and his lovely staff! Who knows--you might even end up loving the dentist's office too!

Dr. Moon asked me if I was happy with the appearance of my teeth, which I don't EVER remember being asked by a dentist. When I told him about my cosmetic concerns, he worked out a plan to give me a movie-star smile. He also had a great chair-side manner, and great hair! I'm actually excited to go back and see them again!

Everyone in the waiting room was privy to our conversation, there was no confidentiality. She brought up sensitive personal information on the screen (which was good sized), asked me to verify the information. I wasn't expecting this so of course, could not find my reading glasses to review this on line document. I just said it was fine so I could get out of the queue. I miss seeing the check in staff that is so friendly and personally greats me and makes me feel welcomed. This experience was impersonal and I felt that my personal information was at risk for being compromised. If this is the new "normal" for HFDC I may consider changing to a PPO dental plan so I can choose to go where I am welcomed by a real person.
