My initial experience was good. The original doctor who treated me left and they had a "physician…read moreassistant" see me for a follow-up. The follow-up communication was not very good and I was left confused about why they were insisting on additional treatment that I had not requested. My impression was that they were trying to "milk" my insurance provider for everything they could get. I canceled a further follow-up appointment. They then sent me a registered letter that was somewhat threatening that I was endangering my health by not allowing them to treat me. I did send them a response letter in which I agreed to one additional visit so that they could review what had been done. I specified how I wished to be contacted but, after several weeks, they have not responded.

She was obviously incredibly knowledgeable, took her time with me and made sure that all of my questions and concerns were addressed and acted upon She found a couple little spots. I was not even aware of and took the appropriate measures to make sure they were nothing serious. This was my first time at this clinic and I am very pleased. My last clinic was the premier clinic on Oahu and I did not get nearly the same attention and personal care as I received here. So far I would say I highly recommend them.

Should have stopped there and gotten another Dr. because of my history. When I finally got in to see Mauro for biopsy I left with a big bandage on my nose. He said it was melanoma. I made an appointment with a MOSE specialist in Honolulu. When he took off the bandage. he was surprised to see that a huge chunk had bee taken off my nose. He did 3 MOSE procedures and got all the cancer and tried to make my nose look better By doing some minor plastic surgery, However my nose looks awful and now I am having trouble breathing. P.S. Dr Mauro charged my insurance for a MOSE which he did not do. I thought he left town but if not ...avoid him. Unethical IMO

This has happened so often it's infuriating. I once called every other day for six days, leaving 3 messages. No one ever called back, and finally I was able to get through. The receptionist acknowledged they had my messages, but never apologized for not calling back B). The office is only open a few hours per week on random days. On one occasion the first available appointment was a month from the date of my contacting them. At my second visit the doctor was "running late". One hour and forty minutes late. Unacceptable for non emergency situation and setting. Cramped waiting area with so few chairs several of us had to wait outside the office in a courtyard. C). At every visit the doctor asked why I was there? Hellloooo, the reason for scheduling was mentioned each time. Stage Four melanoma, persistent hives. Caladryl was his treatment, no blood work, no biopsy, no allergy or health history done. The doctor did a marginal exam the first time and never did another! Each visit was concluded within 10 minutes. D). Dr. Shapiro was arrogant and flippant. I ignored it the first time, but it was his MO - each and every time. Impatient and dismissive of my questions and concerns. When I inquired about a treatment protocol given my symptoms I was told he "couldn't see into the future". Conclusion: Worst experience ever with a physician.

This overall was a traumatic experience and unfortunately left me with a long lasting consequence…read more Shirnel told me we wouldn't go too dark bc we can always go darker but it's hard to go lighter. However she went dark purple and it turned out very uneven. On my top left side I have a big mark with a line extending through the middle of my lip. the color and outline is uneven. My bottom lip has a big ring around it and it is light on the inside. Shirnel assured me she could fix it. She did saline injections then without my knowing beforehand, she topped it with peach ink. This then resulted in large blisters filled with peach ink that was seeping out. I had to go to urgent care and get medication. From my current understanding, it isn't recommended for the saline to be used for ink removal on the lips and why she chose to top it with ink, I have no idea, but it was not a good choice. I contacted Shirnel and told her about my need to go to urgent care and she didn't ask if I needed any reimbursement for the visit or medication. I told her I was really unhappy with how my lips were looking and asked 2 times if I could make an appointment to speak with her in person and also wanted her to look at my lips and she straight up ghosted me. I understand mistakes happen but the thing that made me the most upset was how she choose to just ignore what she did to me. the result of this has left me so uncomfortable about how I look, spending lots of time covering it up as much as I can, and having to deal with people making comments to me about my lips. I chose to go to Shirnel bc she had good reviews. it was a horrible experience and I wish the mistake wasn't so permanent . I also wish she took responsibility for what she did to me instead of ignoring the problem at hand.
