He ordered an Xray (totally useless) & proceeded to tell me i couldn't possibly be feeling any pain because they hadn't moved. Then on 3/2022 I had a scan WITH contrast as pre surgery prep for TAVR. That scan discovered a renal mass. 5/26/2022 I had biopsy & cryoablation done on 2.1 mass. Had he LISTENED to me, he SHOULD HAVE ordered a CT Scan with contrast & my kidney cancer would have been discovered more than a year earlier!! He was rude & dismissive & I immediately complained to my referring GP after my visit. I will have follow up in 3 months & hopeful. But, I'm still FURIOUS at his indifference to my concern... do not recommend him, EVER!!

I had an appointment with a female urologist. Not too exciting right? Well I was looking forward…read moreto getting answers for an ongoing "female problem" so I was looking forward to it. The only downside is waiting for over 6 months as she's popular and very busy and having to talk to her receptionist Deena to make the appointment, she's not exactly friendly. Another patient whispered to me she had a problem with Deena's customer service and I have to agree. They are located in the Kuakini Physician's Tower, part of a complex of 3 buildings including a hospital. There is a paid parking garage and they do validate but you'll still pay out-of-pocket. What's most important to know is Dr. Fukuda is well worth the wait. She showed me all the notes she had on my "problem" and asked lots of questions, really taking her time with me. This is not always the case with specialists. Then she took me into the next room and performed a procedure that instantly got to the heart of the problem and provided relief after months of concern on my part. She is caring, concerned and knowledgeable, all important when dealing with serious health concerns. I got an instant answer and what a relief! I highly recommend her.

Also, the charges were very reasonable, so there were no nasty surprises when the bill came. In conclusion, Dr. Fukuda is a shining example of what the medical profession should be.

If you're living with hip pain and wondering whether surgery is worth it, I can honestly say I wish…read moreI had done it sooner. Dr. Paul Morton performed my anterior hip replacement, and the entire experience exceeded my expectations. From the very beginning, he and his team were professional, reassuring, and incredibly skilled. My recovery has been remarkable. I went home the same day, was off my walker within a day and a half, off my cane after just five days, and was walking up and down stairs normally with both legs only 10 days after surgery--the first time I'd been able to do that in seven months. I know everyone's recovery is different, but my experience speaks volumes about the quality of Dr. Morton's work. The pain that had been limiting my life is gone, and I finally feel like I'm getting my life back. Looking back, my only regret is waiting so long to have the surgery. If you're dealing with ongoing hip pain, I highly recommend meeting with Dr. Morton. He gave me my mobility--and my quality of life--back, and I couldn't be more grateful.

I am posting this review to warn patients about billing and refund issues with Dr. Paul Morton's…read moreoffice, not the medical care. In November 2025, I prepaid several thousand dollars for PRP injections, but after surgery the plan changed and the doctor agreed a refund was owed for injections not received. This was never disputed. Despite that, it took about six months of repeated calls, emails, and office visits to receive the refund. I was told multiple times that the refund had been processed or mailed when it had not. I am sharing this so patients can be aware of the refund process before paying large amounts upfront. Although the Dr. blamed a bad billing company, the correspondence I had was always with his office staff who were communicating with him.

My 300th review is a meaningful one, & I felt that Dr. Thomas Tasaki, as my nephrologist (kidney…read moredoctor), warrants a review of his passion & desire in helping his patients w/ chronic kidney disease. What is important about this review is that because of Dr. Tasaki, I am currently on active status for a kidney transplant at Queen's Medical Center since 7/8/20 w/ an approximate 3-year wait from that date for a deceased donor kidney or sooner if there is a living donor. Dr. Tasaki graduated from the University of Michigan Medical School in 1978 & did his residency at UCLA Medical School. He is well renown as a kidney specialist, respected by his peers, & is a consultant to many local hospitals. When I had researched years ago in vetting various nephrologists to be my choice doctor, I was impressed by his credentials at that time, & thus, was my choice; I have had no regrets, as he has undoubtedly lived up to it! He is a most compassionate doctor & always giving freely of his time to his patients, as he welcomes phone calls from them any time of the day of the week. During appointments, he is very thorough in explaining line by line in detail of your lab report & answers your questions fully until you understand, without any time limitation. Likewise, he'll explain in laymen's terms your kidney issue & options available. With my slowly declining kidney function several years ago, Dr. Tasaki suggested that I look into kidney transplantation, as I would be a good candidate. I foolishly poo-pooed that suggestion until he brought it up again in 2020. He wanted me to attend a free informational kidney class, which I graciously obliged. This 6-week class (each class was 3 hours), called Aloha Kidney, was taught by a retired nephrologist, Dr. Ramona Wong. It was the best thing I did, as I learned so much about the importance of our kidneys, how they function, what the lab tests meant, diet choices, & options available. This class is highly recommended for those with chronic kidney disease or anyone who has an interest in it, whether you are at-risk, caring for one who has kidney disease, or just wants to learn more. After the class ended, the ball started rolling. My eagerness resulted in long & many discussions with Dr. Tasaki. My options would be: 1) long-term dialysis, which only treats the problem & involves lifestyle changes to diet & time restrictions; 2) not do anything, which would ultimately result in death due to organ failure; & 3) getting a kidney transplant, which would allow my life to revert back to normal. My choice was kidney transplantation, so I completed the detailed application & gave it to Dr. Tasaki to include his comments, who then referred it to the Queen's Transplant Center (QTC). During the next three months, the QTC instructed me to take a variety of medical tests to determine whether I was a viable candidate: dental; chest x-ray; pap smear; mammogram; heart tests; colon cancer screening; TB test; blood tests; & evaluations by a transplant surgeon, transplant nephrologist, & multi-disciplinary team (social worker, pharmacist, dietician, financial coordinator). Having passed these tests, I was then approved to be on the waitlist. Based on my blood type, I was told I had a 3-year wait for a deceased kidney & would be actively monitored to ensure that I would be able to withstand the surgery. What followed afterwards was my ongoing research of the transplant process, as I had so many questions that needed answers, & in fact, am still learning. While my kidneys are functioning at 9% (under 15% qualifies you to be on the waitlist), I am fortunate that I am not yet on dialysis (5% will require dialysis). A living kidney donor is preferable over a deceased kidney, as it lasts longer; & the donor need not be the same blood type match, as it is considered a "paired exchange," where the donor's kidney may go to another recipient, & I would move up the waitlist to receive an available kidney from another donor. A living donor would continue to have a long, normal, & healthy life w/ one kidney; & all donor costs are covered by the recipient's insurance or the QTC. Yes, there is so much more info that most people don't know about. Dialysis would restrict my present lifestyle; whereas, a new kidney will give me a longer lease of my active lifestyle. There are so many things that I want to do: spend time with our kids/grandkids in Maui & Toronto, traveling to appreciate differing cultures, & simply enjoy the blessings that our Lord gives us daily in experiencing joy in whatever we do. I would love to teach others who are in a similar situation as I am. I thank Dr. Tasaki for his genuine caring for all his patients! I look forward to my kidney transplant & am grateful for his persistence in continuing to teach me about my kidney condition & not having it stop me from doing what I want to do in life. If you are in need of a nephrologist, I would undoubtedly recommend Dr. Tasaki!

They don't give you the opportunity to do this unless you insist. You will need the codes for any procedures to verify with your insurance plan.
