The reporting was the problem. I was sent home with a couple of picture of my colon with no professional explanation at what I was seeing. No follow up appointment was scheduled. I called several times seeking results, cancer- no cancer, what? After waiting 6 weeks I got a form letter telling me to "recall" information I was never informed about. It was my idea to look online to Castles online patient records to find out my results. I contacted Castle Hospitals ombudsman to give recommendations for Dr to improve communication when testing for cancer.

I was referred to Dr. Miyamoto after being ghosted by another gastro who never followed up with me…read moreto schedule an appointment, and honestly, I am SO glad that that happened because what a God-send Dr. Miyamoto is. She is so friendly, warm, kind... amazing bedside manner. In fact her whole team is incredible. It's weird to say that this is one doctor I don't mind visiting. It was truly the first time I felt really heard with all these issues that had been ailing me for the last few years. She give options, listens, explains in a way that makes me feel empowered to be my own health advocate. She is truly a gift to the medical field.

I know no one wants to have a colonoscopy, but you have to; and, I will say - I LOVE Dr. Miyamoto!…read more I had early symptoms at 39; and, my OB/GYN referred me to another gastro. He was the WORST!! I told my OB/GYN to NEVER refer anyone to this doctor and gave her a laundry list of reasons why. Although I was supposed to return within 5 years (due to the number of polyps) I refused to go back. I didn't go for another 12 years, until my PCP really got on me. LOL! She referred me to Dr. Miyamoto and she is AWESOME!!! So competent, friendly, compassionate, and genuinely cares about you. She works with an awesome staff as well. My "operating room" was full of caring and kind people. I didn't hesitate to schedule my next appointment with Dr. Miyamoto when it was time to go again. I have referred several of my friends to her as well. I'm so thankful I have her!

I had my endoscopy yesterday first thing in the morning, and all I can say is that they exceeded my…read moreexpectations! I usually get poked a few times because my veins are small, but they made the entire process very comfortable. The anesthesiologist was incredibly kind and accommodated my request so I didn't have to be poked multiple times. She reassured me by saying I wasn't a hard stick--which really helped ease my nerves (even though I usually am!). I also truly appreciate the nurse who prepped me for the procedure; I genuinely felt the care and compassion. And of course, thank you to Dr. Obana for taking such great care of me throughout the procedure. From beginning to finish, they made me feel safe and well cared for. I highly recommend this place if you're looking for true, genuine care.

I informed them that I do not have a PCP since UHA does not need a PCP referral and that I can directly schedule with the provider. She was adamant about having a PCP which again what does one do if I don't have a PCP and I am 45 just needing a screening. OMG at least the other office I just called also asked for a PCP referral and when asked I said to just do a screening cause of my age. OMG. Are we in the 1990's for medical care?

My procedure took abut 45 minutes and he was able to find polyps and remove them. The staff at Pacific Endoscopy are very, very nice as well. To maintain your privacy, you are assigned a number, so they call your number instead of your name when the nurses are ready to prep you. Although I could only see his eyes, in my drug-hazed state, Dr. Wong reminded me of my husband at the same age. That was strangely comforting to me. Dr. Wong and Pacific Endoscopy were very good about giving me instructions, such as the day-before prep (not fun), and what to do on the day of your procedure. They provided me with a Medi-Van service number that I could call, since I wasn't able to drive home after the procedures. They are very thorough in telling patients what to do and expect with these procedures.

He said he probably wouldn't find anything to answer my stomach issue, which I've been dealing with well over a year. He then proceeded to say, I was lactose intolerant.

I would never recommend him. And I'm still suffering with my stomach issue,

But it's his front staff that needs to be worked on, because for the past few weeks I had the most difficult time trying to get my dads medical records faxed over to his health physician. They continuously gave me the run arounds about how his physician should be the ones requesting it, when I'm verbally trying to explain to them that there's a telehealth appointment set a few weeks out. I've left numerous amounts of voicemails, and no one got back to me after I tried requesting an earlier time due to traffic hours and my hectic work schedule. They've informed me that it was against HIPAA to send my dads records to his physician, but I as well work with a health care provider and from my understanding it is not against HIPAA to send patient records to the doctors that had referred the patient to the specialist. We had a follow up appointment today, it was not certain if my dads medical records were sent to his physician. So, we ended up just making it to this appointment. As I checked my dad in, the girl looked at me confused and kept asking me my dads last name. She spoke to the lady besides her in Tagalog (AS IF I DONT SPEAK NOR UNDERSTAND) stating that his appointment was cancelled. It was not in our knowledge that his appointment was cancelled, but thankfully she said to just add my dad to the schedule and that it was okay. I don't know who's running his front staff but they need to work on it, so unprofessional and no one ever answers the phone nor returns calls. Did I also mention that they charge $1 for Mask? Outrageous, we don't even charge for Mask.

I wouldn't be scheduling if I didn't feel Iwas experiencing health issues so I'm really disappointed especially since I gave them so much time in advance
