When I came in, I met with the Dr who then told me the treatment I signed up for wasn't what would produce the best results for what I was hoping to accomplish. Then, because I was there and obviously wanting to see results, I was convinced to purchase a package rather than the special I signed up for. Totally my fault for being gullible. Each week, each uncomfortable treatment, hours of time... nothing. Then what I think was an AI assistant, texts me for a follow up. Then says maybe they can help me with a better treatment for results. Ummmmm no thank you. Only reason I'm leaving stars at all, the ladies have had during my visits were great.

Due to osteoarthritis in multiple joints, I can now barely stand and walk. My weight ballooned to…read morethe heaviest I had ever been. I need both knees replaced. My previous orthopedic surgeon told me to get bariatric surgery and when I lost enough, then I could have knee surgery. We had a parting of the ways instead. My current orthopedic surgeon first referred me to a hospital weight management program. One of the best things that happened was the clinic was moving offices and didn't get back to me in a timely fashion. In the meantime, my doctor asked if I wanted to try keto. Sure, I said, why not? One year after starting a supervised keto diet with Dr. Jodi, I've lost 75 lbs, halfway to the minimum amount I want to lose. Knee replacement surgery for the right side is scheduled to take place in a couple of months, with surgery on the left side happening three months later. You ease into the diet and ketosis. If you follow it, it is unlikely you will experience keto flu. You get food lists and guidance, not meal plans, which wouldn't work for me as I have multiple food allergies and some dislikes. The plan is balanced, low carb, and lower fat. Healthy eating that can be sustained for a lifetime. For various reasons, I deviated twice from the diet. Never again. Once I ate rice. It threw me out of ketosis and I felt sick for two days. I had to restart the diet. Recently I ate canned luncheon meat slices and hot dogs. It was eat that, or nothing. I should have gone with nothing. Soon it felt as though there was a pile of bricks in my stomach. I threw up six times. My stomach could not take that much fat anymore. I was a sugar fiend. I couldn't stand any bitter taste or overpowering foods. I no longer crave sugar. In fact, I rarely eat anything sweet anymore. I have 90% dark chocolate now and then and things like bell peppers now without a problem. Before, I couldn't stand these. My taste buds have been reprogrammed. I realized texture is way more important to me than I thought. I go online and try various keto recipes. Most are quick and easy and are delicious. If you share your keto dishes with others, and you didn't tell others they were low carb, they'd never know, because they taste so good. Because I get enough protein, I am rarely hungry. My hair and nails grow very fast. Dr. Jodi and I meet via telehealth, which is great for me. In between appointments, if I have questions, I email her. The diet requires patience and a focus on the long-term. Weight loss is not a linear process. You may occasionally gain a bit, which is a sign the diet is out of balance - maybe too much fat, water retention from too much salt, etc. I keep a food and drink diary that I share with Dr. Jodi before each appointment so she can provide feedback. I have two friends doing keto unsupervised. Both are struggling. It's been easy for me, but of course everyone is different. I went online to see what some websites say about keto, and they've twisted it to be a meat (fat) heavy diet. Bad for your health and unsustainable, even if you lose weight. Dr. Jodi supervises a clean keto diet, emphasizing whole, fresh foods. There are many packaged products out there labeled as keto. Yes, they are low carb, but they are not healthy and are filled with crap ingredients. This is the only diet I've been on that I feel I can sustain and won't gain the weight back afterwards. I check out restaurant menus to see which ones have things I can eat. So I'm still able to eat out or get restaurant food delivery. Keto isn't for everyone. But you can try it, and if it doesn't suit you, you can stop. At least you tried.

If you've read my reviews on the unprofessional and lousy staff at…read moremany of Honolulu's medical facilities, you know I take health care and professionalism seriously. I have being going to Dr Behling for over 3 years now and have recommended him to many of my friends. The staff is polite and maybe because they are not a big corporate hospital, they actually want to see their patients and actually care about what they do.

Accessibility: Poor. Attention to Patient Needs: Poor…read more Bedside Manner: Poor. Initially friendly, but quickly impatient. Interrupts, does not allow the patient to communicate. Assumes rather than inquires. Lectures rather than listens. Knowledge Base: Questionable, remedial. My Experiences: Dr. Behling was physically absent at 2 of 3 in-office appointments, unprepared at 3rd visit. At my initial assessment, the MA took my vitals, led me to an exam room, and then after a long wait brought in an iPad with Dr. Behling on a video chat app. If you work in healthcare, you know all initial assessments are performed in-person. This also happened at my third visit. It is frustrating to drive 35 minutes to an office and sit there for an hour only to discover that the doctor is on a ship in the middle of the ocean, using satellite internet with unreliable service. Dr. Behling's impatience, assumptiveness, and proclivity to jump to incorrect conclusions impeded effective communication and appropriate delivery of care. A healthcare assessment starts with the physician asking questions and listening to the patient's answers. Not only did Dr. Behling not ask the questions, but when given a small amount of information he immediately jumped to wrong conclusions and did not allow the opportunity to communicate further. When I called to report a problem, Dr. Behling refused to take or return my phone call and instead instructed his staff to set up a telephone visit a couple weeks later. This resulted in me seeking medical advice elsewhere, but Dr. Behling did not bother to ask that question either. Testosterone Pellet Placement: Dr. Behling did not demonstrate expertise with this procedure and would benefit from further education. He placed the pellets in the middle of the gluteals instead of more towards the hip. Every time I sat down, such as to drive home, the pressure of sitting made it feel that the pellets would be pushed out. I was constantly checking for correct placement. This area was very sore for 2 weeks and I now have a noticeable scar in a once beautiful area. I'm sad to say I experienced very poor delivery of care. Before writing this review, I attempted to communicate these issues to both Dr. Behling and his office staff; however, his office manager/wife was more interested in defending him than listening, resulting in her outright contradicting her own husband's medical instructions.

He gives you those reality-check answers that make you think, 'Duh, what was I thinking? I already knew that.' It makes you realize you're paying medical bills just to have him remind you of common sense, but lo and behold, you follow his advice and it works. Dr. Suh is the real deal; he tells you exactly what you need to hear and basically says, 'Stop acting silly, you know what to do, now go do it. He is def one of those guys where after talking to him, he will pose questions where you kinda say to yourself I hate it when he's right. Braddah is good. He'll cure you from the root of the prob, your job is stop acting stupid and follow his advice. His staff is awesome. I travel so I almost always have to cancel set appointments and they have done everything to accommodate me - gah they're rockstars!

I went to Dr. Ferrante for a hip problem after my orthopedic hip doctor wasn't helping me. She is…read morevery personable and carefully listened to my concerns, reviewed my imaging, and asked appropriate questions. We proceeded with a PRP injection, which I learned that there was actual homework/prep work for me to do BEFORE the treatment that the hip MD didn't even tell me about! Such things like stopping NSAIDs, drinking, fasting, etc. to help make the PRP injection more successful. I would not have known this if it weren't for Dr. Ferrante. The injection went smoothly and I experienced significant pain relief. I will return to do the other hip now that I know how successful it is. I know PRP injections are expensive, but definitely worth the price (insurance doesn't pay for them thru a MD anyways). She made me feel comfortable (as comfortable as you can- these injections are sore) thru out the procedure, and increased my trust by providing me with a lot of information about what to expect before/during/after, and of course following up. Of note, when I came in for a hip follow up, she noticed I had a wrist brace on, and took initiative to inquire about this new injury and brainstormed a special taping to help offload/support the area (again, something that the orthopedic PA didn't think about) which also provided more stability/less pain for my wrist. She offered another treatment option for it if occupational therapy didn't help. I highly recommend Dr. Ferrante, she takes the time to listen, thinks outside the box, keeps you well-informed, and offers effective solutions to your health concerns.

I absolutely DO NOT recommend this physician…read more I am a retired ICU Registered Nurse. My husband is a retired physician. I was referred to Dr Yang for a colonoscopy - a 3 year post - polyp removal follow up. Below were some of my many concerns: 1.I found his administrative staff to be polite but incompetent - especially a male named Vincent. Vincent would repeatedly contact me over the course of 4 months to request my "healthcare authorization". Which I repeatedly re-sent. This was actually not what he needed. He was actually requesting my "health history". 2. The weekend before my scheduled "pre -procedure" appointment - Vincent contacted me yet again to let me know they had not yet received my "healthcare authorization". He said they would have to "cancel" my pre - procedure appointment " if they did not receive my paperwork by 5pm on that Friday. I again sent my "medical authorization " paperwork. Unfortunately- it was a Friday. And I realized my appointment was at 8am the following Monday. I did not want them to cancel an appointment that I had waited 4 months for. So - I contacted Dr Yang via cell number provided by voicemail. I reached him - and he was audibly disturbed that I had dared to contact him regarding ensuring that my appointment was kept as my paperwork was in order...he did wish to concern himself with such a trivial matter. I found him to be abrupt, condescending....and rude over the phone. 3. I showed up early on Monday morning with my husband at my side. Dr Yang was late. His waiting room was small- there were 3 other patients waiting with me. So - he's "cramming" 4 patients into an 8am time slot - with only ONE physician. As he entered - he was clearly irritable- he barked at his front desk staff to remove a sign from his office front door. As I was seated right next to the door - and his staff were behind an enclosed desk ( they would have had to walk around) - to be helpful I got up and removed the sign as he wished. He did not like that. He wanted his own staff to do as he bid. Already off to a bad start. 4. During my office visit - it became very clear that it was a "pre-procedure" visit. For a COLONOSCOPY. I've had 2 previous colonoscopies. The purpose of my visit was so that he could SELL me his "special" colon prep. And he wanted to explain to us personally all the details of his colon prep. During this entire visit - he was rude and condescending. He did not like the fact that I had called him personally on the weekend to ensure that I would see him Monday morning. He did not like the fact that both my husband and I were a nurse and a physician - he needed to let us understand we knew our place in HIS world. 5. We bought his "special" colon prep. I went home - and realized that Dr Yang was probably the worst physician I have ever encountered- both as a nurse working at Straub Hospital in their ICU...and as a patient. Horrible bedside manner...and I certainly was not willing to find out if his clinical skills were any better by letting him insert a scope into my unconscious body. I wrote above so that every person on Oahu would understand that they do not need to be treated in such an ABUSIVE way and receive substandard care from any physician. Just walk away. NO. I cancelled the appointment with him. Dr Russell Yang should never practice again. Dr James W O'Brien at Surgicare Hawaii eventually did my colonoscopy. He was EXCELLENT.
