He was neatly dressed and took the time to listen.

I've been seeing Dr. Miyashiro since 2013 and I can't say enough great things about her. She's…read morebeen there for me and patiently listened even with me and my family asking the same questions multiple times in different ways repeatedly. She's more than just a doctor, she's caring and understanding. Never judgmental and always taking the time to make sure I'm ok physically and mentally. The staff have always been kind and considerate. Honestly, I don't usually write reviews on yelp for medical professions but I just wanted people to know that she is awesome because if you are being referred to see her, then usually you need peace of mind. Rest assured. She's awesome. Understand the stress and demands of healthcare workers and that they are multi-tasking. It's a busy office. If it wasn't, that would be more questionable. So I'm grateful.

I am a bit of a complex patient and an anxious one at the moment so I am super grateful that my Queen's physician made finding me a supportive match the priority. Dr. Miyashiro is incredibly empathetic. She was well prepared for my consultation which is sadly the exception rather than the rule nowadays. She went over my options taking my other medical issues in to consideration and respectfully listened to a couple I had heard about and shared with me pros and cons. It won't be an easy journey but I feel so much better with her as my quarterback. My wait was about 15 minutes and reception was meh, but maybe they were having a challenging day. It is a very busy office. Hope this review helps someone else considering physicians. I found information to be scarce.

If you happen to value interacting with caring people who genuinely care about serving others, like I do, she is definitely one of us... if I did not think or felt so...I would not waste my time posting this review.

ACCEPTING NEW PATIENTS I've recently established Dr. Nekoba…read moreas my PCP and I'm very pleased with my decision. Dr. Ashlee Nekoba is a fairly newer MD accepting new patients!! She's young, smart, thorough, and in the know of the newest methods (as opposed to some old timers who are set in their ways and not really up to date with the latest practices). Dr. Nekoba is extremely easy to talk to and relate to, especially for me since I'm 25. (I believe she's in her early 30s.) ELECTRONIC CHARTING I also love the fact that Dr. Nekoba's office is technologically advanced, as she does her charting electronically. I believe electronic charting is way more efficient and a lot faster! That way there's no rustling through paperwork or potential loss of records!!! POB III Her office is located on the 5th floor of POB III on S. Beretania Street. Parking is located in any of the POB structures (or Miller, but that's a far walk). Don't forget to get your ticket validated to avoid paying $2 per every half an hour (or fraction thereof). POB III parking is accessible on Lauhala St. (perpendicular to Beretania). VERDICT I could not be happier with my choice to establish Dr. Nekoba as my PCP. If you're looking for a new MD, definitely give Dr. Nekoba's office a call! Yelp 365 - 135/365

My elderly mother has Dr. Nekoba listed as her primary care physician on her insurance card. Like…read moremany in her generation, she follows the mindset of "if it's not broken, don't fix it," and hadn't seen her PCP in a while. A recent visit to urgent care revealed concerning lab results suggesting potential kidney failure. We were advised to follow up with her primary care doctor and repeat the blood test in about a month. When I contacted Dr. Nekoba's office, I was told that because it had been over two years since her last visit, she was now considered a new patient--and unfortunately, the doctor was no longer accepting new patients. I explained the urgency of her condition, and the receptionist said she would speak with Dr. Nekoba and get back to me. No one ever followed up. After calling multiple clinics, all with wait times of several months to nearly a year, I reached out to Dr. Nekoba's office again, desperate for help. I expressed how worried I was that my mother might not survive the wait. The receptionist again checked with Dr. Nekoba, but the answer remained unchanged--she would not see my mom. I was told to try the Queens Clinic, even though I had explained that Queens had already referred us back to her PCP and wouldn't even order another blood test without one. While I understand that doctors have policies and limits, the complete lack of compassion or flexibility in the face of a potentially life-threatening situation was incredibly disheartening. At the very least, I had hoped for some kind of guidance or support from someone listed as her doctor of record. Where's the Aloha?

Doctors like that are hard to come by nowadays. In fact, I decided to leave my last PCP when she stated her preference for two patient visits per year and the use of urgent care and the ER. She was candid about HMSA's reimbursement switch to a capitation plan as the basis for her preference. I empathize as I think this new payment system is detrimental for the patient too. So that wasn't going to work for me so I found paying the MDVIP fee a good investment. Dr Okimura has in-depth knowledge of my health issues and she is sincerely invested in finding solutions and helping me to be the best me. She is incredibly empathetic, timely responses to calls and emails and comes with well rounded knowledge. I really appreciate that she respects that I know my body and always takes my input into consideration. I highly recommend Dr Okimura!
