I saw Dr. Ryan Smith, and first of all, he sat down and spent time with my husband and me, which was appreciated. He was approachable, concerned, and professional. He was familiar with dysautonomia (POTs) and the type of care I would need. His staff followed through with the insurance to get the necessary medication approved for me. They also sent the referral I needed and the information required for me to be seen. Being chronically ill with mostly invisible disabilities and the fact that I am young typically make my medical experiences difficult. I will sometimes feel I have to prove I need help. Then, continue to make multiple follow-ups for basic care. That was not the case with Dr. Smith; he understood and started helping me immediately. This was the most seamless process I have experienced related to my complex care. When we left, I looked at my husband and asked if we really just got answers and a treatmentt visit. plan on my first. We were both so happy and grateful. The only thing that could be better is getting the portal information (website and login information) at the first appointment so I can confirm and communicate with the team any challenges with getting meds approved, etc. But that is so minor!! If you are looking for a cardiologist, I recommend Dr. Smith at Maui Cardiology. As a home health RN on Maui, I am so grateful that we have a provider like Dr. Smith here. I hope he never moves off the island! read more

1 Star because Dr Muto is a nice guy. I had a 2 minute videocall with him and he was quite personable. I'll never know if he's a good doctor though because his entire office staff team are entirely unaccommodating in making appointments for anyone with special needs or guaranteeing an appointment time for anyone with special needs - which we are. They do not text or email. They do not have an online appointment system and they do not have any email or any way to notify them of anything if you are hard of hearing or otherwise cannot use an audio phonecall. They sent me finally a message link through an app., and when I replied to that with the appointment times that would work for us, I never got any reply from them or confirmation that they even received my message. And I tried to log back in a couple days later to check again if they received my message trying to set my appointment time and the whole message link had expired and said "conversation expired."so there was no way for me to login. I also have an extremely tight schedule as someone who is the primary care provider for someone who does not walk or talk and has to be back at the home every day by 11:30 to sleep. We finally reached them by phone once which was the team effort because phone calls are not easy for our family, and we had a set appointment at 10 AM and they could not guarantee me that we would actually be seen at 10 or anytime in the morning and may have to wait several hours even though 10 is our appointment time and we have to leave by 11. I explained the entire situation and said that I absolutely have to leave the office no later than 11 and they could not guarantee that I would be seen before then. It's amazing that in six months they could not set up any kind of system to text or email for someone who cannot get on the phone easily. The Dmv was more accommodating and gave us a disability placard which I was prescribed from my PCP (which is not easy to get), hopefully they would've had a disabled parking spot for us at the clinic. I like to comment on those things for others who need it - but since they never managed to set up an appointment for us in which we would be seen at a specific time, I'll never know that so I cannot comment on that for sure. On that note, I can say definitely if you are hard of hearing or deaf or otherwise disabled or with special needs, and need a texting or email service to set up your appointments like we do, this is not the office for you. That will mess around for seven months and not accommodate your needs while your heart issues continue unexamined and untreated. I'm sure they'll never read and respond to this review right? Since they can't even text me or email me or manage their own messaging portal? Let's see. Maybe Yelp is the secret. read more

Maui Cardiology - Their sort of pathetic attempt at making a messaging accommodation - Cardiologists Near Me - Kahului, Hawaii

Update Jan 22: I had a medical event Christmas Day that put me in the ER. I was released the next day. I trust Dr. Muto and I wanted a expert to review the tests and paperwork and give me his opinion on what happened to me. I was able to get a appointment in in a week. I feel Better Now after hearing His and Dr Terry opinions. They interrogated my pacemaker and gave me another EKG. Reviewed the Hospital tests and consulted with us. For now, my event was a one time thing. Wait six months to be sure. I can do that. read more

Maui Cardiology - Front - Cardiologists Near Me - Kahului, Hawaii

My lovely middle age number plus my love of sodium is more than likely what got me a referral to Maui Cardiology and Dr. Muto. LOCATION & ATMOSPHERE: They're no longer on Wakea Avenue, but in a brand new facility on Hookele Street across from Target. Parking is limited and tight. The waiting area is small and is sometimes crowded. The 3 different exam rooms I've been in were spacious and clean. PROVIDERS: My consultation was with Dr. Muto. He was very friendly, easy to talk to, and explained everything in detail. To make sure I was healthy as a horse, he scheduled me with 3 future appointments of different tests, all within his clinic. I'm terrible with names, but the male tech who did my ultrasound and treadmill tests was professional, friendly, and made sure I was comfortable through it all. He explained exactly what he was doing and set my mind at ease at the end of the tests with his expert opinion. My most recent follow up, this time with one of the female physician assistants for all my past tests, was top notch as well, and only reassured me of the quality care they provide. SERVICE: The reception staff and nurses have been nothing but great. It all started when my PCP's nurse never got back to me for this referral visit. Calls and voice messages to them went unanswered for 2 weeks. So, I finally called up Maui Cardiology direct, explained what was happening, and without any hesitation, they scheduled me for a consultation with Dr. Muto ASAP, and assured me that they'd phone my PCP. That's some terrific service. OVERALL: Professional staff, top quality care. Highly recommended. read more

Great experience from start to finish. When we call, the phone is answered by a human right away who is always friendly and efficient. Got an appointment within a few days even as a new patient. All staff members were efficient and competent. Dr. Muto had a laid back relaxed style that makes you comfortable and feel like you are in good hands. We got the tests scheduled immediately and done within a week. read more

This cardiology practice has no ethics. Their word is crap and the professionalism is nonexistent. Most people looking at these reviews are looking at them from a patient perspective. This is a story about how Maui Cardiology treats their employees. My fiancé, who is a physicians assistant (PA), applied for a job at this practice. To start with this practice asked some unethical questions upfront which gave us a lot of red flags immediately. Questions like, do you have kids? Are you planning on having kids? We do not have children and are not planning on having children so apparently we were still in the running. With red flags raised high! We flew out on our own dime, rented a vehicle on our own dime. After shadowing their staff for two days my fiancé was offered the position. She was going to have to take a pay cut, and we were going to have to pay to move there at our own expense, but this was acceptable for the journey that we were excited to embark on. Maui Cardiology's main request was that my fiancé start the position ASAP. They wanted her to quit her job without giving notice. More red flags. In an effort to get my fiancé and myself to Maui so she could start the position ASAP, we came home and immediately started the hunt for a home to purchase on Maui. We also put our house on the market for sale. A home I've been living in for 20 years. Obviously we don't move around much, or on a whim. This move was a big deal! After making offers and receiving a counter offers on a home to purchase in Maui, we got a phone call from Maui cardiology telling us that they were resending the offer, thanks anyway. RESCINDING THE OFFER WE HAD AGREED ON AND ACCEPTED!!! In my 25 years as a construction contractor, and my fiancé and her 10 years as a physicians assistant, neither one of us of ever heard of anybody rescinding an offer that we had already accepted. Complete unprofessionalism. Their word is crap. Their ethics are nonexistent. I understand that you're likely reading this trying to figure out if this is a good place to go get your heart checked. I would say find ANYWHERE else. Do not support businesses that treat people like this. If they don't care about about treating their prospective employees with dignity and respect, why would you expect any different as a patient? read more

I am a new patient with Dr. Muto. I have been happy with the efficiency of his practice.

Pleased how the quickly figured out my dads heart condition and helped get him stateside for open heart surgery.
