Thank you Dr. Williams to you and your team. I went into see Dr. Williams for a little blisters…read morethat were appearing on my thumb and fingers. He examined and explained that what was going on appeared to be an autoimmune reaction and he ordered labs so he could treat the root cause and rule out any autoimmune conditions. He also prescribed me a topical steroid which took the blisters away quickly. I continue to be under Dr. Williams care to keep a watch of my body's autoimmune response. During our conversations he asked if I had any other symptoms and I explained that I have been feeling sluggish, fatigued, lack of energy, weak in my legs, brain fog for the past five years. Dr. Williams ran another series of labs to check my adrenal glands and thyroid function. Lab results revealed hypo thyroid. Dr. Williams prescribed me a low-dose prescription and also plant-based adrenal supplements to help increase my T3, cortisol levels and to improve my overall adrenal function. After three days, I begin to feel so much better I wanted to cry happy tears. I feel that Dr. Williams really listened to me and cared enough to investigate when past medical doctors didn't. We are re-running labs again to check my thyroid function after 8 weeks. If you are looking for a wellness doctor, I highly recommend visiting Dr. Williams to discuss your symptoms. If you're questioning your thyroid function I also recommend listening to podcasts with Elle Russ.

I had laser hair removal on my underarms at Island Dermatology and completed over 12 treatment…read moresessions. Unfortunately, I saw little to no results. My underarm hair still grows back just as thick as before, and I didn't notice any meaningful reduction after all of those appointments. Another concern I have is that since my treatments, I've occasionally experienced unusual sensations in my underarms, including itching, burning, and twitching. I can't say for certain what caused it, but I didn't have these symptoms before my treatments, so it has been concerning. Given the cost, time, and number of appointments, I was very disappointed with my experience and expected much better results. I hope my review helps others make an informed decision and encourages the clinic to address these concerns with future patients.

However, since I'm the type of person that tends to internalize my stress, my body decided to react in other ways, specifically in these rash-type lesions on my hands and wrists that looked absolutely raw (and were painful beyond relief). Initially, my mother-in-law, who's a nurse believed I might have developed psoriasis, so recommended Dr. Huntley since he had helped my husband and his sister with their dermatology issues. I wasn't sure what to expect or how to prep since I'd never previously seen a dermatologist and while I suffered from acne in my teens, it was nothing too severe that warranted a visit. However, Dr. Huntley was informative and kind, if a little stern, but otherwise helpful with my skin concerns. Apparently, what I had was not psoriasis but eczema and he had prescribed steroid cream to aid in hydration and healing. My eczema has been well controlled since and fortunately, perhaps due to age, I've gotten better at managing my stress and anxiety. Overall, if you're looking for a good dermatologist on the Windward side and aren't sure where to look, I'd highly recommend Dr. Huntley as he is quick, efficient, and not one to beat around the bush--long story short, my husband still has a grudge against Dr. Huntley since when he had visited as a teen, the doc had told him that the reason he had such bad acne was that he was fat LOL. Fortunately, my visit bore no such interaction and my eczema was well managed thereafter. I still get a good laugh every time I think about my husband in his teens interacting with Dr. Huntley.

I left pretty pissed and defeated because I took such care and nursed it for so long but it seemed like for nothing now. So I called dr. Huntley's office for a second opinion plus I feel this is more his field then my PCP. The front desk at both offices are amazingly nice and welcoming. I was worried when I first saw dr Huntley because he is older so I thought he would just tell me to take the damn thing out like my PCP did. Anyways he knew exactly what it was and said he doesn't thing think I need to take the meds the doc gave me. He did remove the bump and put some ointment to prevent infection. He also took a culture just in case their was an infection which gave me the piece of mind I needed. Dr. Huntley felt confident that my nose will heal nicely and my nose ring can stay in :). I trust him not because he told me what I wanted to hear its because he really knows what he's doing. He's also a really sweet man and even removed some annoying skin tags. I just made another appointment to see what he can do for my acne scars. Give him a try, he really is a great dermatologist.

From tirzepatide to PRP, Morpheus8, the Salt Facial, and lip and midface filler - every treatment has delivered beautiful, natural-looking results that I am genuinely proud of. What sets Dr. Foo and her team apart is how they treat every patient like family. I never feel like just another appointment on the schedule. They take time to listen, explain every step, and tailor each treatment to what works best for me personally. The monthly membership program has made staying consistent with my care so much more accessible, and the deals they offer show that Dr. Foo truly invests in long-term relationships with her patients - not just one-time visits. If you want a practice that combines clinical excellence with genuine warmth, Aloha Aesthetics MD is the place. I walk out of every appointment feeling seen, cared for, and absolutely glowing. I cannot recommend Dr. Foo and the team enough.

SURGERY PATIENTS BEWARE…read more I deeply regret selecting Dr. Shim Ching. My experience with him and Asia Pacific was a nightmare, and a significant portion of my result is so unacceptable that I require a costly and risky revision surgery. I feel botched and mutilated. I avoid mirrors and public settings because of the effect this has on my appearance. I am deeply ashamed that I trusted this person and allowed them to do this to my body. On the day of surgery, the anesthesiologist was unaware of important medical history that I had provided to Dr. Ching's staff weeks earlier. Asia Pacific had expressly assured me that my medical history and concerns were being taken seriously. Yet, as I sat prepped and awaiting surgery, it became abundantly clear that this information had not been shared with the anesthesiologist. I then waited in the intake room for more than two hours while the anesthesiologist requested the information I had provided and reviewed it to assess surgical risk. Despite the practice's error, I had no financially viable option to cancel on the spot. Withdrawing that morning would have meant forfeiting over $40,000. I was therefore placed in the untenable position of either proceeding with surgery despite serious concerns about the handling of my medical records or losing the entire amount I had paid because of an error that was not mine. No respectable medical practice would place a patient in that position. This failure, compounded by serious deficiencies in postoperative care and communication, destroyed my trust in both Dr. Ching and his staff. Their conduct changed markedly after the practice collected my full surgical fees -- they repeatedly revealed serious deficiencies in professionalism, communication, and basic administrative competence. I recently requested a partial refund to help defray the cost of revision surgery with a different surgeon. Asia Pacific denied that request outright, without dialogue with me or any form of good-faith effort to address why I don't feel safe with Dr. Ching. Offering to revise his own work is not a reasonable solution when repeated lapses in professionalism, communication, and patient care have left me with no confidence in his judgment or ability. I strongly urge prospective patients to conduct thorough due diligence before entrusting Dr. Ching with their body, safety, and money. Do not assume that "over a million followers" is actually real, or that an expensive office is evidence of surgical competence, patient safety, or accountability.
