Aloha Nui DPC, LLC provides high quality and prompt medical services to our community. We have shortage of doctors and medical services in Hawaii, so we are very fortunate to have them serving our community. They are super-efficient. Your referrals, prescriptions, appointments, etc. are setup in record times. They are super friendly and make you feel part of their Ohana. I recently had a medical issue that required extensive tests, specialist appointments, etc. They worked diligently on my referral, medication, follow up appointment etc. They did not stop until we found the cause of my medical issue. Now, we are working on getting the medical treatment I need. Thank you for being part of my life and for genuinely having my health and overall wellbeing at heart. You are the best. read more

Appointments are made easily available on very short notice. Aloha Nui is 'da best!' read more

Dr. Harmeling and his staff are AMAZING. Dr. Harmeling is exceptionally knowledgeable and takes the time to explain the details of any issue with you in some detail. I LOVE his one-hour appointments. It allows you to get through any issues you have without a rush. He takes the time to listen to you and thoroughly understand your situation. His subscription service seems a little expensive at first blush, but with all things considered it is reasonable for three reasons: 1.) His service is outstanding. 2.) HMSA covers a part of the appointment costs. 3.) Dr. Harmeling does some procedures in his office as part of the subscription that you would have to pay separately for with another doctor. My wife and I have been his patients for about 10 years. Dr. Harmeling is, by a large margin, the best doctor I have had in my lifetime. read more

I made an appointment with them for today 1/13/2017.(Kapa took my call) I tried calling on Thurs, 1/12/2017 to confirm but no answer, just a recording which kept looping around so couldn't leave a message. I tried for 3 hours to reach them but without luck. Now I took off work for today's appointment, I showed but only to find a sign on their door saying "sorry we are closed today" You have no idea how upset I was ! I DID NOT receive a call on Thursday or even Friday morning that the office would be closed.. Just what type of business are you running (or not running) ..Won't be back that's for sure..Won't recommend them to anyone either! Worst service, or lack of I've ever seen!! Linda Santos read more

If you are looking for a PCP whose staff embodies aloha, call Aloha Nui Family Practice. The doctors, Physician's Assistants, nurses, medical assistants, and most of all, the reception staff are top notch. I've been a patient since the office opened and have had nothing but positive experiences. Everybody listens intently. They repeat back what they are hearing for clarity. Each member of the staff takes time to make me feel as if their day would not have been complete if I had not come in for a "visit"....even when I'm sick as a dog. Waiting time can be an issue. However, to be fair, the doctors and the PAs give me as much time as I need to receive all the care I need. If I go in for one issue there is always time for other (non-related) issues. So, I know that when my time arrives, I will have the undivided attention of the medical staff until all my issues are resolved. (I've been to some PCPs when I know I have to "get in and get out" and feel like I'm just a number. This is NOT the case at Aloha Nui Family Practice. I've never felt rushed when I speak to any of the staff.) In addition, if my appointment is later in the day, I call and ask if the appointments are running on time. Based on the front office's best guess, I've adjusted my arrival time. read more

We have been extremely pleased with the care that has been provided at Aloha Nui. Dr. Harmeling and his staff are creating a care center for the 21st century, one which values and treats their patients with compassion, knowledge and skill. read more

I have had Dr. Stephan Harmeling as my primary care physician for approximately 8 years. I have never had a better physician. I was initially sad to lose him last year when he converted his practice to a "no insurance" business model. After researching other physicians (and trying one), I realized even more, the special character of Dr Harmeling. I do not consider myself an "easy" patient. We argue about treatment plans occasionally (I win now and then). He presents the "mainstream" view and treatment options but is very open to alternative therapies when appropriate. I have recently returned to him as a patient and am VERY pleased with the changes. While he tried to be flexible in the past, he was inhibited by insurance restrictions constantly. The practice's conversion to the business model has allowed him to maintain his resolve to being the best physician he can be, with patient diagnoses and treatment plans that reflect patient needs regardless of predetermined insurance requirements. Finally, I want to mention the staff of Aloha Nui. They are, in a word, incredible! From the front desk to nursing staff, they are warm, genuine, empathetic, supportive and I consider them all true friends. Not surprising that they reflect so many of the qualities of my favorite doctor. They have a new rate schedule that is more affordable and I encourage anyone to become a patient member of this incredible organization. read more

Dr. Stephan Harmeling HAS "Aloha!" Would've given a 4-star rating but his receptionist/office clerk, Shy, has been consistently very moody and lacking aloha. Very rarely smiles and does not possess a helpful spirit. Not a face one would expect to see upon entering an establishment containing "Aloha" in its name; a welcoming warm greeting would be more fitting. Dr. Harmeling is intuitive, energetic and has a warm, infectious smile. He has a great personality and is usually easy to talk to. While sometimes in a rush, not nearly as bad as most other doctors here in Hawaii. Office is clean. I would recommend Dr. Harmeling for people wanting a doctor who is strictly allopathic (Western conventional/mainstream medicine). read more

I have been seeing Al Braun for almost two years now. He is always kind, caring, professional and knowledgeable. He and the staff there have been accommodating as well as helpful in getting me appointments as well as labs and specialist appointments. I do say there is a wait sometimes but it probably because they really do take their time to make sure you are well taken cared of. I would give 5 stars if not for the wait time. read more

I asked for the Gardasil vaccine when i was 28 and the nurse practitioner completely blew me off. I was on the cusp of being too old for the recommended age. She didn't even check to see if my insurance covered it. She didn't ask if I was willing to pay cash. Years later, that dismissal was life changing. I will never forgive this crap shoot practice for not giving me the opportunity to protect myself from something that is probably going to kill me. read more

Dr. Harmeling has been my primary care physician for 6 years. He has gone above and beyond to make sure I get the best care available. There is a saying "people won't care about how much you know until they know how much you care". Dr. Harmeling truly cares for his patients. His staff is amazing all genuinely kind, personable yet professional. They are a reflection of Dr. Harmeling and his practice, rightfully named Aloha Nui Family Practice. Mahalo palena ole! read more

I've been going to Aloha Nui Family Practice for over a year. All of the staff are knowledgeable in the areas they work. As for Dr. Harmeling, he is fantastic. He believes in treating all aspects of a persons health and well being. read more

Dr. Harmeling is a great doctor and I have always enjoyed my visits with him. The problem seems to be the other staff. I've had several problems making appointments with them, they don't seem to have it together in that regard, and it is very frustrating. read more
