We refer to Leahi Hospital Nursing Home as the "Fair Weather Friend" because when patients stay in…read morea vegetated state they seem to be cordial. But if a patient is more than zombie-like and they have to work a little harder then they turn against you. Their answer is to get rid of the patient, send him to ER, and make the patient someone else's problem. I once wrote a glowing review of Leahi Hospital Nursing Home, just last year, when my dad was admitted. Yes, they have a number of very good staff members such as Star the Activities Manager, CNA Armeda, CNA Essen, Nurse Jennifer, CNA Suzie, Social Worker Carla and Linda in Admissions. These individuals are great at what they do and are caring professionals. These people are what made my dad's year-stay. LHNH is considered and registered as Dementia/ Alzheimer facility yet except for some few individuals they seems to know NOTHING about even the basics of Dementia. That is, just google search the different stages of Dementia and symptoms are clearly listed yet Leahi seem to be ignorant. You would think the head nurses would know and be able to manage staff of what patients with Dementia goes through yet it was disappointing to say the least. They way the head nurses dealt with my dad was to try to send him to ER to get rid of him when they didn't like what they saw. My dad, the last months before his death, was given the wrong meds and I made it clear that it is making his dementia worst and yet I was ignored. My siblings and I were super involved, we visited every day for 4-15 hrs. 5-6 hrs physically by my two siblings and up to 10 hrs via FACETIME by me since I live on the mainland. I research Dementia and spoke with DR. Lu (who is excellent) about medicine that I have research but the head nurse and the primary doctor (for multiple nursing homes who barely spends 5 seconds per patient) would not listen to me. They cleary ignored what Dr. Lu and I were agreeing on for my dad. The Pimary doctor's order trumps everyone I was told. My dad last week at Leahi was pure hell for him and us......the meds they put him on made him psychotic as he sadly begged to be helped. Finally, he was sent to ER because we knew LHNH was not equipped to help and they are the ones who made him this way. My dad's was a kind man and through his dementia he was more and more like a 5 year old child. He would have occasional temper tantrums, NEVER VIOLENT, as all Dementia patients do but once on FACTEIME or a 15 minute drive over to see him he would calm down. It should be noted the tantrums came from the fact that no one spoke Korean at Leahi and he could not get what he wanted understood by Leahi. I should note they have one or two people employed who spoke Korean but it was rare to see them assigned on his floor. My dad spoke fluent English but when dementia hit, we were told by a doctor at Queens Hospital (which is an excellent hospital) usually patients revert to their first language which was Korean for dad. Anyway, I can go on and on of our many disappointments with Leahi Hospital Nursing Home but what is the use at this point. But it should also be noted that once he was sent to ER at Queens Hospital they took him off all the crap meds Leahi put him on and he was fine doing well until COVID, which was traced back to Leahi, had him at Queens Hospital for over 10 days. In the end, my dad went through so much that he passed away at Queens Hospital but overall it was for the best because Queens took care of him and gave him peace! I write this not to just make others aware but to make sure Leahi understands their shortcomings and maybe make changes via training, more qualified head nurses, and better policies.

Leahi is a nursing home and long term care facility with a long history. It was built after the…read moreChinatown "Home for the Incurables" burned down and also used during World War II. Today, it's primarily a nursing home, home to Hale Mohalu (Hansen's disease unit), an Adult Day Care and has TB beds. I admit that the facility looks really scary if you're looking at if from KCC. The facility is old. Really old. Outside, there's remnants of the old schoolhouse building and the ramp that atttached to the KCC nursing student classes/hospital cafeteria is not in service. But for facility in use since the 40's, it's got a lot of heart. The patient wards are clean and visiting hours are 24/7. I love their thrift shop, I know the Royal Hawaiian Band stops by to play for residents, the Day Care is convenient for those with older parents that live nearby. T *There is no ER here because it's a nursing home! Aiya, tourists that keep calling here because they see the word "hospital" *They don't give TB shots here anymore! Instead, call Diamond Head clinic, right across the street. Bottom line: It's a good little nursing home, convenient for those with eldery loved ones who live near to the hospital location. he staff are nice people and always direct lost KCC students to their classes (it's the building with the circular ramp in front of it!)

You check in at the kiosk, and just wait your turn. Valenso was the nurse practitioner who was there today. He was very friendly, personable, courteous, and professional. He makes you feel comfortable and at ease. You can come here for almost anything from minor injuries and illnesses to vaccines and injections to skin issues to earwax removal and then some. Overall, MinuteClinic is definitely useful. Super friendly staff. Clean and bright room. Very easy to make appointments for the same and next day.

That being said, I don't usually see my PCP unless I'm feeling like "Death is knocking on my door" and I always go in for an annual physical. This past weekend, we were experiencing a lot of rain and humidity which in Hawai'i, often comes with VOG, when the storm system comes from out South. So, when I woke this morning with some allergy symptoms, I decided to contact the CVS Minute Clinic instead of calling my PCP. The online process of contacting a CVS Minute Clinic was quick and easy. -Go to http://www.cvs.com. Select Minute Clinic. -You can look for the nearest site of Minute Clinic that is located in a CVS Pharmacy plus see what the waiting time is. -Make your selection and you will be assigned an appointment and a confirmation code. Your appointment time and code will be sent to your e-mail and phone (text). -Show up at least 5 minutes prior to your appointment to check-in at their dedicated kiosk. Of course, rather than scheduling an appointment, you can walk-in and they'll see you. However, just know that if you walk-in, those who have appointments will be seen before you. Today, I saw Reynard Nievera, ARNP, who was congenial and professional. He was thorough with his line of questioning as I described my symptoms. After taking my vitals, I told him that I was concerned that my symptoms were just due allergy to the VOG or possibly the onset of flu. Reynard took a couple of test samples and luckily it turned out that i was having allergies. He prescribed several medications which I was able to pick up from the CVS Pharmacy around the corner from this office. Also, I agreed to have follow-up calls to make sure the medications are helping to address and relieve my allergies. The Minute Clinic offers several programs that would augment those that your PCP would prescribe. Their business hours and locations are convenient (usually located inside a CVS store), especially if you're unable to get to your PCP on the same day. They even accept many health insurances. Go ahead and check online to see if you might be able schedule an appointment or walk-in to a Minute Clinic near you.

Kapahulu Medical Clinic is located where KC Drive Inn used to be and has been around for many years…read morenow. There is lot attendant who has been there for many years and pretty much knows where the empty parking stalls are and will direct you to the nearest one. The parking lot can get crowded so he might have you wait to drive in. Before you get to the elevators to go up, you will have to have your temperature checked and they limit 2 people in the elevator at a time. Since it is a clinic, don't be surprised if you have to wait awhile to get in. They are pretty much a mini hospital as they can do all the regular tests such as blood, urine, take x-rays, ultra sounds all in the same building. Pro Tip: make sure you go early just in case the parking lot is full and you have to wait. Remember, in most cases, it's ok for you to wait but not your doctor.

They even have a little snack section next to the pharmacy on the 3rd floor. I take the bus to the clinic. Therefore, parking isn't a problem for me. If you don't mind the walk, I suggest parking in Market City Shopping Center or down the road in Safeway's parking area, if you can't find a stall. They have a little area to park mopeds and motorcycles near the parking entrance. If you're taking the cab/taxi, or just waiting for your ride, there's a few benches outside to rest your feet. Since it's a clinic, expect it to be busy. They do X-rays, blood tests, urine tests, dialysis, and ultra sounds in the same building. They also have eye doctors. I think they have kids doctors as well. They have other specialists that I'm not familiar with too. It does take a while to get a room but it's worth the wait. I personally see Dr. Chen. He is very informative and knowledgeable. Also, he has a sense of humor so that helps out a lot. I always leave the clinic with a smile on my face. They updated their phone system so now there's a menu to listen to when you call. You might get put on hold for a minute or two, but they're more than happy to assist you. The staff really does try their best to serve every patient in a timely matter. Appointments aren't necessary but it's highly recommended. If you're scheduling an appointment for the same day, call as soon as possible (8:00AM.)

This review is for my experience with the Family Birth Center and the postpartum recovery center…read moreafterwards. The doctors, nurses, CNA's and other staff helped make my birth experience go as smoothly as possible. They were all professional, compassionate, and gave me 5-star worthy care. My favorite part was our celebratory meal we got to enjoy on the second night of our stay. I was fortunate enough to be on my way home after only 2 nights. The reason for deducting 1 star is because my discharge experience could've gone better. We went from 2 blissful days of feeling taken care of and pampered, to feeling like we were being rushed to move out. An older Asian lady (not sure what her role is at Kapiolani but I know she definitely wasn't a nurse) came into our room and started basically telling us it's time to get ready to go. She asked my husband where our car seat was. We explained to her, per the instructions from our RN that was last taking care of us, we were waiting for the pharmacy to call to let us know my prescription was ready, then my husband will grab the car seat on the way to the pharmacy. Then we would have someone from their staff ensure that we buckled baby in correctly, and then proceed with discharge. This lady started yapping and bossing my husband around, telling him to bring the car around up front and we'll all walk out together. She then proceeded to call the pharmacy to basically tell them to hurry up and fill my prescription. Her presence caused me unnecessary stress. We felt like we were being hurried to clear out the room. On top of that, I was not offered a wheelchair to our car. I had to walk, 2 days postpartum, freshly stitched up and sore, to our car parked in front at guest drop off. Despite this experience I'm not letting it overshadow my overall experience at Kapiolani. The nurses were so sweet and supportive and made me feel like a rock star first time mom after I gave birth to my daughter in just 11 hours. I left feedback for kapiolani and I do hope they take steps to improve their discharge process for future patients.

Kapiolani Medical Center is a non-profit hospital specializing in the care of women and children on…read morethe Hawaiian Islands. The Center had its origin thanks to its namesake, Queen Kapiolani, who started a maternity home in 1890. Kapiolani had no children of her own, but left a legacy of devotion to education and health care for women and children. The Center is comprised of a hospital with emergency room capabilities. A clinic with full time physician oversight also operates at the center. The staff at Kapiolani Medical Center is aloha friendly. My daughter had her baby at Kapiolani, where she received good prenatal and delivery care. The Center is currently fundraising to raise money to support growth. I attended parts of the fundraiser, which was a heart warming experience. The facilities are a mishmash of architectural styles mostly from the 1980's. There is modest colorful art throughout the complex. The dining room on the second floor hosts a decent cafeteria and a Starbucks. The hospital is immaculate inside. The hospital is also a teaching hospital in partnership with the medical school at the University of Hawaii. Today, I also had lunch in the Kobayashi & Kosasa Dining Room. A big bowl of soup was only $4! I had broccoli cheese soup, which was healthier than your average soup, made with noticeably less salt. I loved my soup. The cafeteria offers an interesting menu of Hawaiian traditional meals, craft pizzas, salads and more. They offer valet parking, because finding your own parking is near impossible. There is a parking garage somewhere on site, but I'm not sure where.

Back in October, I had one of the most traumatizing injuries I've ever experienced -- I was bit by…read morean eel and ended up needing 16 stitches in my foot. It was a nasty cut and the whole situation was honestly terrifying at the time. I'm a little late writing this review (it's now February), but I'm finally fully healed and I've been thinking about how grateful I am for the team at Doctors of Waikīkī. Dustin did incredible work on my stitches. The injury was pretty bad, but he handled everything with so much care and precision. You can tell he really knows what he's doing, and I felt like I was in good hands the whole time. And Tabitha truly made the experience so much better than it could have been. She brought such positive energy into a really scary moment. She kept me calm, made me laugh, and helped take my mind off how painful and overwhelming everything felt. That kind of kindness really sticks with you. The whole office had great energy and a genuinely caring team. Even though the injury itself was awful, they made the experience as good as it possibly could have been. Funny enough, if they heard what happened after I got back to Sacramento they'd probably be surprised -- and maybe a little pissed -- because a doctor here took my stitches out too early and I ended up having to let it heal as an open wound. But through it all, I'm finally fully healed now, and I'm really thankful for Dustin, Tabitha, and the whole team for helping me through the start of that journey. They turned a really scary moment into something I can actually look back on with gratitude.
