    I decided to give this hospital another chance since it's the one I knew was available nearby at an…read moreemergency notice and I'm really glad I did. Seeing firsthand how well they cared for their patient while I was there during the admission completely changed my perspective. The staff was attentive and professional, and it truly restored my trust and confidence in their level of care. This time I was there as a visitor instead of a patient, and I also discovered a small Starbucks corner in the waiting area past the vending machines (which unfortunately weren't working). It was such a nice surprise. They had great options, I grabbed a turkey pesto sandwich, a Smartwater, and a nutter butter and it definitely helped hold me over during the ER wait. Little comforts like that really make a difference when you're spending hours there.

    Queens West is the best. We've gone to the emergency center. They see us right away. They've always…read morebeen kind and caring. We had an emergency just a month ago and they took it seriously and I felt like we were in good hands. And then we went to the hospital Side for the first time a few days ago. The campus is beautiful, people were friendly, and the staff was helpful and directing us where we needed to go. We got the MRI that "tripler hospital" did not give my Husband. Queens gave the reading of the MRI the following day. If we weren't military, I would choose to come to this hospital for my Care.

The front staff are super friendly and the nurses & doctors are also SUPER at what they do. I believe there is also a Psychologist there. Ample parking and SAFE. Close for us people on the West side of the Island. Worth the change from the BIG VA hospital at Tripler. My doctor is so kind and compassionate that she is the, in my experience & opinion, the best the VA has to offer. Queens Medical Center, in buying this facility has done a LOT with it and there is even a coffee shop at the main entrance. Many handicap stalls and wild chickens running around to watch before your appointment. I highly recommend this hospital to anyone on the Leeward or North Shore over Wahiawa or other private hospitals. Thank you for reading this review. Mahalo nui loa my friends. ~Joey

    152/365 Its a shame that this place had to close, especially…read moreconsidering that it was probably the major hospital on the west side and with a busy ER at that. The location was very convenient as if was just right down the road from my house. Its sad that people on the west side need to wait longer to be cared for, especially in an emergency situation where they have to travel longer to pali momi or kaiser. That much time they need to travel is that much crucial to life or death. The parking here was also good since it was an open lot and you dont have to pay for parking like the other hospitals. Hopefully someone buys this place soon because the west side is a fast growing city and it will need a main hospital.

Since it was a pre-op clearance, Mely performed an EKG with a portable device she could wheel into the examination room. Next Kylie, PA actually looked into my ears, mouth and felt my stomach which my doctor has never done. She went over my blood pressure, temperature and EKG readings and told me which meds to stop taking one week prior. She sent me down to the lab for blood and urine tests after. I was happy and impressed that both ladies were both kind, thorough and very pretty plus easy to talk to. I was told if I don't get a call, that's good news and I'm cleared for surgery.

They don't sound kind , understanding or patient . They the type who just wanna get it over with and hang up the phone. They told me I needed to get a referral first and so I did. They made me go to my pcp just to get her referral only to tell me they're not accepting transferring patients and that she don't want to be held liable . So they made me waste my time driving to my pcp with morning sickness and a cold flu. Imagine having to drive back and forth feeling nauseous and tired with fever chills back pain sore throat inflammation with chest pain only to be told no! It's a Fn NIGHTMARE! All I wanted was to just go to a clinic close by me and get the medications I needed because of my cold flu! I do not recommend Dr. Roxanne Kawelo. They are inconsiderate , impatient and terrible workers. Some people just don't belong in the healthcare profession . May karma reach their families and friends.

Dr. Morton said " no more pain after the procedure". I was sold, chanc'um. After doing both hips; recovery was amazing, being in my mid 40's prolly made it easier?. Dr. Mortons staff are always on top of it helping me through my first surgery; feeling like a deer in the headlights, the staff provided great advice, options, and answers/guidance. After both surgeries, went home of about 20 steps the same day. Out of a walker in about a week with PT & personal motivation.

In November 2025, I prepaid several thousand dollars for PRP injections, but after surgery the plan changed and the doctor agreed a refund was owed for injections not received. This was never disputed. Despite that, it took about six months of repeated calls, emails, and office visits to receive the refund. I was told multiple times that the refund had been processed or mailed when it had not. I am sharing this so patients can be aware of the refund process before paying large amounts upfront. Although the Dr. blamed a bad billing company, I was always interacting with his office staff who were clearly communicating with him.

Noticed alot of older patients in the waiting room because we all start having urine retention problems as we age. Urologists make BANK! Take note, future MDs. As an authorized advocate on behalf of my parent, I was at some appointments with DR. JAMES NG for a BPH issue that causes urine incontinence. By the time they hit their 70s, up to 90% of males have BPH! Father was on oral meds first (2 kinds) but they weren't working. Doctor finally recommended surgery. My father tried his best to research (on his own! With his limited English and computer proficiency) all prostate surgeries currently performed and had an idea of the best ones. When he asked Dr. Ng about the different types, the doctor coldly brushed off dad's questions and did NOT educate or inform dad on his options. He simply said, "I do the TURP. I would recommend the TURP. We don't do those other ones here." The Pali Momi Urology website states "Our urologists approach each patient's care with both medical innovation and sensitivity....to achieve the best results while minimizing pain and recovery time. [Our] urologists offer a multidisciplinary, innovative approach...committed to collaborating with experts across all specialties in tailoring the most beneficial treatment..." Your urologists are NOT medically innovative and do NOT educate your patients on the most minimally invasive procedures if they're ONLY OFFERING THE TURP which is painful and does involve risk of internal bleeds!!! They are definitely NOT offering multidisciplinary practices committed to collaborating with doctors in other specialities. WHY? Because I did research on my own and asked about a minimally invasive procedure offered by interventional radiologists called a PAE. No bleeding, less recovery time, costs less than TURP procedures too. The radiology practice I chose stated they needed a referral from dad's urologist. Called Pali Momi last week for the referral, only to get a follow-up call today stating that Dr. Ng will NOT provide the referral because "he doesn't recommend it". Ofc Dr. Ng won't recommend it. Our business and our MONEY are going elsewhere! Okay, they don't do PAEs because they aren't radiology doctors. Then, I'd love to hear what other surgical procedures are offered, HoLAP, HoLEP or PVP lasers? PULs? The office is refusing to provide the referral, fine. Then I asked them to make a note on my father's file that Dr. Ng refused to provide a referral to the radiologist and does not recommend PAEs. The office will not make that note in his medical file. I have to be more involved in my family's medical care. I cannot imagine the number of kupuna who don't have involved progeny or aren't tech savvy themselves AND cannot effectively self-advocate and make informed decisions. Our healthcare system is skewed to benefit the practioners and the insurance companies while we, the patients and consumers stay ignorant. Let me end with a note: There need to be more reviews on medical practices and doctors on multiple platforms for consumers, or if you want to be more specific, patients. Medical care is a necessity and we the patients, or consumers, are very VERY poorly informed on our choices. We have barely any right of choice because there is limited information for us to make educated decisions on who to seek for health needs. I guess this will end our relationship with Dr. Ng moving forward. This is why some patients are fearful to openly criticize or critique doctors on this account - burning bridges. But we all only live one life and Quality Of Life is very important to me and to my family to have. We should always aim to seek the best treatment possible.
