    Small businesses helping each other out in Honolulu, Hawaii... Thank you to Kim Orthodontics for the generous gift card for Island Soul Shave Ice... a Hot New small business in Kalihi, Honolulu, Hawaii! Irene M. and I both won gift cards via an Instagram Contest. We were asked to come to the office at the Ala Moana Building to pick up the cards. We parked for free at Ala Moana Center, went up the elevator, and found the office! Gosh... they have a terrific view of Honolulu! Patients get to sit in comfy recliners and look at the spectacular sight! Whoa! The staff are super cheerful and sweet! I'd like to be a patient here! It's so clean and bright! Thank you so much, Dr. Kim, for supporting a local, family business! That's so kind of you!

    Quality genuine smiles... Mahalo to Kim Orthodontics for an experience like no other as they were doing a give away along with Island Soul Shaved Ice which is a hot brand new family operated and owned small biz known for their create your own crafted shaved ice which is a perfect start for this summer season. Walking in I immediately noticed how bright and beautiful the whole room is and I'm not just talking about the incredible view they share with their patients which are lucky to enjoy but the staff that are so gracious and friendly to greet us upon entering...yup us Nadine C and I both are winners! Kim Orthodontics had an Instagram contest collaboration with Island Soul Shaved Ice and learned that I won after receiving a very organized message of how to collect our prize which was a thrill not to just collect but to see this amazing biz...so much so that I wanted to be a patient but is just for orthodontics unfortunately. Thank you to Dr. Kim and his staff who was so wonderful and welcoming as we took pics to capture this moment and gave us all huge smiles and shaved ice! Thank you!

    Severely overbooked. Expect long wait times and very limited availability for appointments…read more After 2 years and 10 months of wearing braces, the day to remove them finally came for my daughter today. We had already gone in 2 months earlier for a check up to ensure she was ready for removal. But for some reason it was only on the day of removal that Dr. Morita noticed a GAP between the canine teeth. He proceeded to tell my daughter that her teeth were smaller than normal, which caused the gap. WHAT? I'm no expert, but I'm pretty sure her teeth have been the same size throughout the 3 years! Prior to the removal appointment, I had already decided to change orthodontists so we proceeded with the removal. I requested Dr. Morita to call me as I wanted to get further clarification as to why the gap was not identified earlier. I also wanted to personally linform him of my reasons for leaving his practice. Instead of calling me (is it too much to ask for 5 minutes?)....he sent me an email and offered to put the braces back on. WHAT? I had planned to leave his practice quietly, but his lack of taking accountability is unacceptable. Advice to all - Choose your orthodontist wisely....it is a LONG and expensive commitment.

    I was recommended by my GD (Ha'iaka Dental Studio) to Morita Ortho for treatment. From the start,…read moreDr. Morita and his staff were very thorough and honest about the whole process. I chose braces for my treatment, and they explained that it would take some time to adjust in the beginning. During my first month, I called once or twice because I was getting cold sores. Even though it wasn't an emergency and was just my mouth adjusting to the wires, they still made time to fit me into their busy schedule and reassured me everything was fine. That extra care really stood out to me. They didn't have to bring me in, but since day one they've gone above and beyond to make sure I felt comfortable. Now I'm four months into treatment with no cold sores, no wire issues, and no complications at all. I've been to both their Aiea and Honolulu locations, and the service has been excellent at each. 10/10 recommend!

    IF I CAN GIVE MORE THAN 5 STAR, THEY DESERVE 10 STARS!!…read more ((English and 日本語version 英語の文章の後に、日本語の説明がございますので、日本人の方はぜひ画面をスクロールして、日本語のレビューを読んでいただけるとうれしいです!!)) ~This review is not fake or over exaggerated. Also I am not hired by anybody by writing this review. Some people might think sounds too extremely great and good to be true However... Everything here is based on real experiences. Please enjoyed reading my amazing experiences with dr Tammy and team! Before writing this review, I would like to share something important. Over the past 10 years, Dr. Tammy Chang has done more for me than I could ever fully express in words. Even with so many patients, she always takes the time to truly see each individual and treat them with genuine care and compassion. There were times in my life when I was going through very difficult periods. During those moments, visiting her clinic was never just a routine appointment. Her words and the way she treated me were never superficial--they were sincere and heartfelt. Every time I left, I felt encouraged, thinking, "I'll do my best until the next time I come back." She gave me hope exactly when I needed it most. Not only did my smile become more beautiful, but I also remember how my emotional well-being gradually improved throughout the orthodontic process, almost as if my mind was being aligned along with my teeth. Some people might feel that sharing something like this is too much. But I truly felt that her kindness came from a genuine place. In the end, she didn't just improve my smile--she helped restore my emotional strength as well. After my recent visit, I felt a strong desire to do something for her, so I asked if I could write this review. Although she is very humble and had never asked patients for reviews before, I could clearly feel how much it meant to her. That is exactly why I decided to write this. Everything here is based on real experiences--my own and those of people I know who have also been treated by her. This is not for marketing, but simply to share the truth. I have been a patient of Dr. Tammy Chang for many years, and I can say with complete confidence that she is not only an exceptional orthodontist, but also an extraordinary human being and leader. What truly sets her apart is her deep compassion. She treats every patient with kindness and respect, and I have never met a doctor with such a warm heart. You can feel this the moment you walk into the office. The front desk team greets you with genuine smiles, creating a warmth I have never experienced in any other clinic. You can also sense how much the staff trust and appreciate her. The entire clinic is filled with positivity. The interactions between staff and patients are so warm that it almost doesn't feel like a medical office--you simply feel happy being there. Even after not visiting for nearly five years, when I returned, each staff member came up to me personally to greet me and reconnect. That level of care is truly rare. In today's world, many clinics rely on marketing and social media, but Dr. Tammy's clinic is different. Her practice is built on trust, real quality, and genuine care--patients naturally refer others. That is exactly how I found her, and why I now recommend her with complete confidence. Dr. Tammy truly deserves to be recognized at the highest level. Thank you Dr and stuffs member! Arigatou! 《日本語バージョン》 } Dear Dr. Tammy, I hope you are doing well. I wanted to share something from my heart. 私は10年以上、Dr. Tammy Changの患者としてお世話になっています。 彼女は矯正歯科医として優れているだけでなく、人として本当に温かく、思いやりのある方です。 人生の中で辛い時期にも、彼女の言葉や存在に何度も支えられてきました。 歯並びが整っただけでなく、気持ちの面でも前向きに変わっていったことを強く実感しています。 クリニックの雰囲気もとても温かく、スタッフの皆さんも優しく、安心して通うことができる場所です。 今の時代、多くの場所がマーケティングに頼る中で、彼女のクリニックは「信頼」で成り立っていると感じます。 だからこそ、私は心から自信を持って彼女をおすすめします。 Thank you for everything.

I was already planning to commit, but didn't feel any type of genuine connection as a patient/client on behalf of the sales team. I did sign. But, having committed to spending thousands of dollars you would think that they would have set me up for success.. only to find out the day I get fitted for my retainers, "Oh, we don't have the digital monitoring attachment for iPhone 17 pro max. We will call you to pick that up when we get the attachment...." Like, shouldn't you have asked what kind of phone I had before? They said the attachment would come in a week, and they would give me a call when it becomes available so I can pick it up. I waited a week.. a month... I am now on week 13 out of 26 and they send me a text asking why I haven't started my digital monitoring...? OH, with the attachment that you never bothered to call me to pick up? Um, hello... I was waiting for a call back. If that wasn't bad enough.. They sent me a "referral" by text message to get my wisdom teeth removed.. I was very nervous to do the removal, and if my nerves weren't already firing, I found out the day of surgery that Holiday Orthodontics Pearl City never even sent a referral stating which teeth should be removed, or anything at all for that matter. Super unprofessional. Super irritating. Super offended as a customer who trusted them with my smile. I am happy with the results of my retainers, but wish I could have filled the pockets of an Orthodontist that actually cares about their patients. Now I'm stuck making installments to these guys. Unreal.

The next business day, the receptionist called me back to schedule an appointment with Dr. Kitamura. I recently went last week to my appointment. As soon as i walked into the office the two receptionist looked up and greeted me with a smile. They gave me paperwork to fill out. As soon as i was done, a dental assistant came out to get me. She asked questions about my permanent retainer and wanted to see it. The Doctor then came out to check it out. They gave me the price to put the retainer back in. Which was a lot however i needed to get it done so i paid for it anyways. As the dental assistant put the retainer back in, she was awesome. She explained exactly what she was about to do. Due to me having braces in High School and having a bad experience i ain't going to lie i was scared! She talked to me and made me feel a lot better when she explained everything. Thank you for such a awesome experience! I was a little bummed that i checked in, but i forgot to get my free gift.

Everything went by…read morefast and smoothly, however when I felt like something was wrong or off, I was dismissed or they did it their way instead of really fixing it. I dont really give out reviews unless I find it necessary. That said, I only do so when it's bad service. When I told them it felt off, the doctor fixed it on the OPPOSITE side of where I told them, which wouldn't be a problem, but when they fixed it on the right side, it added up so ultimately it still had the same issue. Not only that, the person who was taking care of me [i didn't get her name] pinched my lip pretty hard between the braces wire and the brackets. When I reacted the first time, it hurt pretty bad. I was still a little worried when she did it again, because she pinched it a few times and it stung a bit while she put it on, I flinched. She seemed kind of annoyed at that. I felt uncared for and like they didn't care about my comfort and needs. Now I look at it, it's really uncomfortable to "rest" my mouth to look normal, and when I actually rest it the "build up" is what they called it, forces my mouth to look crooked due to uneven amounts on each side. It's slightly unclear in the photos, but it's more clear if I had gotten them from the same angle. Other than that normally it's better service, so hopefully it'll get better again with time with this new doctor, but I'm not a fan of it so far.
