They're all very personable, sweet, and real. They don't keep secrets and keep your treatment up front. With something as fairly new as ketamine for chronic pain, it's been a challenge to first determine if it is right for me, then determine if I would place this risky care into the hands of someone I can trust. This is definitely that office for me.

Ketamine Infusion for chronic and severe complex pain! Ketamine Clinics of Hawaii Dr Michael…read moreAnthony Pasquale basically saved my life! I'll explain how, i had been suffering from severe chronic pain to my lower back, neck as well as left ankle this pain after seeing every specialist in Sydney Australia which is where i am from all I was told was that my pain symptoms are too complex and the only treatment they could offer me was Opiods(Narcotic) painkillers, which i began to take everyday this i did for about over 5 years with some degree of success! However one day in late August 2017 i just woke up with this crazy all i can call is Suicidal 10/10 pain to my neck, back and left ankle just like as if a sharp knife was being stabbed into my back! I imeadiatly went to my spinal surgeon who right away trasfered me to a private pain clinic in a majoer hospital, There they just continued to dose me up with more oxycontin doubble what i was taking then endone a faster acting opiod as well as a few Morphine shots all to no avail i was in so much pain i just wanted to die like jump out the window or something my quality of life was zero and i was desperate! So thats when i decided to seek my own reseach on this kind of pain and any treatments as my body had just come to a stage where it just would not accept any more pain meddication. During this research i fortunately came accross Dr Micheal Pasquale clinic and read that he was using this cutting edge pain management treatment called Ketamine Ifusion treatment for pain that no longer reponds to opiods! I was so desperate that i rand them and Dr Pasquale immeadiately agreed to treat me. So the following day I was on a plane fron Sydney to Honolulu for this treatment! Basically i can say that Dr Pasquale saved my life as when i got there and prior to strating the treatment i literally was suicidal not because i was deppressed but just because of my constant unbearable chronic pain! So what happened i started the treatment for the first two days enjoying the 4hour treatment experience however a few hours afterwards my pain would come back although not as bad b may 7/10. However after the third days treatment that was it my pain levels had dropped to just 2-3/10 and also I was able to half my high dose intake of the oxycontin from 320mgs a day to just 160mgs a day and then everyday just got better and better! My treatment was suppose to be fo 7 days but I decided to extend it by 3 more to ten! It was truly a miracle treatment on the internet it explains that Ketamine is whats called a dissasocative. Anasthetic so how it works to my understanding is that it during those 4 hour everyday disconnect the body from the brain and help the body and brain to forget all those chronic pain pathways that it has created. Anyway thats my understanding of it! The one thing is that there is no guarantee has to how long the treatment will last it could be 6 months or a year or indefinately this treament reacts differently to each person! But i believe or would much prefer to go and have this pleasent Ketamine Infusion treatment one a year even if I have to fly halfway around the world to have it instead of being addicted to morphine and opiods which come with all its side effects! I sincerely reccomend seeing the team at Ketamine Clinics of Hawaii Dr Anthony Michael Pasquale to treat you if yiu too are suffering fron severe pain Ketamine really works! Kind Regards, Daniel.C

Our experience with Dr. Nabours has been very disappointing. At our initial 15-minute consult in…read moreearly September, we explained that our daughter is medically complex and asked whether she felt comfortable taking on her case. She encouraged us to book a full appointment, so we did. We then had a 90-minute appointment that consisted mostly of discussing our daughter's medical history and current health issues, but no treatment plan or concrete recommendations were provided. The only action taken was ordering a blood draw. It took a full week just to receive the requisition form, something our other doctors always provide the same or next day. When the requisition finally arrived, we noticed tests were ordered that we had specifically said were not needed (such as cortisol and thyroid panels), because our daughter's endocrinologist regularly monitors those. After the blood draw, communication essentially stopped. We emailed a week later asking if results had been received and also asked for guidance ordering a stool test, mentioning that we wanted to schedule our next appointment once that was done and also mentioning that our daughter isn't doing well. We never received any reply. Even after blood results were available and uploaded in our patient portal, there was no follow-up, and no review of the findings, even though there were some abnormal blood markers. The office simply never contacted us again. Given the lack of communication, lack of guidance, and absence of a treatment plan, we cannot recommend this provider. We felt our daughter was ultimately abandoned without any follow-through despite her not feeling well and our attempt to move forward with care.

After 3 weeks of back and forth phone calls with his office I was turned away. His office worker Mimi was confused , rude and unprofessional and would not give me an appointment. No compassion or empathy from her at all ! Mimi was a bully and talked over me many times repeating herself. After all of this Mimi told me that Dr Obana looked at my MRI and said that my condition was not his specialty and he could not really help me. It would have been more valid to hear that from Dr Obana ! If this was really true I have the feeling Dr Obana would have called me and referred me to a doctor that would help me ! That would have been the honorable and professional thing to do. Dr Obana's bio says that his specialty is cervical and lumbar spinal surgery with 38 years of experience ! I don't believe what his office worker Mimi had to say. Unfortunately I never got the opportunity to speak with the doctor. I was basically denied that by the office staff !

Doctor Obana came highly recommended and was the most easy going and straight forward of all the surgeons I met.

I have fully recovered and will forever be grateful to Dr. Obana.

About 13 years ago, I started having pain, instability, and even locking of my knees during and…read moreafter playing golf, hiking, running stair climbing exercises, and aerobics classes. At the time, I rarely saw my PCP more than once a year, but I gave in to making an appointment to get a referral with an orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Jay Marumoto. After having X-rays and an MRI of my knees, it was determined that I had developed meniscus tears and was a candidate for bilateral arthroscopic meniscus repair. Before the surgery, Dr. Marumoto said he expected me to recover and return to my daily activities quickly because of my fitness level and age. So, I had meniscus repairs done on both knees at the same time while I was actively in the workforce and recovered quickly within several months. However, he also warned me that I'd probably have to return in about 15 years as he could see the beginnings of osteoarthritis and knee replacement could be in my future. Well, I returned within 15 years to Dr. Marumoto, who honestly told me that deciding when to have surgery is up to me. He didn't pressure me into having surgery, and luckily, my pain level is still very low, manageable through exercise, and I've been keeping up my fitness level for faster recovery. I can see myself having the more invasive knee replacement surgeries soon but have several upcoming trips planned up through mid-2025, so I chose to delay surgery and go through a series of physical therapy for further knee functional strengthening or "prehab" at JACO Rehab. I like Dr. Marumoto's candid approach and attention to detail. He identified the health issue(s) and explained effective treatments. He also described expected results and recovery but pointed out the possible risks, as with any surgery. Now, I wish I had followed my parents' advice about swimming for health benefits instead of focusing on land-based activities, which have exacerbated my knee joints' osteoarthritis.

I wanted to make sure I had the right Dr and nursing staff that is gonna be helping me through my surgery process before, during and after. I did my research and asked a lot of people who's a good orthopedic surgeon. Everyone and I mean everyone told me bout Dr Marumoto. No joke this guy did a lot of my friends surgeries along with my friends parents surgeries and even my coworkers. I was already wowed with everyone's answer. During my first visit he told me straight up by just looking at my MRI that if I don't fix this shoulder problem by doing surgery that it'll only get worse. He also said it's a free country and I don't need to get this surgery too. He may seem a bit forward and intimidating but he's straight to the point and I like how he didn't sugar coat anything. During my surgery appointment there was an incident that happened that they had to cancel my surgery appointment. I was like oh no I gotta wait another 2 weeks but the staff was nice to reschedule it the next day after they fixed the problem. One day wait no problem for me. The Dr and his staff had no control over the problem at the hospital for cancelling my surgery appt anyway. I would wait however long as long the surgery was to be successful. During my surgery process all the nurses and staff explained everything and answered all my questions professionally. Now the after surgery process. Rhealyn has been my best friend during the after surgery process. She been answering everything everytime I would call or leave a message. I would call everyday the first week and every other day the second week. Sorry Rhealyn I know I can be a handful lol. So I'm gonna end this review where if you need an orthopedic surgeon I advise you to do your research or ask around I'm sure someone's gonna mention Dr Marumoto. He's been in this for 30+ years and his nursing staff is top notch too. Y'all will thank me later.

They're fine but if you're looking for a holistic doctor, I'd recommend Dr Pritam Tapryal. This would be a 5 star review but it's hard when the western medicinal docs are in the room recommending western options and you constantly have to explain that's not what you want. It makes your whole experience kind of annoying. I prefer him only for now or at least until they've fully embraced holistic medicine. At this point they still recommend western options and that's not why I go to this office.
