They call me to make sure xrays and MRI were done or needed to reschedule my dtrs appt time. They were very persistent making sure I got the messages. When we got in, the staff greeted us with a smile and checked us in. Filled out paperworks amd turned it in. Literally sat in waiting room for 5 mins and we got called in. I was impressed knowing that Dr Ignacio is a busy woman (I researched her online and found out she participates/belongs in various groups). Dr Ignacio appears to be a very happy person. I mean she smiled the whole visit. I could tell it in her voice that this doctor is the one!! I love the way she dresses and presents herself. She was very professional and she assured my daughter that everything will be okay. Anyway to make a long story short, my daughter needs surgery. It broke my heart when my dtr cried because she is not able to cheer for 7-8mos. Dr Ignacio was apologetic in breaking the news to her but reassured her she will get back on her feet and resume her activities. Her MA, Johnna was also caring in helping us set up appts for preop and postop. When asked about fmla papers and workslip, Johnna said to bring it in or fax and she will get all paperwork filled out. If I had any questions, not to hesistate and call her. I really feel like we will be taken care of well here. I really recommend this place to anyone.

Rude, arrogant, condescending, and disrespectful. Need I say more? Perhaps not, but I will…read more I went to him first years ago, because the insides of my knees hurt. I was diagnosed with end-stage (bone on bone) osteoarthritis in both knees. I was told I would need to have both knees replaced but to hold out as long as possible since the technology was getting better and better, so replacements were lasting longer. I was stunned. However, I was left alone in the room with my thoughts. I wasn't given any guidance or literature so I didn't know what to expect or do. Osteoarthritis is degenerative. Several years after being diagnosed, I decided it was time to have my knees replaced. Dr. Harpstrite flatly and bluntly refused to do so until I lost weight. See, the thing is, I'd been heavy the entire time I'd been seeing him. It wasn't as though I had suddenly gained a lot of weight. Yet Dr. Harpstrite never mentioned this critically important point before. I explained that I'd always had a weight problem, and had been on several diets. Some had worked, some had not. But movement was a key tool in keeping my weight under control. As the pain increased, I was less able to move, so I was slowly gaining weight. But Dr. Harpstrite refused to provide any pain relief so i could move - no cortisone, no medication, no nerve ablation, no surgery - nothing. He would prescribe physical therapy if I asked for it, and I did. PT was awesome, but it didn't help, because my knees were too far gone. He'd had no problem giving me cortisone for trigger finger or my left shoulder, but would not do so for my knees. I went on a low-carb diet and lost enough weight until I was about 20 lbs. from my goal. I was taking Pilates once a week, and water exercise 2-3 times per week. But then unfortunately my body rebelled. Nothing I did would restart the weight loss. It was awful and demoralizing. Fast-forward to December 2019. It had become harder and harder to walk. I was exhausted as the pain did not allow me to sleep soundly. Due to allergies, I could take only acetaminophen, which only took the edge off. I made one final plea to Dr. Harpstrite. He was not pleased. He basically trapped me where I was sitting and went over the research that contraindicated knee replacement for people over a certain weight. I just could not seem to get him to understand that I needed to move to control my weight, but I couldn't because of the pain. He would not provide pain relief. His solution? Get bariatric surgery, then he'd replace my knees when I lost enough weight. I did not and do not want bariatric surgery. It is not the panacea it is made out to be. Because of this, I feel I was labeled in my file as being defiant, and not truly wanting to lose weight. Neither of these things are true. I just don't want bariatric surgery. After Dr. Harpstrite completed his angry lecture, he stormed out of the room. I left and will never go back. In early 2021 I found a wonderful new orthopedic surgeon who is (thankfully) the polar opposite of Dr. Harpstrite. In nine months, my life is now totally different. I'm so glad I found him. If you want to know who it is, look through my 2021 reviews. For some reason, I had blinders on with Dr. Harpstrite. I kept thinking he'd eventually understand and help me. I finally realized he never would.

With the results, the next step was an appointment with the orthopedic surgeon. Scheduling the appointment caught me off guard. I inquired on the first available appointment as my injury was in early-July. Sunday was offered. A doctor who works on Sundays? I took it. Then, a little over a week prior to the appointment I received another phone call from the doctor's office asking to move up my appointment from the afternoon to mid morning on that Sunday. This worked better for me as I was anxious to the results of my injury and what direction to take. Because it was a Sunday, I opted for street parking and walked to Hale Pawa'a. I arrived 20min prior to my appointment as I anticipated forms to complete. To my surprise, I arrived to his office in suite 110 but was advised to check in across the hall at All Access Ortho (AAO) in suite 102. Because my information is already with AAO, check in process was quick with only one sheet to complete, requesting me to document my current status since my injury. I then returned to suite 110 with my completed form. I didn't even sit down for 5min and my name was called. The staff escorted me to an examination room and in less than 5min Dr. Kan entered. I found Dr. Kan to be very personable and informative. He explained my situation where I understood. He broke things down where facts were stated and what action to take. I was dreading the thought of surgery but it is what it is. I want full mobility of my left arm and when advised this is a common procedure with a high success rate. With physical therapy post surgery, I was advised I'll be back to normal. With that explanation, I trust Dr. Kan and I agreed. I now await the approval of the insurance company before I can schedule this procedure. Overall, a positive first experience and now feel better knowing of my current condition and what steps are needed for recovery. I'll admit there's a part of me that's concerned but I need to trust the professional. Dr. Kan and his staff extended me with great customer service and care where this business is worthy of a 5-star rating.

At the initial appointment, Dr Kan went over a thorough explanation of my injury, what he would do to fix it, how long the procedure would take, and what to do after the procedure. All in under 10 minutes, and that included my questions. I was pre-registered the week before the appointment. I mean, they disbursed the medication I would need the WEEK before so no need to go to the pharmacy while disoriented from anesthesia. On the day of, everyone checked in on the ipad, and I pre-paid before the procedure. Prepping was done super fast and I didn't wait long for anything. I elected to sleep rather than hear the "crunching sounds" from the procedure (didn't sound pleasant). After sleeping an hour or so, one of the nurses woke me up and called my sister for pickup. The day after, my shoulder felt better than it had in months. Would definitely recommend Dr Kan and his team to anyone!
