The most upsetting part is how bad the actual dentist, Dr. Kyle Wright is. When I was referred to a specialist, the doctor noted the WRONG tooth! In addition, he is heavy handed and seemed still inexperienced. I was in pain and left worse than when I came in for an appointment.

I was 7 months pregnant and had a bad tooth that needed to be extracted. He took extra care of me and even called me that night to see how i was doing. He's super friendly and makes you feel comfortable every time whether it's just cleaning or root canal. He makes all your KID DAYS worry and bad feelings about going to the Dentist all go away. 1 visit and my husband switched over from his 10+years dentist he use to go to, to Dwight Inouye!! Feli is his right hand assistant. You would think they related the way they talk or rather Dr Inouye Yells for her "Feliiii" But honestly i think he's like me "We Deaf, so we talk louder than the norm". Shirley who use to be at the front desk is no longer there, she was the most sweetest greeter when you enter the office. Her calm sweet voice made you feel so at ease and welcomed every time.

The bridge doesn't feel comfortable or natural in my mouth. It feels bulky and slightly off in alignment, and it also affected my confidence when smiling or talking to others. It's almost a year I feel like I don't wanna smile anymore. Given the time, trust, and financial investment I made in this procedure, I expected a result that would both look and feel like a natural part of my smile. I don't want to be disrespectful in any way.

Recently visited Dr. Leong for the first time to get a second opinion on a root canal. From the…read moremoment I walked in, everyone there was very friendly and helpful. Dr. Leong made me feel comfortable right away and explained everything very clearly so I could understand my options. I've been to many different dentists here on the island, but I can honestly say he's the best dentist I've seen. A lot of dentists make you feel like they only care about the money, but Dr. Leong truly listened to my concerns and took the time to make sure I felt comfortable throughout the treatment. His assistant, Trisha, was also amazing while assisting him during my procedure. The whole experience felt very reassuring and professional. Thank you to Dr. Leong and the team for making what could have been a stressful visit such a comfortable one.

Really nice and engaging guy, got to know him and his wife, who is also a dental hygentist, throughout these years. If you have HMSA, you're eligible for teeth cleaning twice a year so I see him about every 6 months. This morning I had my regular x-ray and cleaning, his other assistant was helping him out today, she's really nice too. Because of covid, he spaces his patients out an hour apart, and if they are sick or feeling any type of symptoms, to just hold off on your appointment and reschedule, which is great because the only people you come in contact with is him and his assistant. Dr also gives me new toothbrush and all the good stuff upon departure. I've also learned that he's a private pilot and we talk about flying since that's the industry I'm in!

Well, for as long as I've been a patient of Dr. Suzuki and for each visit, they take my blood pressure, ask you all the health questions and provide me with PPE (eye covering) during each visit. While I've not been to many dentists throughout my life, Dr. Suzuki is the only dentist who does the health check. Her staff, front office, dental hygienists and assistants are great; personable, helpful and kind. Appointments for regular teeth cleaning is made before you leave your appointment. If there is any dental work needed, they have a network of specialty dentists they refer you to. If you have a dental emergency, Dr. Suzuki is readily available. Located in the Kuakini Medical Center, parking is never a problem. The office validates your parking stub but there remains a small fee at the toll booth. I'm not sure if Dr. Suzuki takes new patients. If she does and you're in need of a dentist, she's your girl

I grew up going here and I have been going here for quite some time. This place has had my…read moreinformation since forever, so coming back here is always nostalgic for me. They definitely have expanded over the years and they've always expanded into other areas of medical treatment and I am absolutely here for it!!! I really love that they have expanded into optometry, mental health/therapy and even though I miss P&P (if you from Kalihi/KPT/KAM4, you know), I'm glad they took over that area and made it part of KKV. The growth of KKV with its expansion in multiple medical areas and it's extension to create more space for such things, I feel has done wonders for the community; especially with the fact that it's catering to an area where the demographic is statistically heavily populated with impoverished housing. The staff here is always helpful and respectful, even towards irate patients. I feel that because some of the old workers here have been here for years, the familiarity is very comforting with old timers (I speak of people who've been patients here for years) and they help the newbies learn how to help us and each other. Another thing I love about this clinic, is because they provide services to wide a demographic and folks that come from all walks of life, they translate a lot of their procedures/instructions, in different languages which I believe is a huuuuge difference from other clinics and helps people to find the answers they need to get the help they want/need. DURING COVID PANDEMIC: They have altered their clinic in ways where you can tell they have taken every precaution possible to enforce social distancing and prevent the spread of COVID-19. Their alterations in turning their bottom parking garage into a lobby that has social distancing measures is absolutely pleasing to my eye and well, to my heart. It shows to me, that they really care about the safety of themselves and others They offer tele-health appointments for mental health appointments and even medical appointments, I believe anything requiring you to be physically seen at the clinic they will offer their services to the extent of the patient making an appointment and following whatever procedures and or protocols they've instilled for the safety of the clinic workers as well as the patient themselves.
