This was hands down the worst experience I've ever had…read more My original appointment had to be rescheduled because they didn't have the right ultrasound tech. Frustrating, but I was understanding. When I returned for the rescheduled appointment, I was running late (my fault), but after trying to call three times to explain I was stuck in traffic, I was met with attitude. Not exactly the welcome you hope for when already stressed. The ultrasound itself was awful. This was my first ultrasound with this baby -- a huge, emotional moment -- and the tech made it miserable. Instead of showing me anything, she made me lie back and stare at the ceiling for nearly 10 minutes without a word. When I sat up, desperate just to glimpse the screen, she told me to lie down and stop. I explained how excited I was, hoping she'd show some warmth. She didn't. No reassurance, no kindness. I laid there crying -- twice -- and she still said nothing. It was heartbreaking. To make it worse, my husband wasn't allowed in because we had our daughter with us (who would've quietly sat on his lap). I understand policies, but this was an incredibly important family moment that deserved more compassion. Compared to my previous pregnancies, this experience was night and day. Other places tell you measurements, heartbeat details, and make it exciting. Here, I wasn't told anything until the very end -- just a quick glimpse of the baby's head, body, and legs. That was it. I didn't even get the information I went in for, to confirm how far along I was. If you have a choice, go somewhere else. I highly recommend LIV -- they are kind, allow children, and make expecting families feel truly cared for. That's what every mother-to-be deserves. In short: I expected a warm, special experience seeing my baby for the first time. Instead, I was ignored, dismissed, and left devastated with no information about my baby.

The follow-up communication was not very good and I was left confused about why they were insisting on additional treatment that I had not requested. My impression was that they were trying to "milk" my insurance provider for everything they could get. I canceled a further follow-up appointment. They then sent me a registered letter that was somewhat threatening that I was endangering my health by not allowing them to treat me. I did send them a response letter in which I agreed to one additional visit so that they could review what had been done. I specified how I wished to be contacted but, after several weeks, they have not responded.

My last clinic was the premier clinic on Oahu and I did not get nearly the same attention and personal care as I received here. So far I would say I highly recommend them.

He put a moleskin bunion protector on one but said it was fine. When I asked him about the toes, he said he doesn't "do that." My husband has very bad, chronic toenail fungus and was sent to Dr. Sugar as well. He looked at them from a distance and also told my husband he didn't "do" fungus. He motioned to the room around him and said "too much dust." That was the whole appointment, but he gave my husband another appointment. He asked for what, and they didn't know! We cancelled. He is very soft spoken and barely uses his fingertips to touch your feet, like he doesn't want to. I'm not angry, but I'm not sure what he DOES do for these very common problems. I thought it was just me until my husband went. I shed him what he thought and he just said, "Strange. Weirdest appointment ever." I'm glad he's there for the cases he selects to treat, but if you have a fungus, SKEEP! The office staff is very good and professional.
