I was looking for someone to help me get through menopause naturally…read more A pharmacist recommended Laurie Steelsmith. Not only did she help me with the right hormones, but she helped with chronic pain and fatigue I've had for decades. When I caught Covid, she had the right recommendations to get me through the illness and prevent long COVID. I trust her to keep me healthy. She and my primary care doctor respect each other, so that my health is coordinated between the two. It's hard to find someone like Laurie Steelsmith. I'm glad she's here in Honolulu.

She doesn't take insurance but I don't mind since her prices are fair. I had ozone IV therapy at another clinic for $700. I didn't realize I was being ripped off until I came here and it was closer to $200 for the same service. She also listens to my concerns and lets me advocate for myself which is sadly not always the norm in healthcare. Her nurse and staff are also amazing. I would definitely recommend this place if you are interested in naturopathic care.

For the peri-, within months, the night sweats and hot flashes were under control and my adrenals stabilized. In the 8 or so months since I began seeing her, I've asked her for help with low energy, back pain, insomnia, food sensitivities. Every time, she has offered me something that gets me back on track. In addition to being exceptionally knowledgeable, Dr. Alysa is an excellent and responsive listener. She is discerning in her approach, talks to me as an equal, and clearly explains why she suggests certain treatments over others. I also appreciate that she consults with colleagues, and enjoys keeping up to date on nutrition literature and trends. Perhaps in part why Dr. Alysa always has something new for me to try, often something I'd not considered. If you are looking for someone who is adept at handling complex health problems with great intelligence and ease- look no further!

As someone on a fixed income; this MATTERS. Aloha original review: I was excited to see Dr. Lipat from her website, reviews etc. but was very disappointed when I actually saw her in person ...WHY? Because she says she is a chiropractor as well as energy healing, etc.--so I expected a more thorough evaluation and varied treatment. But after telling her I had a health challenge and was just coming off traditional treatment, wanting to get my energy back, and that my neck was out and hurting...she informed me she only does mainly 'energy healing' now. So, I lay down for her session, only to realize she was reading a form, doing vague muscle testing and going down a list I assume was for every patient. She checked what was good/not etc from that. She READ prepared affirmations then, for an hour? Then sprayed me with some Bach flower remedies. All I got out of this very $$$ (170.00) hour was a guided meditation I could have done at home. I gave her a hug and HOPED somehow she DID something. I love alternative medicine, am a retired surgeon who grew up in Hawaii and used Chinese Medicine al through College, Japanese magnets from Mom, herbs etc all my life--and energy healing too. I can FEEL energy healing and got ZERO from Dr. Lipat. So I waited 3 weeks, as she said it takes time to 'assimilate'. NOTHING. Dr. Lipat must educate herself more about my type health challenge as many of the items she said were good for me were NOT. High glycemic things, under cardiac/hormones she wrote 'hormones'--which means WHAT? Helping Foods? Many HIGH starches, glycemic foods that FEED my disease, Some of the BEST herbs were not checked at all, rec's high starches were recommended...etc etc etc. I feel, IMHO, that her personal do's and don't are imprinted to sway her testing because SO MANY of what she said were 'bad' are NOT for what I have. But common consensus says they are. (Ex: all nightshade veggies are bad) Whole grains 3/day? WTF? This FEEDS my disease! And what was good was not mentioned, what was BAD was recommended! I'm sorry--she seems like a VERY nice Human, but her treatment was a total waste for me; many of her recs would be dangerous for me, so I'll PASS here. Nothing personal; just NOT for me. At least I gave her a shot. I just was very disappointed from all the glowing reviews--she definitely has her 'fan club' on Yelp! aloha

I went to Dr. Ferrante for a hip problem after my orthopedic hip doctor wasn't helping me. She is…read morevery personable and carefully listened to my concerns, reviewed my imaging, and asked appropriate questions. We proceeded with a PRP injection, which I learned that there was actual homework/prep work for me to do BEFORE the treatment that the hip MD didn't even tell me about! Such things like stopping NSAIDs, drinking, fasting, etc. to help make the PRP injection more successful. I would not have known this if it weren't for Dr. Ferrante. The injection went smoothly and I experienced significant pain relief. I will return to do the other hip now that I know how successful it is. I know PRP injections are expensive, but definitely worth the price (insurance doesn't pay for them thru a MD anyways). She made me feel comfortable (as comfortable as you can- these injections are sore) thru out the procedure, and increased my trust by providing me with a lot of information about what to expect before/during/after, and of course following up. Of note, when I came in for a hip follow up, she noticed I had a wrist brace on, and took initiative to inquire about this new injury and brainstormed a special taping to help offload/support the area (again, something that the orthopedic PA didn't think about) which also provided more stability/less pain for my wrist. She offered another treatment option for it if occupational therapy didn't help. I highly recommend Dr. Ferrante, she takes the time to listen, thinks outside the box, keeps you well-informed, and offers effective solutions to your health concerns.

I came in for a knee injury, and Dr. Jené Ferrante was incredibly thorough, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring. She took the time to really understand what was going on with my injury instead of rushing through the appointment or just treating symptoms. That alone made such a difference. I've already started to see improvement, which feels amazing, and I appreciate how she explained everything in a way that made me feel informed and empowered in my healing process. You can tell she truly cares about treating the whole person, not just the injury. The integrative approach they use really stands out, it feels modern but also supportive of your body's natural healing, which I personally value a lot. I highly recommend Hawaii Natural Medicine if you're looking for thoughtful, personalized care and real results.

Dr. Mei-Lin is amazing!…read more In our quest for parenthood, I stumbled upon Maunakea Acupuncture. My Obgyn said to just continue trying and come back in a year if nothing happens. Me (being my impatient self) wanted to explore other possibilities. I'm still young and relatively healthy, so I was looking for a naturopathic option. She did an extensive consultation and walked me through the plan before we started acupuncture. She asked about things like my diet, lifestyle, and gave me great advice on what I should/shouldn't do. The next appointment was scheduled for acupuncture. I'm not sure if it was the timing or the stars just aligned. I immediately got pregnant after the first session! A pregnancy test confirmed it a month later on Father's Day. I saw her religiously during the first trimester and sparingly throughout my pregnancy. Based off my pulse, she was able to identify the baby's gender and confirmed we're having a boy! Now, a year later, we have a healthy and happy baby boy! I still see her once a month post partum to help my body heal. Thank you Dr. Mei-Lin! PS She also helped fix my reoccurring knee and ankle pains Thanks for reading my reviews! Let me know what I should try next!
