Pediatric Care

Wow! Were we lucky to find this office! We recently moved to Hawaii from Chicago and found this doctors office based on a recommendation from another mom I met during our last visit to Oahu. When I initially called to see if they were accepting new patients, the receptionist was so sweet and helpful. They just let us know to bring his medical records with us when we arrived and we’d be good to go. We arrived 3 weeks ago and hadn’t had a chance to drop them off yet, but my son was sick yesterday and I needed an appointment. But it was Saturday. Uh oh. Maybe we should just go to the ER? Nah… I’ll give them a call and see if they’re open. And they were! They are open both Saturday AND Sunday! And even though I’d never been there before and I was calling that morning, they still managed to get me in to see the doctor. And the receptionist couldn’t have been sweeter! When I explained what was going on with my son, she said, «Awww…poor little guy!» Empathy – thank you!
We arrived at our scheduled appt and the office was nice and clean. There were a few toys for our little guy to play with while he waited his turn and they had so many adorable pictures up of their patients. The nurse was super sweet with him while getting his stats. And then we saw Dr. Bob Anderson. What a great doctor! We absolutely loved our doctor in Chicago so I was nervous about finding someone new… but he was wonderful. He was calm and took the time to explain to us exactly what was going on and how to deal with it. He ended up sending us to the ER in Kapi’olani since our son needed some breathing treatments. But we had a follow up with him today and were just as pleased with the office visit again today. I am so thrilled we found him and this office and I feel so good about taking our son here.
A list of positives…
Friendly and knowledgeable staff.
Open 7 days a week.
They have an «advice hour» scheduled from 4:40 — 5:30 pm that is reserved so the doctor can call any patients that are in need of assistance.
They have an after hours doctor exchange with a doctor available by phone when the office is closed.
Smaller office makes the visit feel a little more intimate and less like your child is just a number.
