Aiea Pediatrics

If this is where Dr. Yamaki is then all I can say about this guy is he made me feel horrible about myself, he didn’t believe that my anxiety and depression were as horrible ass they are, I have panic attack every day an night terrors all the time. I told g about it but not everything that’s was going on with me, I told him I can’t work an for the last 8 years IV tried but always had to quit due to my anxiety an depression, irr with him about 8 times, once a month, I told him Ima file for SSI an he tolde look at you, your big an look strong, but I started exsplaining to him how bad my anxiety is an my panic attacks are an he gave me some stuff called propranolol witch is blood pressure medicine an cymbolta fort depression that didn’t work at all, he got mad at me one day to because I told him I take methadone an he got pissses an said that the methadone clinic runs the show now an that he can’t really do anything for me u too I get off of it, anyways he judged me and made me feel worthless, even my wife seen they way he treated an acted to me, long story short don’t go to this doctor I o ly seen him is because I had united Heath care quest an it was almost impossible for me to find a doctor, luckily I switched to HSMA Quest an found an awesome doctor that I trust an he’s helping me with my SSI and my medications he’s giving me is helping a lot better I still can’t be around crowds an some times wanna kill misled but it’s way better then before. Anyways don’t see this dr. Yamaki trust me all the reviews I seen were horrible on him.

ZERO star!!! I’m glad my sister switched her three kids to another pediatrician but this doctor is arrogant not to mention the staff is rude. Specially the front desk. I went with my sister when she took her daughter and the lady infront was so rude and more concerned about chatting with her co workers… Don’t take your kids here, you’ll just get annoyed. I was so upset I had to call her out.

If I could give ZERO it would be!
I’ve had the worst experience for the first time with a pediatrician. Very dishonest practice he runs along with his staff. I first scheduled my kids first appt with this doctor as we was in our area and had advised the appt setter that I had 4 kids for annual checkups. She scheduled us on 11÷16÷13, wrote it on an appt card and gave it to me.
I take my kids in on ¹¹⁄₁₆ and they tell me that I wont be seen because I missed my appt on ¹¹⁄₀₉. What!!! She wrote it on the appt card and gave it to me (thank God I still had the appt card)! Of course, I argued my case and gave them the appt card and insisted that we be seen as I had to take off that day to take kids in.
OMG! so that was the first incident — next they send me bills for my kids that were billed incorrectly and it took me months to get it correct because apparently their biller (Sheri) comes in to office when she wants and every time I call for her they tell you she’s not there and they dont know when she comes in. «She comes in when she comes in» is what they tell me. And when I finally think things are taken care of I get another bill because now my insurance wont pay because my 4yr old wasnt 4 yrs old at the time of well child checkup. Which I had stressed out to the appt setter when I scheduled appt and with the DR himself on the day of checkup that he was NOT 4 until another 3 weeks. They both tell me its okay! Now they bill me because my ins wont pay for it and they tell me they cant do anything — even though they told me it was OK. Dishonest people at this office including the DR himself! I hope these people can sleep at night knowing they cheat people and only see money when people walk in! This DR does this for money not for the right reasons! Dont make the mistake of taking your children here! They wont try to make things right even when it is their to mistake to fix it!
Filed complaint with BBB and pursuing further action!

My son came to Dr. Tamamoto as a newborn and I couldn’t be happier. He visited me in the hospital twice before we were discharged. He genuinely cares for the patients. He respectfully listened to me and my husband about any concerns and have happily answered all of our questions. Our son was diagnosed with Influenza and hospitalized when he was 1 and Dr. Tamamoto called me that night we got admitted to make sure we were okay and to let us know what would be expected during our stay in the hospital. He came to see us the next day and checked up on him until we were later discharged. Referrals, medications, appointments have never been a problem. I’m honestly really bothered by the first reviewer. Dr. Tamamoto isn’t capable of being the kind of person she is describing. I have referred at least 2 friends to Dr. Tamamoto and they all agree how incredibly happy they are to have found him. We moved a year ago and I am so saddened that I have not found a doctor like him.

Worst doctor ever. Rude, pompous, disrespectful, and disgusting bed side manner. I would not recommend this doctor.
