Loui Shelley Akemi MD

I love Dr. Loui and her staff (especially aunty Jeni!).
Dr. Loui has been our family pediatrician for almost a decade. I love her, but more importantly… my kiddos love her. She is kind and patient and takes time to explain and answer all questions we have (which were a LOT of questions as new parents years ago).
Dr. Loui also has three little ones of her own, so she understands how impatient kids can be, and tries to keep them entertained and engaged in the appointment as well. You may have to wait, but that’s only because she provides quality time and focuses on each patient at the time of their appointment — **plus — we have to walk from the new parking structure and wait for the sloooooow elevator in the physician’s office building — so not all the time was waiting in her office.
We don’t mind — and I could not ask for a better pediatrician for my two kiddos.

I called to see if she is accepting new patients. Was told no… She was only accepting new mother’s to be. This is very disappointing. We just moved back from the mainland and we’re looking for a pediatrician for my 22 month old daughter. She was recommended. The person answering the phone couldn’t even give a referral. Not very friendly or accommodating.

We love Dr. Loui and we are so lucky that she is always there for us. Our little Cameron has skin eczema and asthma. Dr. Loui has given us great advice and Cameron has been doing so much better with all of her suggestions. Thank you Dr. Loui!!!

We found Dr. Loui through the husband’s cousin (his kids see Dr. Loui as well). If baby is sick, we call in the a.m. and appointments are usually set the same a.m. Waits are minimal (the longest we had to wait was about 20 b/​c they were busy that day). Other than that, our waits have been between none to 10 minutes. Staff knows us and need not tell them who we are when walking in. Dr. explains things thoroughly and gives handouts at wellness checks (along with child’s current stats). Dr. also has young children so she knows/​understands what we’re going through!

This is our pediatrician and we couldn’t ask for anyone better. Very patient, knowledgeable doctor. Staff is also great! We’ve recommended her to others and they are also very satisfied. If you are looking for a pediatrician, she should be on your short list.
