Everyone at the front was very nice and helpful. Dr. Stone was gentle with a painful gum procedure and extraction. Very grateful we have someone experienced in his field coming to our island for dental care. We need more like him!

I love this office and their staff. Such a professional environment. Welcoming and service oriented. If I could place Dr. Akioka in this office I would be happy as a lark. Thank you and well done.

Nice friendly staff as always. I have 2 insurance companies each pay for 2 cleanings a year. Went in for third cleaning today and had to pay. They checked and found that submitted both at the same time the last two times. So I'm short two cleanings and it looks like they got paid twice for both. Trying to contact billing but to answer on phone.

I would give 5 stars, but teeth cleaning has overall been unpleasant for me over the years. This last visit Nina made it much better with her efficiency and good nature. It was appreciated.

I'm impressed. This is the first time a dentist has gotten the area to be worked on numb on the first attempt! This is 24 hours later and it still doesn't hurt. Awesome! Thanks. ( only 4 stars as it's been only 24 hours)

BIG MAHALOS to Dr. Tapua and the whole crew at Hawaii Family Dental! From calling to squeeze me in early to getting me in and out smoothly, they made the entire visit hassle-free. Even adding in an unexpected filling last minute, so I didn’t have to make a return trip or possibly have it cause pain in the future. The office is super clean, and having upfront pricing took away all the typical dental anxiety, of oh gosh what’s this gonna cost me! They genuinely make going to the dentist a great experience!

5 Stars all the way! The team at Hawaii Family Dental are kind, caring, friendly, and professional. I experience the same level of professionalism every visit. I first came to Hawaii Family Dental three years ago after a friend referred me. He has been a patient for several years and told me has never experienced pain under their care. I’m sold! Pain is why many people avoid dental care. You can now put that to rest.Dr. Akioka has a gentle touch and is sharp and precise while making sure that you are comfortable and pain free. I’m super impressed with Hawaii Family Dental. As someone who has a low pain threshold, I can’t imagine going anywhere else. Thank you. 5 Stars all the way!

For my baby boys very first visit. The staff from the moment we walked in was aces and the live screen check in was amazingly new, fun and accommodating. Then the greeting was superb followed by a short wait even though my appointment wasn't for another 45 minutes. We were seen in less then ten minutes of waiting. Once we were in one of their awesome rooms the nurse gave me prompt and important information on how the visit would be and what to do to help DR. My son was seen and gave little fuss but was sent off with a 👍 and a bag of healthy gifts for His bravery and visit. I'm so glad I made the right choice. Thank you so very much for the experience and welcome we received from the moment we walked in throughout the visit and seeing us on our way out. We're Very Happy 😁😁😁

I highly recommend Hawaii Family Dental. From the moment I arrived, the entire team was welcoming, friendly, and cheerful, creating a calm and comfortable atmosphere.They took my concerns and anxiety about dental work seriously and made every effort to help me feel at ease. Dr. Todd Stone is exceptional. He was attentive throughout my procedure, frequently checking on my comfort and even pausing when my anxiety became overwhelming to make sure I was okay. His compassion and patience made me feel like a valued person rather than just another patient.Dr. Stone also took the time to thoroughly explain each procedure and answer all of my questions, which gave me confidence and peace of mind. Although going to the dentist has never been something I enjoy, Hawaii Family Dental has completely changed my experience. If I ever need dental care, this is the office I will choose every time.

All nice and helpful people. I have had good experiences here. I will say the only thing is I feel like I have a different primary dentist each time I go. All have been good though.

I had an excellent hygiene appointment today with Nina- without a doubt the best dental cleaning experience ever, and I have been to dental practices all over the country.The dim lighting in the room is immediately relaxing- and the music was also wonderful and adds to the calming atmosphere ! Nina made the cleaning experience itself actually pleasant , and who says that about a visit to the dentist?!! She deserves a raise 😁, good hygienists are hard to find and keep!!! Mahalo to the whole team, everyone is very pleasant and professional.
