Great staff at Front Desk and Back office. Everyone is friendly, professional and knowledgeable. Excellent experience today. Dentist Dr Mello is always a great communicator and gentle at procedure. Service was very timely and perfectly on schedule. Also I had a great experience yesterday with the Hygienist. This office is top notch all around. Thank you all.

I’ve had horrible dentist experiences in the past, especially with doctors and hygienists not being professional and treating people with respect. I’m happy to say that Dr. Mello, the Hygienists and all of the staff at Hawaii Family Dental have been amazing. Professionalism at its finest.

My words would be less to thank Dr Mello she has been a angel for me to help me in my severe tooth pain extraction. She was so kind to call me and guide me with pain and next day morning 7.30 am did my extraction. Absolute smooth hands and did not even know when it was out. I gave a big hug in tears. Thank you so much Dr Mello not enough words of mahalo ❤️❤️🌺💐🌈

I had a communication breakdown with office staff about the purpose of my visit. Instead of sending me away, the staff made sure I spoke to Dr. Mello about the bridge process. Dr. Mello was kind and thorough about what to expect, and the next morning I was called, told my insurance company pre-authorization had gone through and I had a date for my front tooth bridge. What a team HFD-Kihei has.

I am a retired hygienist who has been a patient at Hawaii Family Dental for 4 years. I have had many dental cleanings and I know how to judge a thorough cleaning. Kailey is the best hygienist I have ever had. She very gentle and also very thorough. She is pleasant and friendly and I am usually seated on time.
Dr. Mello is also pleasant and friendly but I can not speak to the quality of her dentistry as I have not needed anything more than an exam.
