Long wait time but this is understandable since we don’t have a lot of keiki dentist. Once you Dr visits it’s fast and easy.

Dental Hygienist Adam Zahn provided excellent care. He explained every step and made sure I was comfortable with each process. His professionalism, attentiveness, and kindness was above and beyond. Great job!

The Dental Assistant that was helping my Dentist was not very nice and she rushed thru with my care. But my Dentist came in and had to help due to the incompetence of the dental assistant. And when I voiced my request of not wanting the first dental assistant to care for me, she blurted out “Well this kind of stuff happens all the time” which I feel was unprofessional and disrespectful to me and my mom. So the other Dental Assistant Britney filled in and helped my dentist make it better and were able to fix the problem that the first dental assistant caused my Invisalign to get stuck onto my teeth. From now on I want to request Britney to be the Dental Assistant for my upcoming visits. And the receptionists are always nice and helpful. Thank you to my Dentist and Britney for another great visit.

Today was my first visit to Hawaii Family Dental to see Dr. Chong. The staff members were very cordial and friendly. Dr. Chong was especially pleasant and immediately put me at ease. I truly enjoyed my visit and look forward to my future visits.

I love bringing my kids to this dentist office. The hygienists are always so nice, the Dr. is busy, but he never seems too busy to be kind, to care about the kids and he has a gentle disposition.

The staff were very welcoming when going to see the dentist is scary. It’s not my favorite place to go to. The dentist that did my procedures was great. Very efficient and did a really great job. Also the hygienist, Adam, always does a great job. I actually enjoy going in to see him. Very knowledgeable and gives great reminders on what to do to keep my teeth and gums healthy.

My daughter's hygienist, Adam, is spectacular. My daughter has never expressed any level of comfort at the dentist, but she came out smiling and so happy because he was just fantastic with her. Introduced himself warmly and kindly to me as well. We've had an overall great experience at the Waiakea office. So grateful for them!

Dr. Lee took the time to thoroughly examine our son, who has autism. He was patient and understanding of our family’s needs. Their office was able to schedule him urgently because of a loose tooth.

Just Giving 5 stars so EVERYONE CAN SEE MY REVIEW..please continue to read..I would give this place 0 stars, if I could. DO NOT … I repeat.. DO NOT BRING YOUR BABIES HERE ! Dr.Coy traumatized my baby. He’s the worst dentist to have working on your babies mouths. I haven’t visited since my son was about 4-5, it was the FIRST AND LAST time I took him there.. he’s 12 now.. I have a video that I recorded the day (I CANNOT for the life of me, bring myself to watch the video, even 6-7 years later). The way my son screamed in his chair. SMFH!. Piss me off! This dude SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO PRACTICE ANYMORE!!and what makes it worse is IM NOT THE ONLY PARENT WITH A STORY LIKE THIS, THAT CAME FROM THIS DENIST.If you love your children… please find another dentist and DO NOT TAKE THEM HERE.

"Today I went to the dentist and Bluey was playing on the tv. I had to get fillings so they laid me in the burrito and I smelled grapes (nitrous oxide) lol. He did have to use the needle to make my mouth numb so it felt weird and tingly, but I didn’t cry. He was super fast, it didn’t hurt, and I got some toys when I was done" -My 6 yr old

My son Jovee needed some unforeseen work done at his check up appointment which Doctor Lee addressed promptly and treated us with grace and respect. I appreciate his expertise as well as his encouragement. Also, the entire staff treats us very well and with genuine kindness. They are always very supportive and friendly.
