Dr. Michelle Hiroko Miyashiro, MD

Dr. Miyashiro is a doctor who is supportive, informative, and caring. She didn't force me to accept regimens that I wasn't comfortable with, and throughout my treatment Dr. Miyashiro always took the time to explain the options in order to help me make informed decisions. Most importantly, she has allowed me to have control over my own destiny.

Michelle Miyashiro is a nonpareil in her specialty, & moreover, treats her patients with utmost kindness & respect which makes them thankful to be treated in her limited practice. She listens well to her patients & gives them the opportunity to participate in the planning & decision making of the best treatment for themselves. She is a truly special person & an outstanding doctor.

I scheduled my appointment months in advance, I arrived 20 minutes early, and was kept waiting by Dr. Miyashiro for over 75 minutes (not including my arriving 20 minutes early.) She offered no explanation or apology. My time is important to me as I'm sure the doctor's is to her. I can't imagine her staff allowing me to see the doctor if I arrived over 75 minutes late for the appointment.

can't even get an appointment to form an opinion of her!

I like Dr. Miyashiro and think she's competent but the time spent in the waiting room is long, often an hour. The waiting room is small and crowded, after 30 or so minutes they call you to be weighed and blood pressure then return to the waiting room until treatment room available then wait for doctor. It's very stressful. I happen to believe that if you can't manage your time well then what else isn't being done well.
