Dr. Hirata is the best doctor Ive ever had in my 50 years of life! He excells in patient care, bedside manner. He treats you like a person and not a patient number. He shows interest and concern and if possible cure your medical issues and not just medicate and brush you off. If you cant be cured he walks with you still giving you support and comfort even if you have to be referred to a specialist.
