PATIENT REVIEWS

just had a great day today at Dr. Miyasaki dental office today.  the front office of Julie and Darylene are the most important staff to make sure your are taken care and have your appointment plan accordingly with your busy schedule.  The best Hygenist in Downtown, is Verna Onaka, in my opinion. she have done a fabulous job in the last four years, and Verna has gone beyond to get that smile you want, and also, you look marvalous and healthier is main reason, why allot of us goes to see a great and outstanding professional Dentist Mr. Miyasaki.  mahalo, for all the support today, and I’m looking forward to my next appointment to see Julia, Darylene, and Verna all in one Day.  aloha, frank T.

Janet is an awesome dental hygienist. She’s very thorough and explained everything so I could understand the reason & cost of services needed and it’s value/benefit. Janet is highly proficient and even though it’s been years since my last visit, she was never condescending. I’m very thankful for her recommendations to get me back on track to good dental health. Although I was prepared for pain due to my hiatus from dental care, Janet masterfully cleaned without ever causing me discomfort. Even the x-rays were totally painless. They have new equipment that doesn’t require you to intensely bite down on painful cards that jam into the roof your mouth and gums. I highly recommend Janet and was thrilled with my first visit back to the dentist.

I can honestly say that there is nothing bad/wrong with Dr. Miyasaki’s office. EVERYONE there is VERY friendly and helpful! I have a bad phobia of going to the dentist, but EVERYONE there tried to make me feel as clam as possible! I would recommend anyone who is in need of a dentist to give them a try! You wont regret it! Thanks Dr. Miyasaki and team members! Brandon N.

My dental hygienist is the best! Professional, caring, and very knowledgeable. I wouldn’t see anyone else.I feel fortunate to be her patient. I hadn’t been to the dentist for years, and my teeth and gums reflected that. I was fearful because of past negative experiences. Dr. Miyasaki was so nice and calmed my fears. He took the time to let me know what treatments would be helpful for me. The sedation dentistry was great because I was able to do multiple fixes without pain. I’m continuing care, working on getting my gums in top shape,under the care of my hygienist. The office staff is top notch, always friendly, polite, and professional. I would highly recommend this office for all your dental needs. These guys really care about you and your teeth! I would rate them a bazillion stars if I could.

Since I just started Medicare insurance coverage this year, I was not familiar with the dental services covered under Medicare. Everyone whom I met during my first visit to A Downtown Dental Group were very courteous, friendly and professional. I am looking forward to my next appointment with Dr. Miyasaki.

The staff, hygienist and Dr. David and Dr. Wilfred are the best in being courteous and considerate. I have been going to this office for over 40 years and always have been given the best service ever. My hygienist is Verna and she been taking care of by teeth since i have been going to the A Downtown Dental Group. Since Dr. David took over, I am very happy. He is very professional and courteous. The office staff, Darlene and Julie, is always friendly. My adult children also goes to them.

Just went in to Downtown Dental Group and this is the best dentist experience I have had. The previous dentist I did see always kept you waiting and the work was not there and for that reason I did not go to a dentist for several years. Since going to Downtown Dental Group the customer service is fantastic. In particular, Janet the dental hygienist is great but Dr. Miyasaki and his staff give you quality dental service.

I have been doing to Dr. Miyasaki’s clinic for over 30 years. They provide the most efficient, gentle and kind dental service. They have exceeded the protocols of keeping patients safe and they communicate all the efforts done to keep the patients in a save environment. The staff are always friendly and very professional.

Just the fact that one of the first things that happened when I started going here was that they scheduled an appointment just to inform me how much the work was gonna cost, and how long it would take to complete makes this the best dentist I’ve ever gone to and worth the five stars alone, but on top of that the staff are very polite and make absolutely sure I know what is happening at all times. I have total confidence in this dentist office. It comes highly recommended by me.

Professional, warm and welcoming staff. Effective office operation. I was able to schedule same day emergency visit and they always try their best to schedule future appointments based on my needs. Quick at follow up to address my concerns as well. Office is clean and extra precautionary measures are taken at Downtown Dental Group to help protect their patients and staff members from Covid-19. Dr. David Miyasaki showed concern for not only my oral health but also my general health. He was good at giving local anesthesia and quick tooth extraction. I really appreciate him giving me extra injections to make sure I was numb well before starting the procedure, and he constantly checked my comfort level in between. Dr. David Miyasaki seems to be extremely busy but he was willing to listen to my concerns, answer my questions and accommodate my request. I truly appreciate his valuable time and efforts in providing good care for his patients. I just recently became new patient at Downtown Dental Group and my initial experience has been positive so far. I really hope I have finally found a place that can help me to leave my fear behind and able to restore my oral health to good condition.

As always…Professional Caring Service As a long time patient, I can always expect a friendly greeting from Julia and Darlene when I enter the office and professional & caring service by Dental Hygienist Verna. During this past visit, one of my crowns came loose. Despite being busy, Dr. David & Remy found the time to squeeze me in on the same day to have my crown re-secured. It is this type of service and family atmosphere that has kept me as a very happy patient. Highly recommended for Sedation Dentistry…

Well, being that the word Dentist is far from me in vocabulary or even going or seeing or just walking by it. Gives me pain. But entering this Dentistry the welcome and smiling faces and help, gave me a easy relax ing mind of thoughts. Blood pressure didn’t even want to play. The sence of humor and laugh’s with the staff felt no pain But the doctor and the conversation, made me feel the word NO FEAR I’m in good hands. Check it out you’re going to see what I mean.

This is by far the best place to go to for all your dentistry needs. Highly recommend! They ALL make you feel at home and treat you with dignity. They genuinely care about their patients. Wish I had come across them earlier. Ty to whomever decided to send a personal flyer to my house. I’m guessing it was an angel.The tooth fairy? Lol! They want you to be satisfied. They care!!! They don’t give you the runaround. Straightforward recommendations. I’ll be smiling more in 2 weeks. Cannot wait!! So grateful to them.

This office is great very friendly staff that made everything very easy . I have never really had a pleasant experience at a dentist office before so this one was great . I first saw Janet that took my  ex rays with a great personality and really helped you understand what was going on in my mouth . They were able to squeeze me in with  DR. David and let me tell you it’s the first time at the dentist where I felt no pain or discomfort , he was awesome and the work he did was great . Elleen and Julia also made my experience amazing. All around a great staff and a great Dental office . I highly recommend this place as I will be going back for all my dental issues.

Again, time after time, Dr. David Miyasaki and his assistance has always been very professional when he does a procedure on me.  He is very concern about pain, which I do not want and the procedure he performed was very well done.  It was one of the longest procedure I have done but I was very conformable.  He also have the most update equipments to make us at ease during the procedure.

This dentist is by far the best dentist I’ve ever EVER been to. He has pulled off three things with my teeth that other dentists claimed they could not. Two of my front teeth are bonded -teeth that I had grinded down from a serious case of tooth grinding over the years. I wanted to lengthen them to their original size and other dentists claimed it couldn’t be done. I’ve had them for close to six months and I could cry telling you how thrilled I am that he put his years of experience and expertise to my smile. I love him! He brought my smile back it’s confidence. So when I broke my tooth on a tiny piece of metal I knew who to call. It wa. A weak tooth as I had previously had a very complicated root canal.  Dr M stepped right in and cleared the very delicate decay of my tooth that was there as prepped my tooth to be ready for a porcelain crown! Not only is he an expert, but he is kind and very affordable! He even payed for my parking hen I realized I didn’t have cash on me. What an absolute wonderful person to entrust my confidence with. I am so grateful and I will recommend him and his amazing staff to everyone!! Thank you downtown dental. Thank you.

Dr. Miyasaki, This rose is for you! You may not recognize it as the fresh yellow rose you gave me on my first appointment in February. When I saw the rose the next morning, it was a tangible reminder that I made the difficult first step and really visited your office. I faced the fear and went through it! The rose represented “Hope” and a new beginning. As you can see, the rose has gone through a metamorphosis as I have during the past six months. In spite of the years of my lack of an easy, healthy smile, I did my best and was able to use and sharpen other skills to create a good life. No one is defined by only one feature or incident. However, I feel the smile that your expertise and skills created for me is a wonderful added asset to my life now. The least of which is a healthier life. Now, I can express externally with a smile the humor and joy I usually feel. It’s amazing how much lighter I feel without the burden of feeling self-conscious about my lack of a decent smile. Dr. Miyasaki, if I had you as my childhood dentist, I would never have been in the situation I was in. I would have looked forward to visiting the dentist. But there is a reason and a time for everything in life, and we always have to live in the present. Every detour takes us down another route intended for us. Your kind, compassionate, and gentle approach added to my commitment and inner knowledge that I made the best decision to call your office. Each member of your staff that I interacted with (Remy, Meg, Darlyne, Julia, Verna, Jo, Janet, Jesus) made me feel accepted and encouraged even though I knew I had a lot of work to go through. This compassionate, non-judgmental approach to those facing dental work of any kind is so important. It is different than resetting a broken arm. From the patient’s perspective, one is in a vulnerable position, horizontal in a chair, with intimidating machines and sounds, strong lights, with mouth fully exposed. People are working “in” your face/head. Besides facing this environment, they are dealing with their own inner gremlins of fear or embarrassment. The patient is putting their full trust in your and your assistant’s hands, a huge responsibility. I felt compelled to write this, in case you have days when you or your staff may feel discouraged or tired or wonder if your work is truly appreciated by your many clients. Hopefully, after you read this, you will know the answer is a resounding yes! You and your team are dispensers of hope, health, and fresh starts. May God bless you and your hands as you work on each client. Of course, I will be back for regular maintenance and for any other dental issues and will refer anyone I know to Dr. Miyasaki! Sincerely

Once again I was very impressed with their excellent patient care and professionalism. Dr David and his staff are welcoming with a smile. Julia at the front office as always was very pleasant and making sure my visit was comfortable. Remy who assisted Dr David always makes you feel at ease. Thanks Dr David and your entire team for a service par excellence!!

Absolutely exceptional service from the time I walked in the door to when I left. I appreciated Julia at the front desk who was so kind and welcoming. And Remy did such a wonderful job on my partial it absolutely fit perfect. And of course doctor Miyasaki s always gentle kind and patient. thank you all for such wonderful service.

I have known Dr. Wilfred Miyasaki and his staff for the past 11 years. I was disappointed to read the review by Chae M. that posted on June 8, 2014. Dr. Miyasaki and his staff have sponsored “Dentists With A Heart” for many years now. They conduct this event as volunteers for those in need of dental services. They are not rude employees and provide quality service to all patients that visit their office. Dr. Miyasaki and his staff are to be commended for a job well done and I sincerely hope that the “Dentists With A Heart” Program continues for many more years.

Dear Dr. Miyasaki & Staff, I just wanted you and your staff to know that coming up in life was very hard for me because I did not have very much. When I had my first child I think I was the happiest man in the world. The day my son was murdered I thought there was nothing else in the world worth living for. When I moved to Hawaii I did not know anyone and I was not sure if I was going to make it here or not. The day I first started coming to your office I was so afraid of the different things that the dentist was going to have to do to me, repairs, fillings, crowns, cleaning, and especially have to give me all the medications, shots. I was not sure if my body could handle. I knew I was scared and embarrassed the way I looked. I have never had no one treat me the way your staff did. From day 1 they have been so polite, respectful, and especially they cared. I have seen and gone to a lot of doctors in my life but none of them have ever come close to being such a wonderful, dedicated, and caring doctor as you. All of you have done so much for me and have treated me with so much respect and professionalism. There are so many things I would like to say to all of you for the way you have made me feel but the main thing is to say from my heart is Thank You for everything. All of you are wonderful people and without your help and strength I would of never made it or gone through what I went through. Your office has shown me that there are good people in this world that do care. May God always be with all of you and gicve you and your families the strength to get everything you deserve out of life. God Bless all of you. Very respectfully, Michael Taylor

The Staff was very courteous the place is clean everyone is nice and they listen to what I want it and I got above and beyond what I had expected I relocated here eight years ago from San Francisco and I have been going to the same dentist from the age 18 until now I’m 64 but I went from the dad to the sun and song they did excellent excellent work this was the third dentist that I’ve had in eight years here in Hawaii and the kind of service that I’m a custom to from the San Francisco Bay area I would recommend this to anyone

Ever since my first experience with Dr. Miyasaki and his staff it was always welcoming in a very comfortable environment. I’m a scaredy-cat when it comes to the dentist but they always made sure that I was okay with whatever was going on at the time. Dr. Miyasaki tries to squeeze in consultations at the time of services instead of you coming back to where your next visit will be your actual visit to get the work done. Love their process!!!

The Aloha your staff showed is remarkable. since coming home i haven’t seen much of this. This is Hawaii and we must not forget what Aloha means. Today I felt that from everyone in your office. At lease your office has not forgotten that. If anyone ask me to recommend a dentist I will definitely recommend your office

I originally made a appointment just for my annual cleaning because my hygienist that I usually go to on different location, suddenly quit for family emergency and I needed someone right away before my insurance expires next month. Luckily, they were able to fit me in within few days. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and the fact the office was really clean and they had air filter for every room left me with great first impression. Now I realize how unsanitary and dirty my old dentist’s office were before coming here. The staff from receptionist, assistant staff and hygienist was all very helpful and friendly. I met with a hygienist Janet Mariano. She explained about my oral health and was genuinely concerned about my gum. After few minutes of talking to her, I have decided to do a deep gum cleaning(treatment) as well. I have never experienced such a thorough cleaning by a hygienist. She constantly asked about my comfort level during cleaning and it really made me feel at ease. She is by far the best hygienist I ever had. I was glad that my old hygienist quit because I’ll be coming here for all my dental needs from now. They left me with great first impression. I would recommend this dental office to anyone especially Janet as a hygienist. A++

10/02/2020 Let me start by saying that I have been terrified of The Dentist my entire life. Years ago I had a terrible experience with a dentist in Kailua who told me it was “not possible”  for me to be feeling the pain that I was feeling as I white-knuckled the chair and tried to breathe through the pain. My lack of dental insurance coupled with my fear of dentists has kept me out of the chair and led to my having serious dental problems. After days of pain and not being able to eat or sleep, I literally could not take the pain anymore.  So as soon as they opened I called to see if they would see me. I was told to come in to their office so off I went worried, in pain, and not even sure if I could financially afford to stop the pain. The reason for this review is to let anyone, who may be similarly situated, know that Dr. David Miyasaki is different and you can honestly Trust him. His staff is different and they genuinely care. I mean real Malama real Kokua not just Waha kine. I mahalo Ke Akua for bringing me to Dr. Miyasaki and I Mahalo Dr. Miyasaki and his team for not only taking the pain away and working with me but for giving me hope that I’ll be able to someday smile again. So in conclusion, if your not thankful for your dentist its because you don’t have this team, and I’m just thankful because now I do.

Thanks billion for surprise ( Dr.David ) making  a wish for temporary  . Nevertheless thought meet a dentist could convince me look at package deal  regardless, It’s just amazing feeling going have complete dentures that promise will eat burger with pleasure as “Hawaiimukbang96706″ everyone thought was joking ” it’s really true found their advertisement in yellow page “

Dr. David has been my dentist for about three years now. He takes the time to explain what he’s doing, give options, and the pros and cons of the options. He shows care for his patients and genuine interest in ensuring you have good oral health. I had a bad experience with another dentist on island who I had a lot of fillings done with. Less than a year later there was pain with the fillings and while the bad dentist told me it was gum infection, when I decided to get a second opinion from David, found out that it was a broken filling that needed replacement. I’ve since had two other cracked fillings from the bad dentist that he fixed as well.

I know I needed a lot of dental work and was kind of nervous about hearing all the treatment options from Dr. David Miyasaki. To Dr. David Miyasaki’s credit, he took the time to clearly explain everything and made me feel more relaxed. Bottom line is we came up with a plan of action. I left the office in a better space than when I came in.

I can’t tell you how ecstatic I was when I left Dr. Miyasaki’s office, I went in in the morning & left within a couple hours with a completely new smile that same day . I felt no pain at all after the procedure, Dr. Miyasaki and his staff made me feel so comforted and reassuring that I had nothing to worry about, & they were right, each and everyone of the staff in office has so much care and compassion for every individual that walks through there front door. that I would recommend anybody with High anxiety , or who are just traumatized with visits to the dentists , like I was. To Definitely go down to Dr. Miyasaki’s office and experience it for yourself. You’ll be completely satisfied that you did, you’re in the best hands. I finally feel like I have a second shot in getting my life back together, I now have the confidence that I once had before. All thanks to you Dr. Miyasaki, you are the antidote to my fear of trips to the dentists office.

Yelp 31 days Challenge: 11 of 31 I have been going to Dr. Miyasaki’s office since I moved to Hawaii. He has always been very kind and the reception staff is super friendly. I am writing this review for my recent cleaning experience. I called last minute, and they gave me Verna as my dental hygienist. She had never worked on me before, so I was a little wary because I have sensitive gums. She meticulously looked at my chart to make sure she had all things in order including examining my previous x-rays, and then started on my cleaning. She started by polishing my teeth first; typically, the polishing is done last, but it totally makes sense to polish them first. She then applied a topical numbing cream to make the experience more comfortable. I was thinking, “uh-oh” this is not going to be good. The whole experience was pain free, and my teeth were the cleanest they have ever been after a typical cleaning. Verna made them sparkle. Dental hygienists usually send me on my merry way to the front desk to make my next appointment, but Verna scheduled my next appointment as I am sitting there. Check out was a breeze. Great customer service all around.

The staff was very personable and helpful as soon as I walked in the door. The Dental assistant was excellent. I felt so much relief knowing that I was going to be given the best care. I have a Dental Phobia and my anxiety was diminished immediately. Dr. Miyasaki is an angel. Professional, calm, understanding. I am SO happy I found him. I am recommending him to Everyone I know.

My wife and I’s original experience with Downtown Dental Group was not great to be honest. Our initial appointment was supposed to be a simple teeth cleaning and we ended up spending 2.5 hours at the office getting xrays we didn’t ask for and being told that we had a lot of problems with our teeth that we would have to schedule a follow up appointment to discuss. Enter Dr. Miyasaki- Extremely kind man and owner of the business with empathy for our situation. He spent the whole weekend trying to get in touch with us to make the situation right. I was extremely impressed that he remembered who I was and my personal situation based on a photograph my mother showed him of when I lived in Okinawa 4 years ago. Looking forward to rescheduling our teeth cleaning and consultation with him directly. My biggest feedback point here is to ask for Dr. Miyasaki when you book your appointment with Downtown Dental Group or at the very least be EXTREMELY specific and over communicate what you hope to get out of your appointment. I’m not sure what his availability is like but I can imagine that had we originally asked specifically to be seen by him or been advocates for ourselves, we would not have had such a rocky first experience with Downtown Dental Group. My sincerest thanks to Dr. Miyasaki for taking time out of his weekend to address our concerns with a phone call. 5 star customer service and exactly the kind of local business I want to be supporting.

I have had many dentists in my life and Dr. Miyasaki has taken the #1 spot.  There was no hassle in scheduling a cleaning (many dentist offices require you to schedule a new patient examination and then the cleaning, charging for both of course, Dr. Miyasaki does not)  I was ushered into a separate room to fill out the paperwork and offered drinks.  I was then seen immediately and had a great experience.  In the waiting room there are news videos covering stories involving this dentist office.  It looks like he does a number of good community things besides just offering outstanding cleanings.
