Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Two Shaka up! Mahalo Dr. Lam!

Dr. Lam is awesome bruh! Went with my wife, and he was solid. Super chill, really listens, and treats you with respect. Explains things so you can actually get it, you know? You can tell he's smart, but not in a fancy way. Just a real good, kind dude. Bringing the whole ohana here, for sure!

I recently visited Dr. Lam’s office, and I must say, the care I received was truly exceptional. Dr. Lam’s genuine concern for his patients is evident in every interaction. His honesty and transparency about my health condition were reassuring, fostering a sense of trust. What stood out most was Dr. Lam’s intelligence and expertise. He explained complex medical details in a way that was easy to understand, allowing me to actively participate in my healthcare decisions. The level of attention he provided during the appointment made me feel valued as a patient. Dr. Lam’s commitment to thoroughly listen is commendable. He took the time to understand my concerns and patiently addressed each one. This personalized approach instills confidence in the treatment plan he recommended. Overall, I appreciate the holistic care I experienced at Dr. Lam’s office. If you’re seeking a doctor who combines expertise with genuine compassion, I highly recommend scheduling a visit.

Dr. Lam is one of the best doctors I've ever seen as a patient. He is attentive, listens to all my concerns, is consultative without passing judgement, and just an all around cool guy! The office staff is just as kind and friendly. If you're looking for a family care provider, look no further because Dr. Lam is the total package!

Being a busy executive, I don't have much time ever to write these "reviews", and from my experience, some can not be trusted since they usually come from angry customers. I made the time out of my day to write about the most amazing TEAM in medicine on this island! The perfect balance of Ms.Erika and Dr.Lam have never let me down, have always seen me when needed, and has ALWAYS fixed me faster than ever before. They are and will be the leading family medical practice for years to come! -Elvis C

Takes time to listen and explain things, great experience. I've always been hesitant and a little intimidated with seeing the doctor, but after going to Dr. Lam he put me at ease. I feel much more comfortable with asking him questions because he's really down to earth, trustworthy and caring. Try him out!
