Pros to this office: *Didn't have a long wait time to be seen and no packed waiting room. Cons to this office: *Office isn't as "clean" as I would expect. Trash was overflowing onto the countertop in their patient restroom and toilet seat looked like it hadn't been sanitized in quite awhile. Ick. *Office claimed they all wear their masks all the time, but that's not true. A couple of employees quickly put their masks on when they saw patients walking in. *Staff that remained after 5:00 pm had no clue about what was arranged with staff from earlier in the day. * Assistant was very rude. Brought my family member out and made it very obvious she was not happy when she spoke with the receptionist about the next appointment.
When I asked her a question she just walked off. I've worked in dentistry for over 27 years and I am surprised that our experience was as bad as it was. I truly thought that the Uehara's would have a well -educated and professional staff. Hopefully, it's just a few bad apples. However, we won't be returning.

We love the ENTIRE Dental Care of Maui team! They are all gems! Dr John has been seeing my son since he was 10-months old (with a full set of teeth!) and we have always received the most impeccable care! Dr John was even able to notice before our pediatrician that my son had tongue tie, which was the source of a lot of issue we were experiencing with his development. He is a genius about everything teeth related! I highly recommend!

Prompt and professional service with a very short wait. My teeth cleaning was thorough and took a while, which is good. Staff is very Aloha, and feels like a family business. This is my 4th time using them and will continue to do so.

Called ahead of time to ask if they took my insurance before booking appointment. (Not a lot of dentists take it). Said yes they do. After I was done they said that'll be x amount. I said I have insurance. They said oh we're not in network. I asked why they didn't tell me that up front when I called or at any point before the appointment. "That's our doctors policy". Shady shady shady business practice.
At no point in the interaction did they state I will be paying this out of pocket. It's no different than theft. The ol bait and switch. If they're willing to lie about that I wouldn't trust them with my teeth or anyone's.
