HAPPY CLIENTS

"Dr. Takagi makes every visit worthwhile. I've been impressed with his knowledge, technical skills, and warm chair-side manner. He's the consummate professional but is also down-to-earth and practical, taking time to talk story without running behind, explaining things clearly and following through on his plans. His office is well-appointed and modern, with easy parking and great views of the Ko'olaus. His office staff are wonderful, too.

I appreciate the reminder texts about upcoming appointments

and they are flexible with rescheduling.

I recommend Dr. Takagi highly to friends and family."

Jerry Mueller

5 Stars! Two thumbs way up! 

"When I first visited Dr. Takagi I knew I needed a couple cavities filled and was overdue on my teeth cleaning...I had been putting off both of these things because I historically hate going to the dentist. But finally I made an appointment with Dr. Takagi, who came recommended. I am so glad I did--he and his staff were kind, professional, and gentle in their work. Most notably, it was the least uncomfortable dental experience I've ever had. He was happy to talk through all of my questions with me beforehand, and both the teeth cleaning and fillings were a breeze. I will definitely be using Dr. Takagi for my dental needs from now on!"
