My visit was great! Nurse Rita is a true professional, very real, doesnt try to push unnecessary procedures on you. She possess a vast knowledge of her profession. Rita is a Master of beauty! I would go to her again, again and again!
My Estetician is always so sweet, kind and knowledgeable about her craft...she informs me about every step through the entire process which I really appreciate. The office is welcoming, professional and clean...If your looking to enhance your body, spirit and mind I would recommend Dr. Shim Chings office and staff to see the best options for yourself. Thank you!!
I went to Dr.Shim Ching for a breast augmentation because I heard how well he takes care of his patients. Dr. Ching and his staff made me feel so comfortable and welcomed. They were fast and efficient with my time and everyone was knowledgeable about the procedure.This was my first surgery but I instantly felt at ease starting with the nurses, then the anesthesiologist, and lastly Dr. Ching. He came in before my surgery to ask if I had any questions about the procedure and was thoughtful with his answers.My post-op experience has also been great. Minimal inconvenience. No pain. I was back to work (light work) after just a few days.Definitely recommend if you’re considering a breast augmentation or any other procedure! Why go anywhere else than to the best surgeon in Hawaii!
I always have great experience here at Dr. Shim Ching’s office. He have an excellent team that make sure your skincare need is well taken care of and other cosmetology needs from head to toe in a timely manner. Wonderful people friendly, Clean office and don’t forget to inquire about their Monthly VIP Membership. Your skin will thank you later! 😁
On the 4th I went in for my first tattoo removal session. The salon atmosphere is very tranquil and Joleen was very gentle and walked me through the whole process. I purchased the package deal and excited for my next appointment.
The staff are all so amazing and very welcoming, which is a huge plus for me being im all about good energy. I’m also very pleased with my results.
Doctor Shim Ching is 100% THE BEST PLASTIC SURGEON IN THE WORLD!!! The Highest class Talent! Gods Gifted- He has it ALL: 5 star brilliant, professional, knowledgeable, innovative, creative, caring, kind and people loving man! Him and his amazing Office and Surgery room Crew touched my heart deeply! Thank you for letting me be a part of your Ohana! Aloha Love to All of you!
From the moment I reached out to Dr Ching on Instagram regarding pricing on breast augmentation. Communication has been very easy and efficient. As promised by Dr Ching I was contacted Monday when the office opened back up Keri called me and gave me more details as far as scheduling and pricing, she scheduled my consultation and I flew in being on the big island she made sure appointments were all setup. She answered any questions that I had making me feel at ease. All though I’m still early in recovery I’m excited to see my final results !Dr Ching has answered any questions that I had quickly when I reached out to him via Instagram as office was closed during the weekends .The whole team is awesome from Dr Lui to Keri and all the nurses. I had a awesome experience here at this practice and I suggest anyone who is looking for the BEST DR and best quality staff definitely go see Dr Ching and his team!
Once I got into the consultation room Maria was amazing. She is so patient with all of my questions and even elaborated on things that I didnt think of. She made me feel confident that they had my best interests at heart. Dr. Ching was very thorough in explaining the procedure to me and heard my concerns as well as explained how he would make me feel comfortable during and after the procedure.
Horrible experience, Stay away if you need surgery. My wife and I are both medical doctors and know what we are talking about. We have filed a complaint with the medical board as well. My wife had a prophylactic double mastectomy and Dr Ching did the reconstruction. His incompetence resulting in mutilation, pain, many days of lost work, and horrible scarring. After the first surgery, the wounds became infected, this required multiple further surgeries. A total of 7 surgeries were done, every single one complicated by infection. He tried to blame the infections on the patient, not his poor sterile technique. He inserted the implants in the wrong pocket subcutaneous and not behind the muscle where there already was a pocket, one time he contaminated the inside of the implant at the time of surgery so that when it was removed it was full of yellow fluid. In another instance, his MA ruptured the implant while trying to fill it in the office, this required another surgery (our new plastic surgeon always filled the implant himself not delegating it to a MA). The post-op care was poor as was the pain management, they were in a hurry to send the patient home rather than make sure they were comfortable. We finally went to another plastic surgeon who has now had to do 5 more surgeries to correct Dr Chings botched surgeries. With the new surgeon, there has been NO infection at all, with much less pain, and much more professional post-operative care. There are a bunch of one-star reviews on this doctor that are hidden, check them out.
Being my first time under anesthesia i definitely thought i would be a lot more anxious but from every step of the way Dr. Ching and his staff made me feel very comfortable and relaxed where there was no anxiety even on the day of surgery. I had full trust in everyone and Im so happy to have found them. Thank you for everything Dr. Ching AND STAFF! :))
I was nervous to do the laser hair removal. When I got there Ashlin was flawless! She calmed my nerves & made the process so easy. She made sure I was comfortable the entire time. The girls at the front desk were the sweetest too!! All around great staff! If you’re ever wondering about laser hair removal, go to Ashlin! Trust me, you’ll be so happy you did. I can’t wait for my next appointment!
Dr. Ching and his staff were outstanding! Dr. Liu the anesthesiologist was amazing and made me feel so well taken care of! I am absolutely in love with my results!! Thank you!!
It was in April I dealt with Keri Choy regarding surgery questions. I live oversea so we communicated through email. Keri was professional and helpful. she followed through with all the questions I had. I’m glad she can help. Definitely I will go back to Dr. Ching.
Awa is very personable, professional and knowledgeable. She does a great job of keeping me apprised throughout the treatment of what’s to come and makes sure I know how to take care of my skin post-treatment!
Dr ShimChings Patient coordinator-Keri was an amazing help during my consultation visit. Before I went in person, our phone conversation went well, she was very knowledgeable about anything I had a question or concerned I had. She was very pleasant & friendly. For my in-person consultation, finding the office was very easy & upon arriving I was immediately greeted with smiles from the front desk and was checked in efficiently. The waiting room was clean and well presented. During my appointment, Keri made me feel comfortable & was very informative and gave me a very professional opinion. She didn’t pressure me at all. I was then given a 3D image look see at my potential results after surgery and I was impressed! They are very up to date on technology. Then shortly after discussion I felt very informed & excited to start my new journey with Dr Shimching and his staff. I would recommend them to friends & family!
I am very appreciative of dr Ching and his staff for being such kind, professional and caring people.He had reconstructed my breast before, another doctor did a horrible job on me and dr Ching had to fix it few years ago.This time I went in to remove the implants. I do believe they were making me sick. I have been so sick since the implants....:so I called dr Ching if he can do proper explant for me.And of course dr Ching was able to.I went in to get explanted, and since not a lot of doctors does proper explant, I was worried. I needed dr Ching to remove the implants and the capsule with all the scar tissues out. Dr Ching is the only surgeon I really trust now adays.He is the only surgeon that really do enbloc total capsulectomy in Hawaii.I had to go back in to get the right side of my chest drained after surgery and I was terrified when they told me, they won’t be putting me out to do the job.I had bad experience before with another dr who cut into me without proper medication and I went into shock with so much pain. They rushed me to emergency for painblock and something else to calm my body down.I explained it to Dr Ching, and he was really kind and did what he can for me to make me comfortable during the procedure.I didn’t feel pain during the procedure at all. And I am healing now.
What an amazing experience! The office is beautiful and very welcoming. The reception staff was great, they made making my appointment easy and were so sweet when I checked in. Rita was fantastic! She is so knowledgeable, and I knew I was in good hands. I couldn’t imagine what my lips would look like with fillers, but she blew any expectation out of the water! I am so happy with the results I can’t stop looking at them. What a great experience. So many people have asked me where I got them done and I recommend Rita and Dr. Shim Ching’s Office to them. Can’t wait for my next appointment!
Dr Shim stuff gives me wrong impression of how this procedure was going to be.They promote I was going to be able to go back to work next day but I was drugged and in strong pain that I make promises to my clients and have to get one job done for free for the wrong information that the nurse Mia told meThey give you information in paper to know what to expect but as this nurse promised it should be okay for me and I should be able to go back to work I mis promise to my clients and wasn’t able to get the job done on time.I been feeling uncomfortable and had call but first few day they don’t reply till couple days later. Now has been couple months since the liposuction was done and still feel uncomfortable and feel that what I did never works for I gain more weight and I look same, I call two weeks ago to ask if I could talk with dr shim just to discuss how I felt and what was happening but the nurse Mai just told me if its was a emergency and if it was to call 911.I ask if she could ask the dr shim to call me but she just told me I have a appointment to December 9th I told her cannot wait till then if can she ask him to call me, she told me she will ask the nurse to contact me or him now again has been two weeks and no one has reply or call.To get their money they call you 3 to 4 times a day but to see how you feel after they get their money they don’t careSo disappointed of this clinic and their stuff ...
Caring and professional - listened to my wishes and didn’t over-prescribe. Love the results!
I received silicone breast augmentation through the armpit with Dr.Ching at Asia Pacific Plastic Surgery! The experience day of surgery was superb. Nurse Erin was there to greet me upon arrival and her calm but professional demeanor made me feel safe and secure, she went over all the details of surgery and what to expect afterwards. I then met my anesthesiologist Dr.Liu, she was so sweet and truly made me feel like I was in the best care, assuring me that she would be there every step of the way. Dr.Ching came in before surgery to answer any other questions or concerns as well as confirm my desired results and sizing. I appreciate the care and time he took to speak with me and really felt that he listened and understood what I wanted out of my breast augmentation and he delivered! I’m so stoked on my results and would definitely recommend Dr.Ching and his staff for any of your cosmetic needs. Mahalo Asia Pacific Plastic Surgery for making my breast aug dreams come true!
Dr Shim Ching and his staff have been amazing throughout the entire process of me deciding to obtain a breast augmentation and up to pre-op. I have been contemplating having the procedure done for years to correct asymmetry and enhance my size A breasts. Although I have recently started competitive bodybuilding I am also very active with hiking/running, surfing, and military training and was concerned about having a size that would meet my desired look and not be in the way of my active lifestyle. Dr Ching and his staff were more than willing to answer all my questions and address my concerns to determine the best size and technique for my procedure. I feel extremely confident that I’ll love my results and know they will be readily available to answer any questions I have post surgery. Overall absolutely amazing experience thus far!!
Love the Sopranoice machine! Been so hesitant to do my Brazilian laser due to it being so painful the last time I did it with another machine but this one is magic! Felt little to no pain at all. Staff is so professional and friendly and Joleen who was my esthetician made my treatment so quick and easy!
I needed reconstruction surgery quick! Dr Ching saw me right away, even when I live on another island! He help me and was very kind and understanding. Now, I need a bit of revision 6 months later and his concern and willingness to help is amazing! I am so thankful! Dr. Ching understands that a a woman’s body is her temple!
Such an amazing experience from beginning to end! Since the phone consult there was nothing but welcoming and friendly staff, not to mention Dr.Ching is incredible and truly a professional! I was walked through the entire process during the phone consult, in my face to face consult and before surgery! I felt very confident and comfortable with everyone one! I would highly recommend to everyone considering any type of plastic surgery! I overall had an amazing experience!
Dr. Shim and his entire staff are exceptional. Dr. Shim has a comforting bedside manner and I am more than happy with my results. He takes his time to hear your concerns. Thank you Dr. Shim and staff.
Great atmosphere (wonderful staff, positive, upbeat, non-judgmental, professional, attentive, honest) and very accommodating. I switched to Asia Pacific Plastic Surgery (from another PS provider who was very good but charged a bit more) to compare services / pricing and I’m very happy to stay with APPS! Plus, who doesn’t want to look at views of Diamond Head when getting poked with needles?
The bldg is very nice and their office is nicely decorated and clean. Rita was my nurse injector. She is very knowledgeable, professional, genuine, and outgoing. I live in Ewa Beach, and drove out to town to see her. The service is worthed it!! Thank you Rita - Shes amazing. The receptionists at the front desk are nice. I will be back for future treatments!!
My first time ever going to,a plastic surgeon. I always look for cleanliness when I go to a doctors office. Their office is very nice and clean. Treatment rooms are the same way. The staff is very nice and kind to your needs.
I went in for initial hair transplant procedure yesterday and the procedure went well. Dr. Ching and the staff were very courteous, professional, and experienced in what they do, which comforted me as this is all new to me. Looking forward for the results to come to fruition in 3-4 months where my hair will grow again in those thinning areas where my hair was starting to bald.
My experience with Dr. Shim Ching was quite pleasant! He is personable and listens to your concerns. The staff is incredibly friendly, outgoing, and personable as well. I highly recommend Asia Pacific Plastic Surgery for any of your cosmetic needs!
This was the first time I had a procedure at Asia-Pacific. Stacy Muse very patiently explained the procedure, was very meticulous, and my injections were pain-free. She suggested small injections at a new site of my face where I’ve never addressed but have aged in that area, and that area now looks like it did 20 years ago, I’m so happy with the results! My results are amazing and I’m extremely happy with Stacy’s work. Will definitely be returning for all of my injectibles.
I have been going here for over a year for laser hair removal. I originally bought a five session package. When that was done I was not satisfied with the result ( no change in hair growth) I was informed that if i want it to be baby bottom smooth and no hair growth or next to nothing for 6month ( need to do go back for a touch up about twice a year) I should get another 5 session package. So I did. Im at my last appointment (10) and again the hair growth is the same. I have to shave every day to keep it smooth. Dont waste your time or money. I am light skinned with dark hair. I paid for my underarms and Brazilian. The staff is extremely nice.
Staff is very friendly and professional! Excellent location. Sometimes parking is easy. Most of all I feel very confident in my treatment plan.
From the beginning to the end I was totally taken care of. Everyone I met was so awesome. Amazing customer service, made me comfortable, welcomed and answered all the questions with ease. The whole team is very professional. I will definitely be back . Thanks you Dr. Ching and all your staff for your wonderful work .
My wife was a patient at APPS. Her experience was incredible. The staff were courteous, caring and knowledgeable. Dr. Shim Ching provided exceptional care and service. I am usually an anxious person, but his staff were very comforting and reassuring for myself and my wife. 5/5 stars we highly recommend APPS to family and friends. thanks again APPS!
Everything went well. The staff was very nice and helpful. I felt comfortable and positive when I went into surgery. After the surgery the staff was very tentative and helpful.
I had a great experience with Dr. Ching and the entire staff. They made sure to show me all of my options and made sure I knew what to expect with the procedure. I had no complications and could not be happier.
Dr. Shim Ching and his staff are so professional and make you feel so comfortable through the whole process. I wasnt nervous at all, they explained every step along the way. I got a breast augmentation and barely feel any pain. I am so happy with my results and highly recommend Dr. Shim Ching.
Just had another great visit with Dr. Shim Ching and staff. I’m so grateful to be treated with the highest respect. I always feel comfortable and natural at Asia Pacific Plastic Surgery.
I am very happy with my breast augmentation results! Dr. Ching and his staff make the experience easy and stress free.
June 4, 2019, one month follow up visit for my facelift surgery done on May 3, 2019, Im doing great! Still a bit swollen but otherwise doing fine. The swelling came down a lot and I have pain but very tolerable so I think Ill survive. My advice for today is to try and think happy thoughts and if you have any pain problems, take it out on your significant other.
I had an amazing experience with Dr Ching and his staff, from start to finish. During my consultation, I felt confident that I have met with the right Dr. He eased my worries with his professionalism and expertise in the type of surgery I wanted (double eyelid).During surgery, he was very patient and really took his time to perfect his artwork.I am very pleased with my results, and have gotten compliments from friends and family. A few from strangers as well!Great doctor and staff!
FANTASTIC...NOT JUST THE DOCTOR BUT THEY ALL SHOULD HAVE BEEN VOTED, THE BEST ALL AROUND. THE STAFF IS GREAT AND THE PERSONAL ATTENTION THEY GIVE YOU IS AMAZING.DR. SHIM CHING IS THE BEST, AS SKEPTICAL AS I WAS ABOUT THE FEAR OF SURGERY.... HE HAS CHANGED MY ATTITUDE,I AM HAPPY TO SAY, I would recommend them to anyone and I am sure you will be pleased with the results and the service. The nurses are great at what they do and take the time to make you comfortable. Thank you for all youve done for me, I truly appreciate it. Aloha, Gayle
This staff is remarkable. They were professional, patience and caring. From my very 1st visit I felt the warmth. Their sincerity continues, I am 1 week post op and they are with me every step of the way. From the nurses, nurse assistants, anesthesiologist, and all the office staff but especially, last and certainly not at all least. The man of the hour, Dr. Shim Ching himself. He listened to me, my concerns and my desires. He asked questions and explained everything. I would choose him (them) again without a 2nd thought if required more cosmetic surgery.
Good customer service all the time! And the office I feel like at home.. another thing is they add the keurig coffee. Love it❤️
I have only positive things to say about Dr. Ching and Stacy. I am a 37 year old woman and had a baby 7 months ago. I noticed a lot of fat loss/hollowness to my face as well as new wrinkles around my eyes after I lost the baby weight. I did a consultation with Stacy and she injected eye fillers and botox on the same day! Talk about instant results. I wanted the results to be subtle (I like to watch Real Housewives not look like them!). Stacy did a fantastic job and it was completely pain-free! I was really nervous going in, but I am so happy I did it and the staff kept me relaxed and distracted the whole time. The results are everything I hoped for. I loved my experience so much that Im getting ready to schedule my breast lift/mini tummy tuck! Stay tuned for my next review ;)
The whole staff is very friendly and helpful. Hekili and Dr. Ching were especially wonderful. They answered my questions and made sure I was comfortable with my surgery. The atmosphere was great! Inviting and very clean.
I had my nose and breasts done by Dr. Shim Ching & had a beauty mark removed from my nose- all in 2012. To date (2018) I still look good, have not had any health problems with my surgeries, and have no visible surgical scars or deformities.Im absolutely happy with my results! I can look in the mirror daily and appreciate my body, which was a gift Dr. Shim Ching has given me! Im thankful for having chosen Asia Pacific and the courteous services the staff provided me as a patient!Side note: I would encourage anyone considering cosmetic surgery to speak to a counselor FIRST as many cosmetic surgeries are very expensive, are typically not covered by medical insurance, and often can not be reversed to the bodies original condition. I went to counseling for OVER A YEAR before my surgeries took place. My counselor and I covered everything from A to Z:Why do I want surgery in the first place?Have I looked into the price of surgery?Can I afford the cost?Can I take time off work to recover?How do I expect my life to change?What if I dont like the results?Am I prepared to wear face bandages?Who will support me at home post-surgery?Etc.I didnt just decide one day, I want a nose job! or wake up and say, I want implants! I had professionals working with me months before, during, and after my surgeries.I ask that you prepare yourself for all possible outcomes. If you want surgery, let it be because your heart wants it. Dont have surgery because you are being pressured by others. Dont have surgery with expectations of your self-esteem shooting to the moon. Dont have surgery because someone you admire got surgery and their life became glamorous and you hope to have typical results.Your life & your body are yours! Everyone walks different paths in life. Ensure that you have a safe, healthy, and loving path to walk on. Best wishes!Thank you for reading my review!
I had my first Kybella procedure today. Stacy was professional, but at the same time put me at ease because I was pretty nervous. I also had concerns if the Kybella would affect an existing condition that I have, but Stacy was very knowledgeable and explained to me why I didnt have to worry and even recommended a book that could help me because she too had the same condition. In addition to the numbing cream, I think she is one of the only injectors that also include numbing in the injections plus she gave me a little pro-nox to ease my nerves which was insanely wonderful...trust me on this one!!! I felt like I drank a whole bottle of wine, but had no side effects and because it wore off after about 10 minutes, I was more than able to drive back to work afterwards. I hardly felt a thing when she started the injections and it was done before I knew it. She explained what would/could happen and how I would feel in the next few days and told me that I could call her at anytime if I had questions. By the way, she wasnt just saying that because I had a question about what pain meds I could take and she responded back to me right away. Im so happy that I found Stacy the FaceKween!!!
I had a breast reduction in 2009 by dr shimching, I didn’t think I’d be able to breast feed when the time came because of having this surgery. But I just had my firstborn and I am to 100% able to breast feed him! I’m so grateful for the care that dr shimching put into my surgery. I also love how they look! My scars have gone down significantly and I have quite a bit of feeling still. Some areas are numb but I think that comes with the territory.Very grateful for this procedure and also the fact that I can breast feed after having this done!He’s a great DR, highly recommend ✨
Dr. Shim Ching and his staff are very professional and care a lot about their patients. I never leave unsatisfied and I always trust their suggestions. Absolutely wonderful!
Dr shim Ching is the best surgeon of the island of Oahu. You will get what you paid for. He gets the most hospitable staff. I just love them. Thank you 😊
Dr. Shim Ching is the best in the business! From the moment I met him during my consultation, he was very personable and easy to talk to. The recommendations he made for me is what had me sold and I proceeded with scheduling my breast augmentation with him. He and his staff have exceeded my expectations and I could not be any happier with my results! Thank you Dr. Grace Liu for being the BEST anesthesiologist in the business!! You are amazing!! No nausea at all!! From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU Dr. Ching for my life changing experience!!
Asia Pacific offers a variety of options to help you look and feel better. While I had no plastic surgery or fillers, my face looks and feels great. The building was easy to find and very relaxing. The staff are professional and friendly. I would highly recommend Asia Pacific to everyone!
Best Doctor in Hawaii and LOVE LOVE LOVE the STAFF CLEAN SAFE POSITIVE and JUST no other place i rather attend for my needs!
Very friendly staff and helpfull
The staff at Asia Pacific Plastic Surgery are all very friendly and professional. They are caring and helpful to my questions and concerns. Dr. Ching and his staff make sure that you are very satisfied with the service(s) you received from them. I also like the fact that the place is clean, has a nice modern look, and is conveniently located. Id definitely recommend him to others.
Dr. Ching, Hekili and the rest of the staff were amazing! I was new to the entire plastic surgery process, but I was made so comfortable by Hekili and Lauren. Dr. Ching answered all my questions and has a great bed side manner. I will definitely be recommending him to my family and friends.
Great Service from Maria (Coordinator) and Trish (OR Nurse). They communicated and reassured me every step of my process. Mahalo nui loa ladies. Also, the other staff members and Dr. Smalls.
I enjoyed my consultation with Keri and Dr. ShimChing. I love the technology they have for me to get an idea of how I’d look like with the size breast I would like instead of just sizing with a bra on. They went over with me all that is needed to be heard, from what I would like done, to both of our expectations and procedures. I felt very comfortable talking with them, especially meeting Dr. ShimChing after seeing his amazing work via online and in the news. The staff / team he has have been great since the first phone call from Keri to assist with scheduling a consultation to pricing and everything else. Their financial options were available and within my budget. I know it will all be worth it next month once I get done with my scheduled appointment. I’m so excited for my day to come. Just being in their office made me feel safe and I can trust Dr. ShimChing and his team!
Dr. Shim Ching is a very well qualified and proficient plastic surgeon. I have been going to him for years and always feel very comfortable and confident that the results will be wonderful. I am a physician and am very particular about who treats me. I feel great, and I think I look wonderful.
Awesome experience! Dr. Ching and staff were very hospitable. Look forward to seeing my results! Thank you so much!
Patients are treated with the utmost courtesy, kindness, and patience by the doctor and staff. They are all professionals in every sense of the word. Dr. Shim Ching is gentle, expert and delicate when it comes to incisions and sutures and feelings and emotions, as well. Sutures and scars? I could not see them to count with the naked eye and now that I am 100% healed, cannot see scars to speak of. I am contoured exactly the way the doctor explained I would be, I am more comfortable in my body, can breathe and move with greater ease and would highly recommend this doctor above all others. Have I had other plastic surgeons? Yes. So I know what I speak and write of. There are none better than this doctor and there are none better than this facility. His surgi~suites are in the same building as his offices, there is ample parking, and a beautiful, quiet, cool and large recovery room. You are treated with kid gloves and that is no exaggeration. This doctor, at a time when he could stay home and stay rich, has also done, works of mercy abroad and has performed therapeutic surgeries for the underprivileged. He is a young, talented master and a kind, old soul. I dont know of another doctor like him. Have confidence when you call to make an appointment. I believe he will be at the top of his game for a very long time.
My experience with Dr. Shim Ching and all staff has been nothing short of amazing.Dr. Ching has shown to be a professional, knowledgeable surgeon, yet also developed great rapport with me. I felt comfortable moving forward with the breast augmentation procedure and confident that I chose the right facility.In regards to the facility; I was highly impressed with the cleanliness of the surgical suite. The suite is also accredited by the Joint Commission, meaning that they have demonstrated high quality health care and demonstrated high patient safety standards.The surgical staff that I had: RN Trisha, RN Lorene, RN Erin and Dr. Liu made me feel comfortable and lessened any anxiety that is expected prior to surgery. They were very informative and always willing to assist me or answer any questions or concerns that I may have had. They are truly exemplars of compassionate, safe, and patient-centered care. Nurse Lorene even called me the next day after the surgery to check on me.Keri, the patient coordinator, was a pleasure to work with as well. She was always prompt with pre operative checklist requirements and with all pre op, operative, and post op scheduling.Dr. Ching has a great team and I am extremely satisfied with my results and experience with his office. I would highly recommend this office.
Juanita was very skilled & professional. I had microneedling done, & the medical care (i.e., safeguarding for infection) was terrific as well as her concern for my comfort. I will go there again & wish I had not waited so long to go the first time!
Dr. Ching and staff are by far the best Ive seen during my years of experience as a nurse and now as a patient! The staff are amazingly welcoming and friendly, that when you enter the office, it feels like Home! Dr. Ching not only displays compassion and empathy towards his patients but his work as well! A stroke of genius and artistry in motion. Two thumbs up and more :))
Stacy and Nita are always on point with their injections. The amount of knowledge and skill they have is amazing.
I love coming here! Dr. Ching did my breast augmentation in 2009 which are still as perky as ever! Since Ive been continuing to see the aestheticians, Ive learned earned so much about how to properly take care of my skin and prolong aging. Ive been getting PicoSure for my dark spots for years and Ive noticed a huge difference in how well my skin feels and looks. Plus they carry both of my favorite skin care lines, skin medica and envirion.
I worked with Awa for laser hair removal. She made it so comfortable for me and was so professional. I was really happy with the results. The laser was painless unlike others I have experienced and my hair was thinner even after the first time.
When I approached Dr. Shim Ching regarding breast reconstruction after breast cancer in 2009, I was very pleased with how his clinic handled all the appointments, questions and procedures. Professional but very caring. Always willing to answer the phone, No long wait times and overall I felt very cared for. Thank you again Dr. Ching for making my reconstruction experience so very easy after a scary diagnosis and treatments.
Dr. Ching and his staff are very professional and all my experiences have been positive! They are conservative and listen to the patient and provide feedback and never push procedures that are not needed. The facility (both office and surgery center) are impeccably clean and tastefully decorated. I would highly recommend Dr. Ching for all procedures by him and his staff.Aloha, Beth Ann Shropshire
Asia Pacific Plastic Surgery offers reasonably priced beauty treatments in a clean and friendly environment. The bodily hair removal procedure is comfortable and effective with the up to date laser machine they have.
Amazing service. Dr Ching is amazing and is very professional. One of a kind experience. I would only recommend him to my family and friends.
I was super pleased with the service and practice of this office! It is a small but beautiful practice and everyone was professional and ready to help answer questions and see that I got exactly what I was asking for.
Dr. Shim Ching is great on what he does. I believe I found my doctor for life. Thank you Dr. Shim.
I know Dr Ching to be a professional, talented and conscientious surgeon who takes pride in the quality of his work and really cares for his patients. He has several years of experience in his field in addition to the many years of physician education at the highest levels. I would recommend anyone interested in possible plastic surgery to visit Dr Ching for a consultation.
The majority of services I have received were fair and beneficial however the one treatment I wanted to consider was a hair transplant and although expensive I would have considered it except for the fact that Dr. Ching doesnt perform the surgery himself..! The doctor has nurse/techs perform the actual graft removal and implants.Now for all the money hes charging I would want and expect the doctor to perform the process fully, beginning to end.
This is a wonderful place. I researched and researched for months. I wanted breast augmentation done and finally chose a couple places to go for a consult. Dr. Chings office was my first one and before I even left there I knew I wanted my surgery to be done by him. Its a beautiful office and the whole entire staff is so welcoming and friendly and not to mention so knowledgeable about everything. Before I even met with Dr. Ching I felt like I knew everything by his assistant. I decided right away that I was going to choose him for my surgery and quickly scheduled my surgery.

I have been coming to Asia Pacific Plastic Surgery for a few years now. In fact, I first became a client back when Dr. Ching had his office at Queens POB 3. That alone should be a testament of how professional and fantastic Dr. Ching and his facility are.Asia Pacific Plastic Surgery is located on the 8th floor of Hale Pawaa. There is valet parking and a ticketed parking structure. The stalls are large and the elevators run often in the structure so youre not waiting forever. Asia Pacific Plastic Surgery does validate your parking ticket for the first hour.When you get off the elevator, just head to the Diamond Head side of the building. Youll enter into one of the coolest waiting rooms Ive ever been in. The check-in desk is on your right. The ladies usually ask to validate upon check-in, so have that parking ticket handy. There are monthly specials displayed on the counter. There is a small refrigerator for you to grab water in the waiting area. Chairs and large ottomans are super comfy to sit in, though the wait is usual short.This past visit was a pre-op for me. My body needed a little help with a belly button issue that came up a few years ago and Dr. Ching was the one to help me with it.I first met with the nurse (sorry, I cant remember her name). She went over my history, asked if I knew what was happening, and then went over all the paperwork. She gave me my prescriptions and took down questions that I had for Dr. Ching. She left & returned with Dr. Ching. If you have never met Dr. Ching, you are in for a treat. That man is one of the most gentle & genuine people you could ever know. So, its a bonus if you choose him to be your doctor! We chatted for a few (as I said, Ive been a client for a while), then got down to business. He made sure I understood what was going to happen to my abdominal area & what his expectations were for the surgery. He answered all my questions and clarified anything that I was unsure of. After that, I was brought to another area for my pre-op pics. It was quick. It got me really excited about my upcoming surgery.The day of my surgery, the team working with Dr. Ching is equally awesome. They made sure I was comfortable every step of the way. They let hubby come in & hang out bedside after I was situated. While waiting, I got to check out the suite. It was immaculately clean, as any operating suite should be. The only difference is that it didnt make me nervous like other hospitals. Im not sure if it was the wall colors or just the upbeat nurses, but I actually felt comfortable. (If you know me, this is a big deal.) Dr. Ching came in to check on me & again gave me a clear vision of the final result. I was really excited! I was knocked out for surgery, but I was told it went really well. I havent seen the final work as I am still healing, but I will definitely update!If you couldnt tell, I will definitely be back to Asia Pacific Plastic Surgery and Dr. Ching. I feel that the care they put into you & your body AND the fact that they care about you is something you dont see much of nowadays. If you are looking for advice or want some help in the lines of plastic surgery, laser hair removal, Botox, or anything else, I definitely recommend Dr. Ching!
From start to finish my experience here was absolutely wonderful. Being in the medical field, I truly appreciate the excellent service from starting with the preop to the post op recovery when my surgical procedure was done. The staff at APPS are professional, courteous and warm and emphasize patient care. Dr. Ching is kind, patient, attentive and listened to my concerns so that the final outcome of my procedure was what I wanted. He gave me realistic expectations as to what to expect and made my first cosmetic surgical procedure a very pleasant one. The entire OR staff at APPS was amazing, the facility is top notch and I could not be any happier. Dr. Ching was thorough and even followed up the next day to see how I was doing. Wonderful doc, great staff, beautiful facility and excellent surgical skills, I am one very happy patient
Best experience! I would highly recommend Dr Shim Ching and his practice!
I have never had a surgical experience like I did with Dr.Shim Ching. He listened and did everything I asked. You see, My left silicone implant ruptured after 17 years. I originally went back to the doctor who performed the surgery 17 years ago and he quoted me $11,300!!! For a removal and replacement of implants that he put in!! I was quite upset by the disregard of a loyal patient that wanted to be fixed. I then went to Dr. Shim Ching. He not only promised to do what I wanted but to also remove some scarring aaaannnd he also worked within my budget, saving me over $2500 !! The whole experience was so comfortable, friendly and super professional!!! Yay for Dr. Shim Ching and his stellar staff!
Ive tried a photo facial & a chemical peel; So far, so good. I look forward to trying out other skin procedures.
Excellent services from Dr. Ching and his staff.
He was a great Doctor and did a great job . I will come back when I need another procedure. Staff is great too.
Shim Ching is very professional, pays attention to detail, has a mild mannerism and is an expert in his field. Hawaii is lucky to have him!
I had a great experience with Dr. Ching, and his staff are really nice. Ive already recommended him to few of my friends.
I was given all of the information I had asked for and would recommend others to go and see Dr. Shim Ching for all of their plastic surgery needs :)
I go to see Dr.Ching for Botox.He is the best.Before I went to see another Dr., but my smile was forced.
Excellent experience in every way. Informative, patient, respectful. Highly recommended.
Botox to major headaches to now brain fog since Nov 11, 2015 its on going ever since. Went to all my medical and specialist doctors however as they found out my blood test, CT scan and MRI was negative.Living with the fact that I wish I didnt have any Botox especially when Dr. Shim nurse with no medical degree injected me. Perhaps knowing now I wouldve request for the Dr instead whom is much more experience with Botox injections.
Dr Ching is the best doctor. Dr. Ching gave me the botox and he did a great job. Thank you Dr. Ching.
This place is amazing. I come here for ALL of my beauty needs. The very first treatment I had there was probably 6 years ago was laser hair removal. Not having to shave anymore is wonderful. I then decided to have breast augmentation :). I love them. Dr. Ching and his staff made me feel so comfortable and I am extremely happy with my natural looking results. Since then I got Botox injections in my frown lines. The aesthetic nurse injector (Tara) has such a gentle touch that I barely felt anything. She really took the time to explain everything to me. I am now getting laser facial treatments and chemical peels from the esthetician (Awa) to get rid of my dark spots that I got after having my son. And just a couple of weeks ago i got something new that they offer. Its called the Hydrafacial. I totally loved how it cleaned out my pores and made my skin feel so smooth and hydrated. I recommend that you call and check this place out for yourself. Make it your one-stop shop like I did.
I worked for two plastic surgeons when I was younger and saw what a huge difference a surgeon can make. So when it came time for me to consider my first plastic surgery a few months ago, I was concerned about finding the right surgeon. I didnt want to end up with an operated look, or appearing radically different, like some people Id seen before. I just wanted to look like a fresher, younger version of myself. Of course, I was also concerned that the surgery would be performed in a safe environment, with a highly competent anesthetist and skilled nurses assisting in the procedure.Several people I know had been to Dr. Ching and LOVED their results. I thought they looked amazing, too. So I decided to go ahead with a consultation. Dr. Ching really took his time with me, explaining the various procedures I could consider, and answering all of my questions. I didnt feel rushed, and was told to think things over before booking anything. I felt so good about Dr. Ching and his state-of-the-art facility, I decided within a couple of days that there was no need to look any further. I booked my surgery as soon as he could fit me in.After weighing all the options as far as procedures, I decided to start with an endoscopic forehead lift and upper/lower blepharoplasty with canthopexy. Im happy to say that the experience was first-class from start to finish. The office staff was very professional and helpful, the pre-op instructions were very clear and I was made super comfortable at check-in on the day of surgery. The anesthetist (Grace Liu) was incredibly attentive and put me at ease, as did the nurses (Cindy and Cathy). Recovery was quick, and I was on my way home soon afterwards.That was two and a half months ago, and Im DELIGHTED with the outcome. The results are subtle, yet striking. No more droopy lids or bags under my eyes!! I definitely plan to return to Dr. Ching for more work in the near future.Dr. Ching and his staff are the very BEST of the BEST! Highly recommended!
All of the staff are super nice !!!!! I feel welcomed at Asia Pacific and their place is very beautiful.
Last year, I realized that I have always taken care of those around me and failed to do more for myself. To love myself- and take care of my self and to be happy. This new realization caused meto look at all aspects of my life that I wanted to improve and polish on. My profession, I am a high fashion model and spokesmodel along with being Ms. HI 2011. Working in the fashion and spokesmodel industry pushes me to alway maintain my best in all aspects of my life- spiritually, mentally, emotionally and physically. One of the biggest challenges I (literally) face each day is the constant application of all sorts of makeup and products on my skin. I believe pure beauty starts from within and up to the skin. Beautiful skin equals the lesser need for makeup and allows your true beauty to shine through. Not to mention maintaining a healthy body! I work hard in all aspects of myself yet, this year I can focus more on the condition of my exterior. We all have things we would like to improve on, and this year, Im going to work on them! I was discussing this with my OB doctor and she suggested that I make a consultation with Dr. Shim Ching. As soon as I walked into Dr. Ching’s practice, I was relaxed and impressed. You have the sense of appreciated value and worth just from the environment alone as you walk through the front doors. During the consultation, the patient coordinator answered all of my questions and was very helpful and educational. Then Dr. Shim Ching reviewed the treatments and procesdures that I was interested in. From our consultation, I felt very comfortable and well informed. Not many doctors approach their patients the way that Dr. Shim Ching does. His attention to detail, his craft and his patients ensure you as a patient, the security of your desired results being placed in his hands. I look forward to the results and will respond with a follow-up review!
We were treated with professionalism and detail concerning our consultation and proposed scope of procedure. We are saving money so that we can have Dr. Ching perform the desired surgery.
I highly recommend Dr. ShimChing!
