TL;DR: if you are looking for a provider who takes pain management seriously, do not see Andrea Wieland
Front desk staff is very nice. Andrea was also very nice and I appreciated the time she took to explain to me what a colposcopy was and that she made sure all of my questions and concerns were addressed. During the procedure, she narrated what she was doing which I also appreciated.
I did not appreciate that she didn't take my pain concerns seriously. In hindsight I realize I needed to say that I wanted pain management for the procedure and be firm about that request, but I had never had a colposcopy before and thought I could trust Andrea. She told me it would be uncomfortable at worst. She was wrong. The colposcopy wasn't as painful as getting my IUD put in, but it was close. The pain sucked, but what made it worse is that I was lead to believe that it would not be painful.
When I had expressed my concerns about pain, she told me that local anesthesia would hurt more than the procedure itself, but after having the procedure I highly doubt that. She didn't mention anything like lidocaine gel or spray, which I learned were pain management options after the fact. All in all, if you are looking for a provider who takes concerns about pain seriously, I would not recommend trusting Andrea Wieland with your care.

Five stars for the great, wonderful doctor who is warm, empathetic and knows her stuff! However, no stars for the experience of trying to book an appointment. After being on hold for several minutes, a prerecorded message comes on saying, “If this is a medical emergency, please call 911 or go to your nearest emergency room. This line does not accept voicemails.” After going through this 4 times, I am beginning to wonder if anyone even answers the phone.

Highly recommend having Vaginal laser treatment. The sooner the better, don’t wait, at age 44 I started having stinging, burning itching pain, the inside of my vagina felt as if a cactus had taken up shop. I went to several doctors, I thought I had a yeast issue I was given creams’ that didn’t help. I was put on estrogen cream and had a headache for over 3 months. I still was dry, had pain with intercourse. My tissue was splitting and tearing open and at no time did any of my doctors recommend vaginal laser treatment. I was miserable living with an angry vagina. I had known about vaginal laser treatments and set out to get this treatment. I called around and felt most comfortable with Andrea Wieland, APRN. From the moment I had my consultation my questions were answered with one of the kindest compassionate professional persons I know. I couldn’t be happier with my results. Amazing to finely evict the nasty cactus out. If you do one thing for yourself this should be it. Results immediately, so many benefits, instant relief from dryness, restores lubrication, tightening, also helps with urine incontinence.

Dr. Ushijima spends an inordinate amount of time to make me feel comfortable and relaxed. Her bedside manner is exceptional. Her pelvic exams are speedy and painless. She has the fastest hands in the practice. I feel very comfortable in asking discreet questions. Thank you, Dr. Ushijima!

Short wait time after sign-in. Nurse was thorough gathering patient information. Dr. Rudy was comforting, understanding, and patient. She listened without interrupting and maintained some warm chatter going to distract the mind during a painful procedure. She explained everything before, during, and after the check-up making the entire visit more pleasant than it typically is with others.

I have never left a review for anyone or anything before, but after seeing Andrea Weiland for the past couple years, I felt I was overdue. Andrea Weiland is by far the best doctor I have ever had. Not only is she incredibly knowledgeable, but she has the kindest, warmest energy to her. She always makes me feel comfortable and I couldn't ask for a better care provider. I will continue my services at Hawaii Womens Healthcare for the sole reason of having Andrea as my doctor.

This was my first visit . The moment I walked into the doctor’s office, her staff was very friendly and made me feel welcomed. I am very happy I took my Dr. Kurata’s advice to see Dr.Leialoha. She is straightforward, organized and kind. I feel I am in good hands.
Thank you.
