The wait time was 40 minutes past my scheduled appointment.
Provider gave an excellent explanation of my problem without being too technical. Plan of care was also explained in great detail without being too complicated.
Dr Hirose is an exceptional provider.
Dr hyrosie i Is one of the best doctors I have ever been to he has experience education personal manners everything you would want in a doctor highly recommended
Dr. Hirose is very kind and explains things well
Visits are very quickly concluded, but I realize they are very busy also
Dr Hirose is the epitome of what a good doctor should be. Attentive and kind, while still being very professional. Although he must be overwhelmed, most days, with patients, he never gives off an air of being rushed, and always listens to what I have to sayd H
Highly recommend & has a wonderful reputation with patients
Very helpful
It was a great experience
A wonderful doctor, just seemed a bit rushed this time
Very professional
I felt as if I was dealing with a friend in deed.
Very caring and explains everything well.
Great experience
He's my favorite physician.
Excellent clinic
Looking forward to getting the surgery done.
I’ll be happy to let you know after my surgery
Outstanding
Would give him the highest recommendation
Best dr.
Knows the issue I'm dealing with and the options to consider.
Felt very rushed in pre and post op. He came in so early to do his rounds, 6:30 am or 7, it was hard to be clear with questions ect.
N/A
Would highly recommend this provider
I feel very confident the surgery scheduled in May will resolve the problems with my left foot and ankle.
Dr Hirose’s fine reputation preceeded him. He was recommended by both my family doctor, Kirk Prodzinski and the staff at Kadlec hospital in Richland, Washington. I was told he is the best doctor in the northwest for podiatry. I can confirm.
I'll be back
Having caring professionals is very important when you are in a challenging situation.
Regarding my review of Dr. Hirose, please remove specifics of my responses to avoid identification as I have future appts with him and likely a procedure. Thank you
Great
All very good!!
When I discussed shoes, he was very helpful in making recommendations and worked with me to discuss my needs with the pedorthist at Rosendahl shoes.
Thank you Dr Hirose!!
Excellent overall care
Need to get things fixed right even if there might be a scare issue.
Dr. Hirose has always been very thorough with his medical terminology, describing what my situation is what my choices are, and the likelihood of success. He always mentions any of the risks that might occur, and make sure that you know all the information needed to make a decision for treatment
Thank you for your service to me and my family. Blessed to know you care so much.
I appreciate Dr Hiorse he was able to get the right care for me after a long time
Been seeing him for 14 years and I am blessed to have him take care of me and [person]. He did her surgery and I also referred my [person]. We have a genetic bone disease and he knows how to treat our needs. Thank you so much for your service to all my family that you have treated.
Although he is a busy surgeon he takes the time to listen to your ailment and offer solutions.
Thank you so much!!!
Diagnosis, surgery and follow up have been awesome. Highly recommend
Thank you!
The communication was particularly excellent
None
My only issue, is that I had to wait several months to get into clinic. I have been struggling for 2 years with this issue. But I am grateful I made it in and I think he knows what is wrong
I couldn't get back to my unfinished previous comment. Dr Hiose and his staff have provided excellent care and their office and waiting area are very nice too which makes a difference to me
good
dr. Hirose has been my Doctor for a long time and I wouldn't want to go anybody else!
Truly invested in the patient
I had great confidence in my care.
Look forward him repairing my foot
As a parent I of course hated tje rjought of this surgery. Dr. Hirose and his team made it as smmoth as humanly possible. I juat don't the words to express that enough.
Dr Hirose was able to narrow down the issue with my foot.
Excellent care
Dr Hirose is a great practitioner, he obviously knows what he's doing, answers questions in an understandable way, is carefully concerned about pain, and just an all around fantastic practitioner. Many thank you's to him.
Very impressed with Dr Hirose
Dr. Hirose and his staff are exceptional.
Excellent surgeon
He is great
I had an excessively long wait to see the doctor during this last visit. That was unusual.
Not now
Looking forward to surgery with him
My first operation was a complete success and this surgery seems like it’s headed for the same results. I don’t have a worry at all.
I would certainly recommend others to his care.
This appointment is worth while.
Great experience
Excellent care
Very attentive and explanatory
I'm grateful for Chris's care and expertise. He has always approached me and my foot issue with professionalism
I completely trust Dr. Hirose.
Nice experience, answered my concerns
Everything went well and questions answered.
Thank you Dr. Hirose and staff… you are the best!
Great foot and ankle specialist.
Thoughtful, courteous, friendly, and always looking for ways to increase my well being!
The provider is very attentive.
Dr Hirose made this whole surgical experience as comfortable as it possibly could be. He’s simply the best
Excellent work given the context of always being rushed. And, of course, accessibility is a problem, a major problem.
Dr Hirose and staff are wonnderful. You don't find this type of care, kindness, respect and true concern from many doctors orvtheir staff. Thank you for all you do!
I have been a patient of Dr Hirose’s for awhile and have never doubted why I chose to see him for my care. He is an outstanding physician and committed to excellent care.
nothing
Everything went so well that my husband has scheduled to see Dr. Hirose for his foot issues, which husband has not wanted to get seen for, for years. Dr. Hirose ought to be training other docs, how to relate & visits with patients : > .
Very good experience all around
Simplemente el mejor de este estado
Will be back! Always makes my foot better
Dr. Hirose is awesome.
Have been seeing Dr Hirose for several years. He and his staff have always provided fantastic care.
I got home and realized I should have asked for more explanation to what I was dx'd with.
Poor Scheduling of personnel on your part.
Dr Hirose is a great doctor and I had a lot of confidence in him.
Excellent care by EVERYONE I encountered ! Every staff member was wonderful and it’s no wonder the staff is so great ! My doctor was absolutely 💯 in every area.
Excellent care. I could have gotten a sooner appointment with another Physician but opted to wait another month to see Dr. Hirosi.
Good
After struggling for two years when a surgeon at St. Luke's never even once saw me, I asked my family physician who would be best to see and he answered, "Dr. Hirose". That was the best advice I ever received because Dr. Hirose removed all the metal and screws from my ankle and now, I'm walking again. How great is that? He saw me at every appointment and was always friendly and helpful. Thank you, Dr. Hirose! Diane
Great listener--thanks.
Dr. Hirose is a great foot surgeon. I had a surgery on the same foot before which was botched. So, he inherited a bad situation and had to pretty much reconstruct the bone alignment of all my toes on my right foot. He did an amazing job!!!
He said "you decide, this is your foot, you have to walk on it and live with it."
Thoughtful, experienced and kind in his communication
He and his team have significant experience in providing care for my foot issues.
Dr. Hirose to the time to explain treatment options and explain I everything to my partner and myself. When explaining surgery aftercare he would make good eye contact with my partner so she understood what my recovery would be like and the areas my partner would need to help. My partner [name] felt very involved in the treatment discussion which she very much appreciated.
I will recommend this provider and staff to anyone needing foot care.
Front office people are rude! Have to call multiple times to get info send to correct places.. insurance, pre-auth, MRI, PT.. Dr Hiroshi is outstanding!
Dr Hirose and his team expedited the surgery. I am very happy with the appointment and scheduling.
If i ever have any other foot or ankle injuries i will go to dr. Hirosa.
thank you
Seemed very knowledgeable.
I had a very good experience with Dr. Hirose and his office staff. Also the hospital staff I interacted with on the day of surgery.
My Dr. is extremely good!!
Close attention to details of my injuries
The doctor’s office was running so far behind in their schedule. We were there at 10:15 as we were told and didn’t see the doctor until 11:30..
Dr Hirose is great
I am lucky to have Dr. Hirose taking care of my foot!
All Drs need to take the time and listen to their patients not just Dr Hirose but all Drs. They get in to big of a hurry knowing they have more patients to see and don't often take the time to really listen.
Sin duda el mejor proveedor de todo el este 100%garantizado
I would, and will, recommend Dr. Hirose and his staff to anyone who asks
Look forward to my next visit
Dr Hirose schedule is established in a way that all of my concerns were not answered.
Total ankle replacement 18 months ago. Excellent result.
He is good at explaining
I appreciated the professionalism of all the people I dealt wit. I really liked Dr. Hirose and felt that he wanted to do the best he can for me.
Very understanding and personable
Wonderful
Dr Herosi is a professional as he goes about his business
Has been extremely helpful in past
looking forward to our next encounter
again, I felt very rushed by Dr. Hirose. I had the surgery so I would no longer require cortisone shots and that was the future recommendations. I didn't get a chance to talk about it.
Dr Hirose is very good
The staff needs training and processes need improved, including communications.
See question 1 for the top points.
very conscientious, created an arch where there was none...only time will tell if that works
I will return for surgery and care… thank you!
Aplus
Excellent foot care.
Dr Coughlin and Dr Hirose mean have given me the best shot of having the best quality of life possible. I will nevet be able to repay them.
I was diligent in having my records sent to the doctor. I had my prior office send the x-rays too, and Dr. did not have them in my record or did not try to upload them. I had to have another set of x-rays performed. But, he did get my CT scan. Not sure why my x-rays were not in the file. I wanted him to see my foot prior to my last surgery. My last surgery by another doctor turned out to be a mess for various reasons..
I won’t go any place else for my care.
Very professional and informative
Love
Felt rushed but understandable because they were very busy.
I respect Dr Hirose and the care he administers.
So glad my PCC referred me to Dr. Hiruse
Horrible provider
Very pleased with my visit
The visits are very quick, and it feels like the provider is in a rush. The provider is kind and listens, it just seems a bit on the quick side.
Doctor postponed my surgery several times. The last time was for over a month so he could attend a seminar. I was in horrific pain the whole time.
Dr Hirose is a top notch doctor. So smart and is so careful and kind. Best doctor ever.
I have no quarrel with the quality of care by the physician. The processes to check in and the waiting too long are the problem.
Can’t recommend highly enough.
Very kind, caring and extremely competent.
Always knowledgeable and understanding
It seem that the time allotted is to small for the DR, I understand he is working under a time frame
I know he went above and beyond to fix my foot!
Excellent care from Dr. HEROSE.
I had so many questions but felt a bit rushed.
The staff was excellent
There was swift action with my little problem
Very positive experience!
Very good service.
Dr Hirose and team are amazing. They are kind and compassionate
He is incredibly knowledgeable, observant and kind.
Very professional and caring
Trustworthy, engaging, pleasant, and thorough.
Very knowledgeable.
I drive from Burley because I know I will get the best care, it is worth the drive!
From every thing I have seen, he is one of the best in this area.
Was given a good dose of information to process, and I'm hoping it will help me going forward once I better understand what it means.
Dr Hiroshi was awesome
Great doctor
Very good.
Dr Hirose is amazing! I highly recommend him.
The room was filthy with a used adult diaper on the floor and trash everywhere. The nature of the injury was never explained to me. A do tried to reduce the arm but wondered why it never stayed place. When I got a look at the x ray the answer was obvious.
Hirose is a rock star! I tell everybody I know to go to him.
The pain management NP directly interfered with my Doctor's prescribed pain regimen and caused me to have an extremely bad high pain night after the nerve block on my right foot wore off. The nurses were unable to provide the level of pain meds required to solve the problem until the next day, after I spoke with my doctor. The NP made it a point to let me know that she had "the last word" and not my doctor. Highly unprofessional!
I already answered this
I found Dr. Hirose to be very knowledgeable and professional
*Dr. Hirose performed ankle surgery one year ago. This was a follow-up checkup. He is an excellent physician & takes time to listen & explain things. We would certainly recommend him to others!
*Dr. Hirose always listens to me, answers questions is respectful, kind & polite..
I understand *Dr. Hirose is well regarded. However, from the moment he entered the exam room it felt like he was in a hurry to be done with me. Brusque and condescending. Barely listened. Demeaning. I'm not sure what I will do next concerning my foot pain. He basically threw a Rosendal's paper at me when I said I wasn't ready for an MRI & surgery. No consideration for the financial decision. No discussion about timing or 'what if' scenarios. I waited 2 1/2 months for this appointment and was rushed out. Frustrated - Yes very.
*Dr. Hirose is always kind, patient and very approachable.
Grateful for important hammertoe procedures on right foot. Looking forward to hammertoe reparations done on opposite foot in the near future.
Did not know what floor to go to - stopped elevator on each floor. Never had to wait - even when we arrived early.
Great, I feel Dr. Hirose listens to me,
Good
I have had four surgeries on my right foot trying to get my toes straight. They still are not straight. The second toe still comes up over my big toe. I want my feet to be comfortable in shoes. Having a toe sticking up is not comfortable. I have been not willing to consider amputation. Just not totally happy my toes are not straight.
Very exceptional and highly professional medical care! Dr. Hirose took additional time to thoroughly explain what needed to be done and made certain that I understood, very clearly.
I was already doing physical therapy & the dr's nurse sent me to one to the area I was from, instead of sending a continuous referral to the current P/T. That's why they need to read better - & ask the patient before they do the task. I think they need to do x-ray follow up to see improvement.
Dr Hirose is a first rate provider! He & his staff have been wonderful to deal with!
Dr Hirose is a very caring doctor. He is professional, respectful and is genuinely cares about his patience. Very respectful to his staff.
Always pleasant and answers my questions.
Overall good.
Outstanding physician and office staff.
Very good, My choice not to proceed with his recommendation
Always a good experience with any part of St. Alphonsus team.
I feel so lucky and. Blessed to have Dr . Hiroshi take care of me and fix my ankle!
Dr. Hirose and his staff are excellent. The staff at Saint Als were awesome as well, can't say enough how great they were.
I only want to tell them thank you to each one of the people that work in this hospital. Thank you very much for your time and dedication but above all thank you for their service.
Excellent- a wonderful and caring doctor.
He is knowledgeable. He seems in a hurry but not pleasant, could use more humor.
This was a very informative, helpful visit where all my questions were answered.
My experience was very good from receptionist to all staff and *Dr. Hirose. I felt *Dr. Hirose diagnosed correctly and gave clear instructions for addressing the problem. I trust *Dr. Hiroshi & would refer others to him.
Overall a good visit all staff from front office, X-ray, medical student to Dr. Hirose very professional, spent extended time with me made up for the wait. Waiting for Dr.seeing other patients, he spent ample time with me as well.
The provider is excellent in his bedside manner and explaining procedures. He seems very interested in me as a person.
Dr. Hirose is always very professional and courteous. He answers all my questions and we weigh out options each time I see him. He is a great provider.
Dr. Hirose was very informed when he first came in to exam room. He explained what he was seeing on the x-rays and what explained very clearly the options. He actively listened to my concerns and acted to alleviate my concern by an additional x-ray and explanation. I felt cared about and listened to by Dr. Hirose.
Dr. Hirose is very caring, concerned and thorough. Very impressed with the results of the surgery. He could have explained more thoroughly what he did with the surgery but I'll request a detailed description on my follow-up visit.
I would & have recommended *Dr. Hirose to 2 of my friends that need a foot/ankle specialist we live in Ketchum and are more then willing to drive to Boise for good/great medical care.
Excellent provider
He couldn't have been better.
*Dr. Hirose is very good. I always enjoy my visits even if injections are used. He always come up with a way to try & relieve my pains.

The visit was positive. I had not seen him for eleven years, but he seemed familiar w/my case.

Dr Hirose was an excellent provider, quite knowledgeable, his demeanor was openness and attentive. He took X-rays in the office and related his findings during the visit. He offered several alternative routes of treatment and was able to carry out unplanned treatment, which proved to be quite helpful.
very good..complete
Positive, thorough, relieved we found some one who understood my problem.
Very good.
Very good.
