David Hiroshima, MD

Dr. David Hiroshima (San Carlos, CA) is the best primary care physician I have ever had. He is smart, kind, and responsive. People like him are the kind of professionals who make America great. It’s a pity we cannot clone him. (Published Feb 2016.)

Lovely and knowledgeable MD. One of the best I ever had. Loving, caring, attemptive. He does take the time to listen to you and understand the context that you are coming from. I liked the fact that he is a family dr plus knowledgeable about natural medicine. These were the reason why I decided to give him a try. But on top of that, I found out that he won’t prescribe unless necessary. How happy I was! Hands down one of the best I’ve seen!

Thanks to all these helpful Unilocal reviews, I got myself a fantastic primary care physician, the best I have ever had! His medical advice was spot-​on and he was very competent, genuinely pleasant and caring. I felt he listened to my preferences, respected them and then tailored his advice/​treatment to provide me with a workable solution for my medical needs. I am really grateful to have found a doctor like him.

Hands down the best pcp. Takes the time to listen and as he calls it himself, «likes to think outside the box». Tries to help find out whats really causing symptoms and address that as oppose to just treating symptoms. Medicates when necessary but looks for long term solutions if something else is going on.

Hans K sounds like a serious drug user with more medical problems than Dr Hiroshima can fix. Exercise should be done right not to the point where you need opiates to continue exercising. I’ve used Dr Hiroshima for many years and he’s a good doctor, he won’t give you everything you ask for but he is caring and does want to get you in better health.

Best doctor I have ever had. Been going to him almost 3 years. He listens to what you tell him. A huge thing I dig is he doesn’t push prescription drugs on you. Great doctor.

I’m surprised Dr. Hiroshima even gets a one-​star review from anyone.
The handsome doctor has been the family PCP for a couple of years. My now teenage girls adore him and he only gives us nothing but the BEST care. What impressed me most is that after the baby was born, and he didn’t know I will elect him as his PCP, he showed up in the hospital early morning, on his dayoff, with a big smile and ready to give the newborn a warm welcome! He even did his circumcision. And I told him not to mess around with it. To that he replied, «You have nothing to worry about, I was going to be a professional origami artist before I became a doctor.»
I can go on and on with the compliments. But maybe the little details would just bore whoever is reading this. I never asked him for a prescription I didn’t get, if he deemed it necessary for me to get better. I also never asked for hydrocodone, but did get an unpleasant treatment from a doctor at PAMF Urgent Care when I did. So maybe, doctors are really just very cautious in dispensing this medicine. (I can see why.)
Dr. Hiroshima is unpretentious; he wouldn’t tell you he knows when he doesn’t but will find the answers. He will thoroughly explain things and let you know of step by step process for procedures. He is professional yet warm to his patients and I can’t remember a time when he can’t be available to us his patients when we needed to see him. Maybe one of the best doctors out there, in my opinion.

Best Doctor you can get :-)

Dr. Hiroshima is very kind and patient. He takes the time to listen to all your concerns and is always respectful. he’s also very honest, if he doesn’t have the exact answer for something he can always find out. Also he always makes himself available for his patients.

Dr. Hiroshima has been my doctor for a few years now and has always given great care. When offering treatment he has always given many options and worked with me on what fit my needs. I’ve appreciated his approach which has included medicines as well as helpful, simple exercises.
I highly recommend Dr. Hiroshima.

I went in for a physical with Dr. Hiroshima as a first time patient and I cannot believe how thorough he was. He addressed all of my questions with careful thought, time and patience. He focuses on prevention rather than medication and has many good recommendations for a healthy life style, but that doesn’t mean holds back on prescriptions either. I went in needing antibiotics and I got them. Overall, I felt very comfortable with him.
Going into this appointment, Dr. Hiroshima wasn’t my primary physician, but I did turn around and ask for that to be changed accordingly.

happy new year, and i hope you have fulfilling practice.

I have not had a primary care physician in years! And finally needed to go see a doctor so figured I might as well try to find a really good match sooner than later in case I ever come down with something super serious so I know I can trust them.
I have to say Dr. David Hiroshima has been that perfect match so far, I even convinced my Fiancé to go him too (he didn’t have a primary physician either)! I was a bit reserved at first because based on his background he’s relatively young/​new, but to my pleasant surprise, in meeting him he’s very mature, professional, intelligent and down to earth.
I feel comfortable asking him any questions without feeling awkward or dumb. Everytime I’ve needed an appointment I could get on the calendar fairly quickly, if not the same day. Dr. Hiroshima always takes the time to listen to my concerns and thoroughly explain his diagnosis.
What I really appreciate about him is he won’t try to «oversell» you a prescription unless really necessary. He’ll tell you how it is and give you options, recommendations and referrals if needed to help you recover asap.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Dr. David Hiroshima is the BEST Primary Care doctor, he is bright and you can see he is passionate about his work. Anytime I set an appointment with Dr. Hiroshima he would take the time to explain and listen to my concerns without making quick judgements.
Most primary care doctors see you quickly and do not offer much insight into your health. Dr. Hiroshima, although relatively young was always able to provide a high degree of health information. He is a Stanford grad and offers a good prespective on your health and will not hesitate to make recommendations or referrals for additional information gathering.
Without a doubt and by far the best Primary care doctor I have ever had. RECOMMENDED!

David Hiroshima, M.D. is a wonderful doctor. He is very considerate, honest, open, and very concerned about your issues as though they were his own. He gives you his professional opinion, but is open to what you have to say. He doesn’t rush the process nor does he he try to included expensive medical tests that need to only «confirm» his opinion. He is interested in getting to the root cause and believes in preventative medicine as well. I HIGHLY recommend him.
