The nurse Nancy was great. She said she was gonna call me back and she did. The doctor was great. He took time to listen and didn't rush. The guy who took my blood was fantastic and very personable! Shared his personal experience to make you feel at ease.

More about Dr. Peter Kaneshige, MD
For patient safety, MemorialCare Medical Group providers will not prescribe most controlled substances (including opioids like codeine, and benzodiazepines like valium) for new patients they have only evaluated via telehealth, rather than in person. Many controlled substances have a high potential for abuse, and overdose on controlled substances may result in death. Without an in person visit, the potential risk outweighs the intended benefit.
If you believe you may need a prescription for a controlled substance, please schedule an in person visit.

Worst doctor and facility I have come across. Have not seen a more money hungry doctor. We had got the blood tests done and the labs had sent the report to the doctor this morning. However we had not received the results until now. So we went down the memorial care facility in Torrance to get a copy of the report. However they refused to give the report till we see doctor again. But the doctor was not ready to see us today. He also does not have time to see the report. So if there is something urgent in the report this doctor and facility will let the patient suffer rather than give a copy of the report.

November 2, 2021Rolan I.Verified patient
Dr. Kaneshige certainly seemed knowledgeable and competent, but I am someone who needs to feel comfortable with a doctor (establish rapport, feel like I can ask less-than-intellectual questions, etc.). His manner is a bit clinical for my tastes (and both sort of dismissive of inquiries about alternative treatments yet unwilling to prescribe medication for ongoing issues), so we didn't really click, but some patients may prefer that.

I would totally recommend Dr. Kaneshige. Office was respectful of Covid protocols, the nurse was the best nurse I'd seen in years. Highly recommend.

I felt like this doctor actually listened to what I was saying and genuinely gave great advice. I didn’t have a Primary Care doctor yet, but after this experience I’m sold on him being mine!

Actually cares and does what he's supposed to do. I went to three doctors before this and they all did not do any of the typical annual physical treatments.

Dr. Kaneshige is very good a listening to a patient and discussing different possibilities and treatments. I have stayed with him even though he has moved his practice to an area far more difficult for me to get to because I have faith in his medical knowledge and attention and feel he is a good doctor for me to have at this time in my life.
