Patient Reviews
Aug 27, 2020
We were beyond blessed to have been referred to Dr. Obayashi when our son was diagnosed with a heart condition in uterine. He was so thorough in explaining our son's diagnosis to the procedure he would need for repair to possible outcomes. Dr. Obayashi followed up with us from pregnancy through birth and is our son's primary pediatric cardiologist. He's been a true advocate for our son since he was born and put our minds at ease as we prepared our little warrior for heart surgery. He's not just your typical doctor, he is a super human that really cares. I highly recommend Dr. Derek Obayashi! We always look forward to our visits.
