Dr. Miyamoto became inspired to pursue pediatric medicine after a cousin died of leukemia at age seven. “I love children. They make me laugh and smile,” comments Dr. Miyamoto who enjoys “caring for the wide range of diseases and health issues” and cherishes the relationships he’s established with parents and families. A native of Arcadia, Dr. Miyamoto played water polo, basketball and swam in high school. Married for over 30 years, the father of three stays active with golf, running, skiing and mountain biking and belongs to ChildD, a nonprofit organization that provides resources to students with learning disabilities.

So sad to let go.of our previous pediatrician. But when we switched over to PIH physician due to insurance I was worried that it will be hard to find a pediatrician that will take good care of my son. Dr Miyamoto is highly recommended. He explains everything thoroughly. And encourages to ask questions. Staff are very nice. Highly recommended

Dr. Miyamoto is an excellent professional. He asks questions, listens carefully, and provides great answers and suggestions. He and the staff are kind, patient, and friendly. We love coming to the office because we will receive the best care.

We arrived 15 minutes early as requested, but ended up waiting over an hour and 30 minutes to see the doctor, who was busy training a new pediatrician. The experience was far from pleasant

This appointment felt like a waste of time. My daughter has had headaches for two-three weeks now. The doctor conducted a physical exam. To bluntly state make sure she drinks a lot of water and get sleep. I explained that she does both. He stated to keep a diary of when these headaches happen and started to walk out the room. I asked then what? He stated eventually we will need to do more exams and walked out. Not much of a diagnosis or thoughts on what it could be at all. Just stated the obvious of having her rest and drink water which isn't the problem since we do that already. On top of that, we had to wait an hour for him to come into the room to see us for only 10 minutes. He isn't her normal doctor. He was just the one we could see the soonest, so I will have to make another appointment with her doctor since I didn't get much from him.

Hi. A way of improvement is the amount of time that the appointments actually take. We scheduled a 10:20 and a 10:40 appointment and didn't leave the office until afternoon. So we spent more than an hour and a half there. So a lot of that was waiting to be seen. It would be nice if we can cut down that time. The staff is always very professional and friendly. And we always get quality care. It's just the waiting time that's really hard.

Dr. Miyamoto is awesome. My kids have had other doctors in the past, but no one compares to Dr. Miyamoto. He actively listens to our concerns and addresses our questions completely. We have never felt rushed during appointments as he always takes the time to explain everything. Additionally, we feel valued as parents because he involves us in our children's plan of care. We fully trust Dr. Miyamoto's recommendations. His clinical judgment and problem-solving skills are always on point. I truly hope Dr. Miyamoto continues his medical practice with PIH for many more years to come.

I had two kids. They had appointments back to back, one at 4 and one at 420. I did not get seen by the doctor until past an hour of waiting in the room. I kept asking the nurses, one nurse in particular, what was happening, why was it taking so long? And she just kept saying, oh, he has one more ahead of you, one more ahead of you, and come to find out at the end that he didn't see us on purpose because we had two kids back to back. He was seeing all the other kids that were just one kid, which is not fair because I had an appointment and I had to wait until the end. We got out and it was already dark in the office. So I do not appreciate that that is not okay to have me wait just because I have two kids back to back. They should take the appointments accordingly and respect your time and not have you wait and the nurses not lie to you when you're not done.

Dr. Miyamoto is the BEST Pediatrician! Both my girls love him. He is so kind and gentle and really takes his time.

I had to call to get an appointment after hospital discharge. Thank you for accommodating me. In general, I am becoming more frustrated with appointment availability.
May 13, 2024
Oops, so I kind of made a mistake on when I pressed 2. No, Miyamoto definitely showed a lot of respect. He was really nice. He was really cool. Kara was great. I did make a mistake. I meant to press 4 on 2. So yeah, I made a little mistake. Sorry about that. Thank you. It was amazing. Bye.

I would like to say they did very well with my son who has autism. I felt the staff was very attentive and adapted well with him. And as a mother, I truly appreciated that. Thank you.
April 25, 2024
Office needs to do a better job in scheduling appointments. My sons appointment was at 4:40 and we waited one hour so see the doctor. I don't feel that appointments are respected.

Dr. Miyamoto should get an award for the excellent work he does. He goes above and beyond to address my concerns. He is very knowledgeable, attentive and personable with my infant. As a first time mother, he never dismisses any of my many questions. I would recommend this Pediatrics office to all of my family and friends. I'm so grateful for the excellent care and treatment I receive every time at this clinic. From the front office to the medical assistants, everyone is very friendly.

February 27, 2024
Dr is so caring and really listens to me and my husband. I think he was backed up the day of our visit with patients which is a staffing/office issue. He is truly incredible and I would wait as long as I need to have my children under his care.
February 26, 2024
Dr. Miyamoto was so great. He listened carefully and talked to my daughter very kindly. He talked to her to get to know her a little and told her exactly what he was doing as he was checking her. Office staff was great and the office was very neat and clean. My 6 year old says she wants to come back as she likes it here and says he was very gentle when checking her. Thank you dr. Miyamoto.
February 02, 2024
Dr Miyamoto has been our pediatrician since my son was born and he is now 15. Every visit he is thoughtful, thorough, takes time to listen and answer questions. I feel fortunate to have had him as our dr. Not looking forward to finding a new dr one when my son turns 18

We had such a wonderful experience starting with the office staff to the nurses and Dr. Miyamoto.
November 30, 2023
Waited about 45 minutes for the doctor to see my child. Usually the wait time is shorter. It was hard to keep my child calm while waiting in the exam room for that amount of time.
November 27, 2023
Dr. Miyamoto is the best doctor I have ever had. Very dedicated to my children. We really love him.
