Dr. Chris Yim
Dr. Chris was born and raised in Kaneohe. Before his father, Dr. Paul Yim retired, he had the wonderful opportunity to learn and work alongside him as a pediatric dentist. If he's not in the office, he enjoys tide pooling and playing Pokémon Go with his sons, and playing pickleball with his wife. He also enjoys diving, playing basketball, and serving in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
I am grateful to be treating the children of my childhood hometown. As a parent of two young boys (and a baby girl on her way), I understand how important it is to treat each child as your own, and to help them feel comfortable so that they can receive the best dental treatment possible.

TESTIMONIALS
We love going to Dr. Chris. He makes my kids feel safe and comfortable and I feel completely at ease with them under his care. When my youngest had a trampoline accident, Dr. Chris took my emergency call immediately and got us right in. My front-toothless boy (who as a result of the accident ended up losing his front two wiggly baby teeth) was all smiles on the way home. My middle son is a freshman in college, but he likes Dr. Chris so much that he made sure that I made him an appointment for him while he is home for the holidays.

My son with ASD has a severe oral aversion. Dr. Yim is compassionate, patient, professional, trustworthy, and calm and has made it possible for my son to receive his necessary oral care.
- Alise Ward,
Parent of patient
Nothing but great things to say about Dr. Chris and his staff! From the reminder calls about appointments to the care they provided to each of my kids, it was always a good experience! Dr. Chris is thorough yet quick with his work which is important with kids and he always met with me after to explain any issues and what treatments were needed. Because of him, my kids are not scared of the dentist! Mahalo to Dr. Chris and all his staff!”
