“We believe every child deserves warm, unhurried care — and every parent deserves to be heard.”

Kids Thrive Pediatrics is a single-practitioner clinic — which means your family sees the same familiar face every visit. Dr. Shaner provides professional medical services for patients from birth through college, in a friendly and compassionate atmosphere.

Whether it's your newborn's first check-up or your teenager's sports physical, you're getting continuity, not a conveyor belt.

Because picking a pediatrician
is kind of a big deal.

01

Same doctor, every time

You won't rotate through a roster. Dr. Shaner knows your kid, their history, and what worked last time.

02

Unhurried visits

Appointments run long enough to actually talk. No rushing you out before the real question gets asked.

03

Same-day sick care

Call us in the morning, come in the afternoon. We keep slots open for the unpredictable stuff.

04

Centrally located on Liliha Street with easy parking — not a hospital-maze you have to navigate solo.

Come say aloha.

We're centrally located in Honolulu with free parking, a warm waiting area, and a team ready to make every visit feel less clinical — more kind.
