About Kristine M. Uramoto, MD

My goal is to provide you with personalized healthcare, which focuses on wellness and prevention of disease. As a board certified rheumatologist and internist who practices in Honolulu, I treat diseases that can affect the entire body. 

As a rheumatologist, I treat diseases such as Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, Sjogren’s Syndrome, Rheumatoid Arthritis, and Psoriatic Arthritis. When treating these diseases, I take into consideration your whole body; and now through my affiliation with MDVIP, we will have additional resources available to us that can be incorporated into your treatment plans. My MDVIP-affiliated practice offers services, including comprehensive, advanced health screenings and diagnostic tests, that go far beyond those found in concierge medicine practices. Being that I am a female physician and a breast cancer survivor, I also have a special interest in women’s health. 

I was born and raised in Maui and attended Baldwin High School. In my spare time I enjoy practicing Karate and have obtained a Black Belt. I hope to partner with you to create a healthy lifestyle incorporating unique and fun ways that relate to your hobbies.

The afternoon was special - yes, the summary of the results of the annual exam ... but it was special this time. Dr. Uramoto spoke about my special difficulties - and hers which are close to mine. How to arrange to consume liters of water! How she gets in her exercise - and I could too. Some pointers that came together. I believe I REALLY heard her this time . So, my hearty thanks to Dr.…

Unprofessional, uncaring and arrogant. Went to see this physician when I was in severe pain. She made me wait for an hour while she "caught up" with my medical records and did paperwork. She did not apologize and was VERY rude. I have worked in the medical field for 30 years and have never met a physician as uncaring and arrogant. I want to share this as I want to spare others from her totally unprofessional behavior.

She's amazing hands down THE BEST Rheumatologist in the state of Hawaii!! She's not only smart, and has a great bedside manner. But she's the type of doctors that goes home and still thinks about your case. You're her patient, not a number, or just a last name. I've been seeing Dr. Uramoto for about 10yrs. Her staff is awesome, and accurate as well; a combination that's hard to find in Hawaii.

Frequently Asked Questions

Doctors who operate in the MDVIP models typically see far fewer patients than traditional primary care doctors. That gives them more time to develop deeper doctor-patient relationships that can lead to better outcomes. They can also offer conveniences that most primary care doctors can’t, including same- and next-day appointments. They’re available after hours for urgent matters. And they have time to focus on prevention. That focus begins with the MDVIP Wellness Program, which patients pay for with their annual membership fee.

Most MDVIP-affiliated primary care practices accept insurance (your physician can tell you whether they accept your specific insurance plan). Your annual fee pays for preventive care medical services that insurance usually doesn’t cover (e.g., advanced diagnostic testing and screenings). Your MDVIP-affiliated physician will continue to bill your insurance and charge copays, co-insurances and deductibles as he or she currently does for other medical services like sick visits.

MDVIP makes wellness and prevention easier by providing your physician with innovative tools and technology. MDVIP supports your physician’s practice and seeks to eliminate barriers to a positive healthcare experience. Your doctor will determine whether and how to incorporate these tools at his/her discretion.
