Zena Monji's Online Review Report Card

Believe the bad reviews and don't waste your time like I did. You do not want to leave each appointment with this doctor with more questions than you started with. And it's absolutely irresponsible for a Doctor to disrespect their patients or talk to them in a condescending tone instead of respectfully informing them. After multiple appointments with Zena Monji, I refuse to be seen by her again. Don't waste your time.

Only see Dr. Monji if what you're really looking for is a dominatrix. She was rushed, pushy, judgmental, domineering, and rude, and she shouldered me into getting a pap smear I didn't need. I felt violated. It was an extremely uncomfortable experience and I won't be seeing her again. I wish I'd read the review from May 27, 2020 before I went - that's exactly what she was like.

I saw Dr Monji on Maui today for an IUD removal and replacement. This is a procedure that is known to be incredibly painful, physically and emotionally. Having had an awful first experience I knew I wanted pain management and to discuss options. The whole appointment was rushed and I felt completely unheard. She told me “it’s just a pinch” and “just like menstrual cramps” etc. which if you search the procedure, just check out what a tenaculum does. There are so many physicians advocating for better gynecological pain management and Dr Monji is not one of them. I was offered ibuprofen, and worst of all, when I was expressing how anxious I was feeling she just stone cold stared at me while continuing the exam. Lastly, afterwards while I was feeling nauseous and dizzy, she did not offer any bedside comfort. She simply said “this is normal” and then walked out leaving the nurse to finish up. So terrible. I will not be back to her.

Rude doctor, terrible experience and told me I was lucky she was an anesthesiologist, so I could have some pain relief during childbirth. Her nurse dropped the ball and didn’t do her job in time, which made the patient suffer. Nurses and doctors should be held to a higher standard. That’s the last time she saw my vagina.

Rude, not considerate... Makes ppl cry! Not gentle not thoughtful not a good doctor!!!!!!! What a P.O.S.!!!

Dr Monji Delivered all three of my children and did my hysterectomy, she was always professional and very caring.

This doctor does not belong on Maui. Maybe she doesn't deserve to be an obgyn at all. I hate to say it, but I believe she is racist. I am a local Hawaiian/filipino and this doctor told me "you need to stop having kids. You need to get your tubes tied." I am pregnant with my fifth child. How many children I choose to have is non of her business and I did not ask for her opinion. I will be changing doctors. Maui mommies watch out. I went home crying.

Horrible experience. Unpleasant and unprofessional. Has no compassion at all. Why become a doctor ? I felt violated because of the war she conducted an exam, she also would not answer any questions I had about health of my first ever future baby, would not make eye contact. Would not recommend to anyone ever! Horrible person and extremely disrespectful

Unfortunately, I had a really terrible experience with Doctor Monji. She now works in Maui at the Community Clinic of Maui. Upon arrival I was asked to sign paperwork stating that I see through my pregnancy at their clinic. I was honest with the nurse and said I haven’t decided yet, as I am a first time mother, nervous, and I have yet to even meet a doctor. She said that’s ok and people transfer sometimes. Well apparently that was not ok with Doctor Monji. She was clearly furious upon entering the room and didn’t even look at me once during my appointment. I was completely naked as we were doing a pelvic and breast exam and she was painful, abrasive and did not talk me through anything she was doing. The only thing she said to me was, “I hear you may want to go with another clinic. I suppose we can check your bloodwork anyway.” As she proceeded to slam things and had the most aggressive demeanor I’ve ever seen from a doctor. I was holding back tears the entire appointment as I felt so violated as she was examining my privates and treating me so poorly. As a woman, she should be ashamed to treat a new expecting mother this way. How big is her ego? How could she be so upset with me wanting the right to choose my doctor after meeting her? Of course, I will not be going back there and would strongly recommend any woman to not put themselves through that experience.

A biopsy isn't very pleasant and is also quite painful. Having a doctor that is Insensitive and self absorbed doesn't make this procedure go any smoother, aggressively doing the procedure while you're climbing out our stirrups onto the table crying and begging her to please stop. Her comment and response to me, You are only making this harder on yourself! Really... No common human kindness and comforting words, like maybe talk you through it like others do. I felt that she was rude and talked down to me when being asked questions about my medical history. I was curious if even one else had experienced this type of treatment, so I looked her up online. Sure enough there it is. Yes, I am not alone in having experiencing this traumatizing horrific, belittling type of unprofessional treatment by this traveling doctor. Today I decided to speak up and let others know about my recent experience.
