Traveling Patients

At Asia Pacific Plastic Surgery, we are accustomed to having patients fly in for Dr. Shim Ching’s artistry and expertise. Because of this, we tailored our practice to accommodate patients, no matter where they are visiting from.

Dr. Shim Ching is a Honolulu-based plastic surgeon who is a leader in the field of aesthetic surgery. Beyond his Oahu patients, Dr. Ching also draws patients from Maui, Kauai, the Big Island, and throughout the Hawaiian Islands. In addition to his Hawaiian patients, he also sees patients from across the United States and internationally.

Out-of-Town Patients

One of the benefits of visiting our location is that we are in beautiful Oahu, Hawaii. This allows patients to not only enjoy a vacation during their treatment visit but also stay in world-class hotels that are conveniently located near our medical facility. During the planning process, our staff can help recommend accommodations that fit your budget and needs and that will keep you comfortable during your visit. Our office is also located close to Honolulu International Airport (HNL), which has flights from several of the Hawaiian Islands, as well as the United States, Canada, Japan, and more.
