Kauai Medical Clinic: Big time care, small town caring.
Kauai Medical Clinic combines the intimacy of a neighborhood clinic with the resources of one of Hawai‘i's largest multi-specialty clinic. Clinic physicians are in nearly every neighborhood in Kauai to serve our island community.
In 1966, the hospital built an outpatient clinic with space for six physicians and 24 exam rooms. In 1967, the Kauai Medical Group was formed and joined the hospital as G.N. Wilcox Memorial Hospital and Health Center. In 1996, the clinic's name changed to Kauai Medical Clinic and was formally affiliated with Wilcox Memorial Hospital — which is collectively known as Wilcox Health.
The Evolution of Kauai's Healthcare Network
Today, the clinic has expanded to include more than 70 physicians and mid-level providers offering over 21 medical specialties at 4 locations on Kauai. The clinic continues to provide the majority of primary and secondary care to Kauai's people. It is the island's only multi-specialty medical group and the largest clinic on the island.
The Kauai Medical Clinic has a main clinic adjacent to the hospital and satellite clinics around the island. Satellite clinics are convenient for patients living in different areas of the island. Some clinics also offer visits by specialists on specific days so that patients don't have to travel to Lihue. Making healthcare accessible to Kauai residents is a priority for Kauai Medical Clinic staff. By establishing community-based clinics, Kauai Medical Clinic continues to work toward exceeding patient expectations.
Kauai Medical Clinic operates in four locations, with the following specialties:
- Main Clinic, Offering over 21 specialties, including Anesthesiology, Cardiology, Emergency Medicine, Family Practice, Gastroenterology, Infectious Disease, Hospitalists, Urgent Care, Internal Medicine, Neurology, Obstetrics and Gynecology, Oncology and Hematology, Orthopedics, Otolaryngology, Pediatrics, Health Management Program, Radiology, Surgery, and Urology.
- Kapaa Clinic, family practice and internal medicine on the east side of the island in Kapaa.
- Koloa Clinic, family practice medicine in Koloa town.
- Eleele Clinic, family practice medicine in the westside community of Eleele.
Service, Innovation, and Commitment
Because we provide access to specialty care, our small island community can receive the care they need without leaving Kauai. We are proud of the many highly skilled and board certified physicians in our practice. We have a full team of orthopedic surgeons, a foot specialist, and physiatrist. Our affiliation with Straub and Kapi’olani adds greater access to more specialists, such as endocrinologist, urogynecologist, and others.
Through our affiliation with Hawai‘i Pacific Health, centers of excellence in women's health at Kapiolani Health, as well as cardiac care at Straub's Heart Center, are now within our reach. We are proud to help develop these centers while offering our patients the best care possible. We are also happy to offer family practice medicine at the majority of our satellite clinics, making care for the entire family available in each community.
Kauai Medical Clinic physicians form a large, highly skilled and reputable medical staff committed to our vision of a healthy community. The direction and support for the clinic, hospital and foundation are provided by community-based boards of directors.
