Mahalo for visiting. We hope you will enjoy your visit and learn a bit about us.
Hamakua Health Center has been a part of the Hamakua community in one form or another since the early plantation days. Before 1966, every plantation along the Hamakua Coast had its own dispensary-one each in Haina, Pa'auhau, Pa'auilo, O'okala, and Laupahoehoe, serving both outpatients and hospital in-patients. In 1966, all the dispensaries were consolidated to form the Hamakua Infirmary here in Honoka'a. For 27 years the Infirmary continued to provide care for plantation families, and to many other families of the Hamakua Coast communities.
In 1993, when Hamakua Sugar announced its final closure, the Hamakua Infirmary once again adapted and changed its form. Thanks to the inspired vision and dedication of then-administrator, Gail Walker, the Board of Directors, our legislators and community, Hamakua Infirmary was given new life as Hamakua Health Center.
This year, we have expanded our coverage of the Hamakua Coast to include North Kohala, with the latest addition to our health care system, Kohala Family Health Center. At KFHC you'll find our friendly staff and providers serving the North Kohala Community with quality, affordable health care services, just as our Honokaa facility has been doing since 1993.
