East Hawaii's Occupational Medicine & Pain Specialist

Hilo is the gateway to East Hawaii, serving a workforce that spans agriculture, healthcare, education, harbor operations, federal research, and the tourism industry along the Hamakua Coast and in Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. The physical demands of these industries produce a steady volume of workplace injuries, from chronic back pain in agricultural workers to repetitive strain in healthcare staff to construction injuries across the Hilo corridor.

Vally Medical Group's Hilo clinic at 82 Puuhonu Place provides specialized occupational medicine and opioid-free pain management for East Hawaii workers. The clinic serves patients from Hilo proper, Puna, Hamakua, Waimea, Volcano, and surrounding communities, eliminating the need to travel to the West Side or off-island for specialist care.
