Kauai's Occupational Medicine & Pain Specialist

For years, Kauai workers who needed specialized pain management or occupational medicine had two options: see a generalist who may not have experience with workers' compensation cases, or fly to Oahu for specialist care. That flight costs a full day of recovery time, aggravates existing injuries, and creates a financial burden for workers already on reduced wages from temporary disability.

Vally Medical Group's Lihue clinic exists to eliminate that barrier. Located at 2978 Haleko Road, five minutes from Lihue Airport and centrally accessible from Kapaa, Poipu, Princeville, and all communities across the island, the clinic provides the same level of interventional pain management and occupational medicine care that was previously only available on Oahu.

Internal & Occupational Medicine
Hawaii's Workers' Comp & Pain Specialist

Dr. Vally personally manages every patient's case from initial evaluation through full recovery. There are no rotating providers and no handoffs to physician assistants mid-treatment. The same doctor who evaluates your injury is the same doctor who writes your work restrictions, manages your treatment plan, and coordinates with your insurance carrier.

This continuity matters clinically. A physician who examines you at every visit notices subtle changes in your condition that a provider reading your chart for the first time will miss.
