West Hawaii's Occupational Medicine & Pain Specialist

The Kona clinic is Vally Medical Group's flagship location, serving West Hawaii's workforce from Kealakekua. The Kohala Coast resort corridor, Kailua-Kona's commercial district, Captain Cook's agricultural operations, and the construction industry across the Kona side all produce a steady volume of workplace injuries that require specialized occupational medicine care.

Located on Mamalahoa Highway in Kealakekua, the clinic is accessible from Kailua-Kona, Waikoloa, Kohala Coast resorts, Captain Cook, South Kona, and surrounding communities. The Kona location offers the widest range of treatments in the VMG network, including infrared sauna therapy and cold plunge therapy alongside the full suite of regenerative and interventional pain treatments.
