Staying current on a few key vaccines is an easy way to protect both yourself and the people you love.

What adult immunizations are

Adult immunizations are vaccines recommended throughout adult life to protect against serious infections such as flu, COVID-19, pneumonia, shingles, and RSV.

How we help

With our partner, Ohana Care Clinic, we review your history, see what you are due for, and keep you protected using the current CDC adult schedule.

Insurance and how we see you

We accept Medicare and Medicaid, including Hawaiʻi’s QUEST Integration plans — AlohaCare, the Hawaiʻi Medical Service Association (HMSA), ʻOhana Health Plan, and UnitedHealthcare Community Plan — along with most commercial insurance plans. Your care begins with a visit to our Honolulu office so we can get to know you and complete any needed exams, and after that first in-office visit, much of your ongoing care can continue conveniently by telehealth.

Culturally grounded care

We care for the whole person, in the spirit of lōkahi — balance and harmony among the connected parts of life: the body, the mind and emotions, the spirit, the ʻohana (family), and our relationship with the ʻāina (land) and community. To mālama (care for and protect) your health and to live pono (in balance), we listen to your whole story, welcome your ʻohana, and honor the values and traditions that ground you. Offering kōkua (help given freely, with aloha) in a way that respects who you are is at the heart of how we practice.
