Recognizing the need to provide much-needed obstetrics and gynecology services on Maui, Queen’s University Medical Group (QUMG), with the help of its community partners, has established a clinic located in Kahului to help address a shortage of services.
“In Spring 2023, we began to hear about the shortage of obstetricians on Maui”, said Dr. Bliss Kaneshiro, Chief of Obstetrics and Gynecology for Queen’s University Medical Group. “In addition, we knew many of the OBGYNs at Malama I Ke Ola Health Center on Maui were already working tirelessly to meet the increased demand for services. So we began meeting with Malama I Ke Ola and HMSA to develop a new practice on Maui.”
The clinic provides comprehensive obstetric and gynecologic care in a safe and supportive environment for patients and their families.
The clinic is staffed by the following four experienced obstetricians:
*Dr. Bliss Kaneshiro
*Dr. Robb Ohtani
*Dr. Shandhini Raidoo
*Dr. Reni Soon
“We realize the importance of having safe, high quality, and easily accessible obstetrics and gynecology services for women, and we look forward to serving the people of Maui with humility,” said Dr. Rick Bruno, President of Queen’s University Medical Group and President of The Queen’s Medical Center. “Our long-term goal is to identify and train future physicians from Maui who will one day serve the community they live in. We are also grateful to HMSA and Malama I Ke Ola for supporting this initiative to prioritize maternal health.”
QUMG is a prestigious group of more than 700 providers representing 17 specialties and subspecialties of care within The Queen’s Health System.
The providers will be seeing patients at the following location:
