Re: Scarcity of specialists creating local crisis
Primary care doctors are available on Kauai and I would assume Maui, Molokai and the Big Island. I am pretty much sure that the hospitals there have the typical things like X-ray, operating rooms to handle routine things like a factured limb, appendetices, colonsopy, and C-sections, I think some places can handle chemo treatment.
Even on Oahu certain hopsitals do certain things better than other places on the island. You get burned really badly you go to Straub, problem with the child birthing one gets routed to Kapiolani, transplants seem to be at St. Fransicis.
