Big Island Ostomy Group

Big Island Ostomy Group was established for ostomates to meet new friends and to share experiences and provide mutual support in an environment that’s friendly and safe. Membership is open to all ostomates, pre-ostomy patients, caregivers, interested medical professionals and the general public.

Rainbow Falls, located near Hilo Medical Center

We are fellow ostomates that offer hospital visits and phone support to new ostomates before and after surgery and during their rehabilitation period. We are there for you.

Meetings are held on the 3rd Saturday of each month at 11:00am in the cafeteria at the Hilo Medical Center located at 1190 Waianuenue Ave, Hilo, HI 96720 (map). The cafeteria is located in the lower level of the hospital.
