Wahiawa General Hospital

Wahiawa General Hospital (WGH) is a community-owned, nonprofit hospital located in Wahiawa, Hawaii, on the island of Oahu. The story of WGH plays a big part in the history of the Central Oahu Community it serves. Health care dates back to when the ancient Ali'i (royalty) traveled to the Stones of Kukaniloko to give birth. Later, midwives and plantation doctors were the ones who provided the community with most of its medical care. But ironically, it took an act of war, not healing, to finally bring a modern healthcare facility to the area.
