Distinguished Areas
of Specialty
Many of Castle’s most successful programs are focused on preventive medicine and the promotion of healthy life habits. Castle’s Wellness and Lifestyle Medicine Center, the Performance and Rehabilitation Centers in Kailua and Kāne‘ohe, the employee wellness program, and Castle’s vegetarian cafeteria, The Bistro, all support this mission.
Adding to the many programs offered, Castle Medical Center recently introduced the Surgical Weight Loss Institute—a team approach to weight-loss surgery. In addition to working closely with a surgeon, patients work together with a whole team of dedicated weight-loss professionals.
Patient-Centered Care
Castle Medical Center focuses on providing patient-centered health care in a caring environment that extends well beyond hospital and clinic walls. Our many programs serve the medical needs of all the communities we serve.
A wide range of classes and programs have been developed to meet the community’s health needs: birthing classes, infant care classes, vegetarian cooking classes, nutritional counseling, the HeartBeat Hawai‘i coronary risk evaluation program, lifestyle weight management, smoking cessation program, and aerobics and exercise classes. Free seminars are also provided to the public, sometimes with nationally known speakers, on a variety of topics, such as nutrition, spiritual wellness, and advances in medicine. Also free are our support groups on caregiving, bereavement, cancer, Parkinson’s disease, brain injury, attitudinal healing, and weight loss.
