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.
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 every other month at 11:30am. Contact 808-339-1744 or email Ostomygroup@yahoo.com for location info.
