(Note 1) St. Luke’s Clinic – Waikiki is a general clinic run by Japanese people which is used by many Japanese people resident in Hawaii or on a long-term stay in Hawaii. All of the staff provide the clinic’s services in both Japanese and English, and provide medical examinations and treatments tailored to the needs of the patients. Their services are covered by a full range of overseas travel insurance, so the clinic is also a reassuring presence in the unlikely event of injury or illness during travel. The clinic is located on the top floor of the Ala Moana Building next to the Ala Moana Center, and in addition it opened a PCR Testing Center on the second floor of the Waikiki Shopping Plaza in central Waikiki on May 2021.
