Kaiser Permanente will continue to operate its ambulatory surgery center and provide gastroenterology services at its Wailuku clinic, backing away from a plan to close the center and move services to Maui Memorial Medical Center.
“After additional analysis Kaiser Permanente has found a way to allow the surgery center to remain open with all current services,” Kaiser Permanente said in a statement Thursday. “This new path will require minor changes to allow for better patient flow and safety enhancements.”
