“Establishing a medical practice takes time. And patience. Whether you’re talking about equipment, salaries, or rent, the up-front costs can be staggering. So in 2009, when I started practicing family medicine in Hilo, a Ma-lama Loan provided the working capital. And First Hawaiian Bank was there to help, every step of the way.”

—Dr. J. Nohea Kaawaloa, MD family practice, hilo
