Should not gave this outfit any star.I got a new phone number few months ago. This outfit called every month to informed I had an appointment with their doctor ... blahblah. I had not idea WHO they were nor had any appointment made with tthem. They never answer their phone. Could be SCAM. Be careful.

History of this organization (2 organizations some how put together) is fascinating but I must say, the current structure and content does not come any where close to Asian Pacific Islander Wellness Center. I am an Asian Pacific Islander who lives in the Big Island and practice wellness with veterans and yes, people that are not well.1. Asian - this is a very big word to use in a title of an organization. The Asian wellness expands to hundreds of values and activities, including how we share time, resource and food. They need to study what that really entails. I do not see any Asian wellness practiced there. At one point, Honeybee Acupuncturist and some other people have extended half a day weekly. I have seen some Asian food, some of their staff speak Asian language but just a few of many Asian languages. The Board of Directors should seriously study what Asian wellness really means before they think they can carry this name. In TransThrive, I am lucky if I see one Asian in an entire week. Most of them stop going because there is nothing Asian wellness there.2. Pacific Islander - same as above. I do not see Hawaiian, Samoan, Tongan, Micronesian, Fijian... They certainly do not practice any of what is so called Pacific Islander wellness. At one point there was a Kumu Hula at the front desk of APIWC. That was about all.3. Wellness - Is a combination of neighborhood, family, housing, nutrition, exercise, activities, trust, bond, balance, letting go, forgiveness, clothing, hygiene, spirituality, heritage, openness, future projection, education, community support, harmony with land, sea and living... The words wellness is not often seen in there because the main components to wellness is not practiced. There is a lot of who is the diva, ego vs. ego and not seeking results. HIV+ patients deepest and critical components to recovery can only happen when the trust is built, then bonded. It is not a place to create that.If I was a philanthropists... think twice what you are doing.If you are AsianIf you are Pacific IslanderWhat do we do to maintain wellness.Think well, why I should give to APIWC?
