Meet the practice

Led by Dr. Carpenter,
with specialists on hand.

Care here is led by Dr. Rick A. Carpenter, D.O., an ophthalmologist with over 30 years of experience in Hilo, working alongside a skilled team.

For specialized procedures, the practice brings in a visiting physician and a surgeon who travels to Hilo for eye surgery, so patients can get advanced care without leaving the island.
