Queen's Pediatrician
Dr. Malia Rasa
As a Pediatrician with the Queen’s Health Care Center – Kahala, my goal is to be a part of a strong support system for my patients and their families, and to be a reliable resource for parents in caring for their child. When I’m not seeing patients, I serve as Board President for The Friends of HOME Project—a student-run, free medical clinic for houseless individuals, an organization with which I have been involved since I was a pre-med student. I try to spend as much of my free time as possible with my husband and son, traveling and playing outside. I also enjoy crafting and baking.
