Urgent care/ear infections

[Raya]

Hi! We're less than a week from flying out and I swear there's an ear infection brewing along with maybe a sore throat/chest cold in another person. Does anyone have experiences with urgent care or a walk-in clinic near the resort? I hope I'm being paranoid and no one needs it but just in case...

No actual experience for us, but if it does happen when you are there I'm sure the front desk will have a list of nearby facilities.

Sorry deleted I just realized this was for Aulani .

I have actually been to an urgent care near Aulani, but we did have a car.

If someone does have an ear infection, the resort will be the least of their problems; the flight will cause them unbearable agony.

I’d suggest seeing a doctor sooner than later.

Yep go now, get meds, be ahead of it all

Not sure why you'd assume that we didn't see the doctor. We did, before I posted. We were told to "watch and wait" but that antibiotics aren't given as a first step. That's why I was hoping to find someone to help us on the trip if needed. In case anyone is curious: https://www.cdc.gov/antibiotic-use/media/pdfs/WatchfulWaitingEar-P.pdf

Your in luck it says 2-3 days which will be before your trip so you would have antibiotics before the trip. However if still needed the front desk will be able to assist with urgent care and will have far better suggestions being they are local.

Check with your insurance company. They might have an extended or guest network available.

You might be able to reduce your out of pocket costs

There is an Urgent Care ten minutes away from the resort. About $20 by Uber. It’s next to a Walmart where you can get your prescriptions filled.
