Obstetrics and Gynecology Physician Salary in Hawaii (2026)
A Obstetrics and Gynecology physician practicing in Hawaii can expect a base salary inside the national Obstetrics and Gynecology band of $305K to $440K, with the median tracking close to $345K. The Hawaii variation on that number is driven mostly by anchor-employer comp structure in Honolulu, Hilo, Kailua-Kona, Wailuku, Lihue and by shortage-area incentive stacking outside those metros — not by Hawaii cost-of-living alone.

Where Obstetrics and Gynecology offers land highest in Hawaii
Hawaii's recruitment market is small and highly geographically constrained, with The Queen's Health Systems, Hawaii Pacific Health, Kaiser Permanente Hawaii, and HHSC dominating. For Obstetrics and Gynecology, the highest-comp Hawaii opportunities I see are typically not in the urban core of Honolulu — they sit in rural and HPSA-designated counties where the same Obstetrics and Gynecology role carries a 10-25% base premium plus signing bonuses of $30K-$100K and loan repayment of $50K-$200K layered on top of base. That stacking can push an Hawaii Obstetrics and Gynecology offer comfortably above the $440K national ceiling in year-one total cash.
Hawaii incentive programs that boost Obstetrics and Gynecology take-home
The Hawaii State Loan Repayment Program supports primary care, behavioral health, and dental providers serving HPSA-designated sites. The Hawaii Conrad State 30 J-1 waiver program is small but consistently filled. NHSC loan repayment is widely used at FQHCs across neighbor islands. Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander community health centers often layer additional recruitment incentives. For Obstetrics and Gynecology specifically, these federal and state programs frequently add the equivalent of $30K-$60K per year of pre-tax value over the first three years of service.
How I benchmark a Obstetrics and Gynecology offer in Hawaii
When a Obstetrics and Gynecology candidate sends me an Hawaii offer, I check three things in order: (1) where the base lands inside the $305K–$440K band relative to MGMA regional percentiles, (2) the wRVU conversion factor and ramp/threshold structure, and (3) the call burden and stipend. Hawaii's licensing pace also matters for ramp timing: The Hawaii Medical Board licenses through a process that typically issues for US-trained physicians in 60-120 days.
