Who are the physicians?
Asked by Sharon from Honolulu on Sep 27, 2002.
I was wondering whether the doctor is also the dentist, considering the chair that was shown on the video.

Yes, the physician's assistant handles all medical conditions, but anything serious requires a medivac to Honolulu.

Asked by Sharon from Honolulu on Sep 27, 2002.

How can I live on Midway Island?
Asked by Nick on Jun 29, 2003.
would like to move to and live on Midway Island in the next couple of years, is that possible and if so, how? Thanks
Answered by Andy from NOAA on Jun 30, 2003.
Midway is managed as a National Wildlife Refuge and a National Historic Site by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The only people who actually live on the atoll's main island, Sand Island, are personnel involved in managing the refuge and historic site, or performing maintenance functions for the facilities. It is not possible to move to Midway unless you are employed in one of the above capacities. I hope this helps.
