We loved Puna and would be happy to live there, but the state of health care on the island is the main reason we are unwilling to do so. Limited cardiac care is only one of the problems; at least as of March there wasn't a single neurologist practicing anywhere on the Big Island.
If you have no pre-existing conditions, and no known factors making you predisposed to develop any in the near future, you may feel that the obvious joys of living in Puna are worth the risk of dealing with an unexpected emergency some time in the future. If you already have significant health problems, it is a lot safer to live somewhere else.
