Oprah Winfrey and Gayle King certainly had a New Year's Eve to remember.

The inseparable BFFs rang in 2015 at a decidedly unglamorous location—a local hospital!

King, who turned 60 late last month, was surrounded by her close pal and daughter after a accident left her injured shortly before the clock struck midnight.

"New Year's Eve at Kula Hospital," she said alongside a photo of herself, the two ladies and a doctor inside of a hospital room.

She also shared a collage showing her getting some extra TLC from her son, a nurse, and being wheeled around in a wheelchair by none other than Oprah herself.

"Thank you nurse Cindy nurse Leslie favorite son will and @oprah ..diagnosis very bad sprain ankle that I twisted and fell heading to gym !" Ouch!

King added, "No hike no treadmill anytime soon thanx dr Dave Nelson ! He got jokes!"

But the night ended on a high note for King and her friends and family.

A big group gathered in honor of the New Year at Oprah's Hawaii pad and celebrated with hats, glow sticks and a feast.

King shared pics of herself smiling from ear-to-ear with the partygoers and didn't appear to let her injury dampen her spirit.

"And as 2014 ends and 2015 begins everybody say yaaay! Here's to a good year at your house," she wrote in one extremely happy post. "Happy new year!"

Happy New Year to you, Gayle, and feel better!
