By far the best care ever! The level and care and communication was beyond what I ever expected. Dr. Abella and the staff at Aloha Animal Hospital were amazing. I received step by step updates including photos of my dogs procedure. I brought him home that afternoon and the recovery has been incredible. Pete feels like a puppy again! Thank you Dr. Abella and Aloha Animal Hospital!

Seriously the best Vets ever! From the front desk staff, the technicians and Vets. They do everything they can to help your pet but are also very conscious of your pocket. Today, they saved me about $250 when I wouldn't have known the difference if they just "got me" for the money. This is now 2 pets I've taken there after moving to the area and being referred by my Sister and a Friend. Grateful to them as well as the Aloha Team! You couldn't pay me to call another Vet! Thank you Aloha!

I am very disappointed. I have rescued a cat that I found in my apartment complex, I could not find her owner and she was not microchipped. I have had the pleasure of her company for about 3 months. She eats regularly and seemed healthy other than being a bit more bony than my other two kitties. On Christmas she started vomiting and lying very still, body completely weak.
Long story short the next morning I took her to the closest vet. Aloha Pet Hospital. They were very kind on the phone and in person when I brought my sick kitty in. Turns out that she has a tumor in her colon and will medicine may live a bit longer, eventually she will need to be euthanized or her last days will be painful. THIS IS WHERE IT GETS BAD.the lovely lady comes out to show me treatment plans.
While going over prices she tells me that it is 75.50 to have her euthanized.but if I accompany her it is 139.50. I cannot believe that they would ask pet owners to pay extra for this. they NEED to be there for emotional support in their pets last moments. Aloha Pet Hospital, how dare you charge us extra for this. You are preying on people's emotions.

I have dealt with three vets at Aloha, and loved all of them. The entire staff is courteous, friendly, and more than competent. I feel very much at home when I'm there, and more importantly, my little dog (Maggie, a yorkie-poo) seems to be very much at home as well. She is always treated well, and everyone there treats us--and all the other visitors--as if we're the most important patients coming through their door.
I have great trust that when Maggie and I leave Aloha, we're both better off than when we arrived. I thank them for their service, and I recommend them without reservation. Enjoy your visit!
