Overview
"ALOHA" is more than a word or a greeting, it is a deep feeling of love and empathy; it is the emotion we feel for family and friends; it is the way we treat pets as members of our families. Aloha Veterinary Center was conceived with the notion of bringing permanent veterinary care to the Big Island of Hawaii
Aloha Veterinary Center was conceived with the notion of bringing permanent veterinary care to the Big Island of Hawaii. Prior to its inception, all complicated medical and surgical cases were referred to Honolulu. It was the idea of Dr. Trevor Rodrigues, the founder, that such services be available to the local community at reasonable prices and exceptional value. Since its inception, Aloha Veterinary Center has added Doctors and staff members that share the same "Compassionate Pet Care" vision always treating the animals that walk through our doors as members of our own family. Here at Aloha Veterinary Center we take pride in our work and strive to offer our clients and their families the most professional, affordable services possible
