Veterinarians in Kaneohe, HI

Have you tried Dr. Haas in Lihue?

Have you tried Dr. Lam? I don't know if he does, but he is a home-visit vet, very fairly priced, and a very kind man. Since he doesn't operate out of a clinic he may be more flexible.

VCA might still have the Free Wellness exam offer on their website. I'd all try mobile vets. Dr Jill or Dr Scott

Luismari Lopez, please check these resources: 1. http://m.humanesociety.org/animals/resources/tips/trouble_affording_veterinary_care.html 2. https://redrover.org/find-financial-assistance-veterinary-care 3. https://www.gofundme.com/animals-pets/ Please keep us posted and let us know how your dog is doing, and where (and when) you set up an appointment.

North Shore Vet Clinic...637-6202.

see info. on Dr. Crabtree. She has special interest in small animal dermatology. :) http://www.wahiawapethospital.com/about . I haven't been there myself, but just remembered it from before when I was checking for vets for my parent's dog skin allergies...

There is also a dermatologist/allergy specialist who comes to the island once a quarter or so--you can contact Kilani Pet Clinic in Wahiawa to request an appointment, but they do go to several different vet offices while they are here, so you can ask your vet if they come to an office closer to you. Most feline skin issues are allergy-based if they aren't fungal or mange/mites. Since your vet should have easily been able to address fungal or mange/mites issues, and you havent described the symptoms, for simplicity sake I'll describe typical treatment for allergies. Most feline allergies are food based, and the dermatologist will generally want you to rule that out before doing any skin tests. You start by switching your kitty to a grain-free novel protien if your vet hasn't already had you do so. A novel protien is a type of protien your cat has not previously been exposed to. I have a cat and a dog who are both HIGHLY allergic to chicken. So if you are not on a prescription diet (those are expensive!), you can look at the limited ingredient diets like Dick VanPatten's. I would recommend against a fish-based diet because that is actually the most common feline allergy. Look for rabbit, duck, lamb, or quail. Turkey may work for a while, but my cat who is allergic to chicken has started reacting to that as well. ALWAYS read the ingredients--sometimes they use "poultry fat" which could be from chicken, turkey, or duck. If it is an allergy, you should see results within 6 weeks on the new diet. In the meantime, your vet may prescribe antibiotics if she has open sores or steroids if she is horribly itchy. Steroids are REALLY hard on cat kidneys, so keep her off of them unless she is just constantly scratching herself bloody. For either steroids or antibiotics, it is absolutely critical to follow the dosing instructions, even after your cat is feeling better. Good luck, and please keep us posted! We all learn from each other's experiences.

I'm currently feeding my allergy kitty a prescription rabbit and green pea from royal canin. It's expensive ($65 for an 8lb bag!) But the advantage of a precription food vs. The limited ingredient diets is that they are required by law to wash down their equipment between batches of different types of food, so you know that the contents of the bag/can are exactly what they say they are. There are no such requirements for processing of other types of food, even the limited ingredient diets. I fed Wellness Core grain-free Turkey and Duck to my allergy cat for a couple of years and she did fine on it, but she stared reacting to it, so either there was some cross contamination with chicken or she's become allergic to turkey (the allergist said the protien structure is very similar and was actually surprised that she had done so well on it for so long). She seems to be okay with duck, so far, but she likes the rabbit better. If your vet suggests a hydrolyzed protien prescription, just ask for the rabbit and green pea instead--hydrolyzed protien is essentially chicken that has been cooked and processed to the point where the protien structure is changed (hydrogen has bonded to it) so it no longer binds to the allergy receptors. We know hydrolyzed fat is bad for us; I can't see how a hydrolyzed protien diet can be good for a cat in the long term.

https://healthypets.mercola.com/sites/healthypets/archive/2016/08/07/pet-allergies-natural-treatment.aspx Story at-a-glance A dog or cat with seasonal allergies often expresses those allergies through the skin. Left untreated, seasonal allergies often progress to year-round allergies Allergic pets are typically very itchy, and the itch-scratch cycle results in irritated, inflamed skin that invites secondary bacterial infections There are a number of simple, all-natural steps guardians of an allergic dog or cat can take to relieve their pet’s discomfort The first step is to address the animal’s diet and the possibility of leaky gut syndrome Other steps include avoiding all unnecessary vaccines and veterinary drugs, provide irrigation therapy, and offer natural antihistamine support

If you live in Honolulu, both Blue Cross Animal Hospital and Kalihi Pet Clinic are walk-in clinics that are affordable. https://bcah1318.weebly.com/ https://www.facebook.com/Kalihi-Pet-Clinic-110123609051759/

I have also heard that this new vet clinic in Salt Lake area is affordable - https://petvethawaii.com/

Dr. Jill, a mobile vet in Mililani is also affordable if you go to her. Her cell number is ‭(808) 551-7289‬.

I recommend Kalihi Pet Clinic

He's at Feather & Fur- which is accepting donations for his care through the Joey's Feline Friends account. 254-1548

I couldn't give much today, but I did $15 to Rich's care with code 254-1548 since he needs it and my paypal account had that amount deposited from an ebay sale. I think sales from craigslist, ebay, etsy type of stuff can help us be able to contribute more to these causes. Just go to www.joeysfelinefriends.com and there is a paypal button.

Chythia check with Humane Society for this month. I heard they may behaving the $10 sterilization. Also, Cat Friends will be having a clinic on the 25 th of this month. And Dr. Fujioka does not do surgeries if she can help it. Hope this helps. Oh yes, sometimes Poi Dogs and Popoki has clinics too, but noit sure when this month.

The Animal Care FOundation doe ferel cat mondays for $5.50. you have to call and make an appt as they only take a certain amount of cats. They are amazing over there. I took both my pets to be fixed. They want to take care of animals not just make a dollar. The humane society isnt doing the certificates as of right now. the animal care foundation is located in Hawaii Kai.

Yes, I forgot about them. But HHS is not certificates--it's the $10 month. A new program--they try to do once in a while. So depending on where you live, there are choices--Animal Care in Hawaii Kai, HHS in Moiliili, CatFriends on School Street in Liliha. ACF is basically doing spays and neuters free if they are only charging $5.50--that's the cost of the microchip!

We love Cynthia Deakos at Feather & Fur. She knows cats.

Janice, Audrey is fat everywhere except her face. Her head is normal-sized. I'm thinking she has some sort of endocrine issue. She's up to 14.5 lbs. Need to find a vet I like and trust, who won't talk down to me...anybody have any recommendations?

Next spay/neuter clinic is to be held on Sat, Aug. 25, 2012: http://hicatfriends.org/

@Skyla yes ! Thk God for places like CatFriends Hi.

Dr. Jill out of Mililani I believe does!

Yes, Dr. Jill will make house calls. Her number is 808-623-5466

Dr Osgood mobile vet

If you could not get her into a carrier, I would try using a humane trap. Then bringing her in the trap to a vet that is comfortable working with ferals (for example, Kalihi Pet Clinic). If necessary, they can sedate her.

Fungal infection possibly. Will most likely have to extract the claw fully to clean out under the skin. My Lilo had issues with hers and had to clean /wipe down with chlorhexidine solution. I bought the chlorhexidine wipes on Amazon https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00483PX7K/ref=mp_s_a_1_9?ie=UTF8&qid=1518234713&sr=8-9&keywords=chlorhexidine+wipes

I love Dr. Morikami at the new Waipahu Waikele Pet Hospital. There's several Vets there and they are open 24 hrs "7" days a week. I take can take my pets on Saturday afternoons, Sundays & evenings if needed. My pets have seen several of the Vets, depending when the need arises and Dr. Tar is also fantastic & Dr. Nagasako too! It's great to know in case of an emergency, my pets will be in great hands at Waipahu Waikele Pet Hospital. The place is new, very nice & clean with lots of parking. Please check them out ^.".^

I agree with Iwai Donna. They are formerly known as Leeward Pet Hospital & was located on Farrington Hwy. They are very nice. Dr. Wong also is very good with a big heart. I'd go back there in a heart beat if I could afford them, but right now I can't so I've been researching & came across & considering Ke Ola Pet Hospital. Blessings on your choice.

Mililani Mauka Veterinary Clinic is very good from what I've heard.

Dr Osgood at Island Mobile Vet, Inc. is really great, he'll go to you. And if you want to make their move to the island very easy and stressfree for you - we'l be happy to help ~ Island Pet Movers

My hanai family uses Mililani Town Center Pet Clinic, and they've been great each time I've gone there with their dogs

I'm not sure this is the same vet@Mililani Town Center, but here's the 5-Star reviews I found on Yelp: http://www.yelp.com/biz/ke-ola-pet-hospital-mililani

Kalihi Pet Clinic on Beretania Street. Walk-in clinic but try to avoid Saturday because it is crazy.

I used to go to Blue Cross but prefer Kalihi Pet Clinic....they are near each other.

I use Animal Care Foundation (mobile vet) or Blue Cross Animal Hospital on Kapiolani Blvd its a first come first serve basis. I recommend going Tuesday -Thursday least busy days.

Chantelle Alexa Hobb, I haven't personally used them yet, but have considered it for my older cats (used to be my Mom's) as they are terrified of going to the vet worse than any cat I have ever had. So for their next shots, I will bring the vet to them. Otherwise, I use Kailua Animal Clinic which is on the opposite side of the Island from you>:-)

If you're brave, drsfostersmith.com sells pet vaccines. If you need it documented, though, you'll probably want to see a vet.

Dr Walter Lam has excellent vaccine prices. He is a mobile vet and for vaccines you can't beat his prices.

Dr Osgood at@Island Mobile Vet is awesome. He's really great with cats especially!

Try Dr Eric Pearson.... a mobile vet and GREAT one at that!

If it's not some thing critical (that the pet has to go under anesthesia), I usually bring my cats to Blue Cross Animal hospital. I go here for shots, prescriptions, regular exams, blood tests / fecal screenings, minor injuries, etc. Office visit costs only $35. Don't leave your pets here over night or on an operation tables with them as I have seen how un-sanitary their place is in the back.

Animal House in Ewa.

I take one of my cats to Animal House too but you can take your pet to Petco/Oahu SPCA for the vaccine, it is cheaper.

Kapolei Pet Hospital.

https://www.facebook.com/671329619544298 Kapolei Pet Hospital! Dr. Yoko spayed and neutered all the Joey's cats before she opened her place. Prices are unbeatable.

The Big Fix has a wellness clinic now, they do shots for 20.

Cheryl Nacis!

Raina my vet is Dr. Trevor Rodriquez at Aloha Veterinary Center. He's the best took care of my kitties for 30 years. Dr. Lei Imaino at Aloha Vet is also great.:)

935-7387 in Hilo behind Orchid Isle Ford on Holomua St.

Blue Cross Animal Hospital used to be inexpensive, but haven't gone in years.

I took mine to the Petco Clinic on Sunday, they have one every weekend at the different Petco's and it is $25 for shots. They give them a basic check up too, took their temp, heart rate, weight and did a general check of teeth, ears, body. http://oahuspca.com/petco-vaccination-clinics/

Kalihi Pet Clinic is low cost and affordable.

I always see Dr. Jill at her house but I know she will do house calls as well. I think the only other two mobile vets are Dr. Lam and Dr. Osgood. I've heard wonderful things about Dr. Osgood.

http://islandmobilevet.com/dr-scott-osgood/ Used him several times. Very good with the cats and pups.

Hi Shannon, I know that our group will have lots of suggestions for you - in fact, we just had this discussion a couple of days ago. Would you like to join and post on the group page (it's for adoptive families and volunteers, and some supporters)? It's https://www.facebook.com/groups/joeysfelinefriends/. That way our group members will see the post and be able to chime in.

Oh yes, forgot to tell you that you cold always call Dr. Jill for Health Certificates and rabies shots. If they need to be updated on vaccines we can do that. Call me for Dr. Jill's number when /if you want. She's in Mililani.

Poor baby. I liked http://www.waipahuwaikelepethospital.com/

Dr. Yoko Haneda is in Kapolei, close to Ewa Beach. She is excellent. If she feels it's super urgent, there is a veterinary emergency and referral clinic in town, but they're expensive. They're also excellent.

Thank you all! I've had a bad experience with a vet in Waipahu. I started taking my other kitty Khan to the Animal House in Ewa Beach. They were okay. I have not taken T.K. there yet, since all of his vet trips so far have been to the expensive after hours/emergency places. I will continue to monitor T.K.'s condition throughout the evening. It definitely seems like he's feeling much better than he was yesterday. If he gets worse or the vomiting continues -- Waikele Pet Hospital (tonight) or Kapolei Pet Hospital (tomorrow) it is! Thank you again, for all your help!

A good friend of mine is an anesthesiologist at the VERC in town. I've met many of the staff and they are amazing. They have a lot to say about the other 24/7 vets. Not very good either. Oy saw Dr. Yoko and so far I'm very impressed. Everything passed to us is making a difference.

Dr. Yoko sounds like a great vet! My vet here in Hilo, Dr. Rodriguez calls all his patients "sweetie" and "baby" and gives them kisses too! Good vets make such a big difference for sick kitties! Thank you everyone for your help! Hopefully my grandkitty T.K. is doing much better today.:)

The most reasonable I've found has been Blue Cross on corner of Pi'ikoi & Spencer St Honolulu. Unfortunately I know of no Vets office in Ewa. However, Mom ur on the Big Island what about "Aloha Vet" doctor Scott or getting some "Home Remedies" from Internet?

Dr. Yoko is not 24/7, though. Most of the 24/7 clinics I would hesitate to recommend, after bad experiences. But VERC in town is 24/7, and they're really good.

So glad that he's feeling better. Certainly is a gorgeous cat. By the way, I'm going to chime in about Dr. Yoko at Kapolei Pet Hospital - she's amazing. If I had to regularly visit a vet on that side of the island, she would be the one I'd choose, hands down.

Thank you Skyla. She said that Dr. Yoko has good reviews on Yelp. He is such a cutie! I just love his face! Hopefully he stops throwing up today.

I must have just gotten a bad vet at Waipahu-Waikele...totally blew off what was going on with Harley, and she almost died. Dr. Yoko & VERC saved her life. I'm glad it's been a good experience for you, Shellie !

We've enjoyed Waipahu Waikele Pet Hospital. When our cat was having urinary issues, they were very thorough and didn't charge us for unnecessary things like VCA did. VCA wanted to pull our cat's teeth when he actually only had a little respiratory infection.

I have been with Dr. Eileen Lau at Animal House Veterinary Center, in Ewa Beach for almost five years. The staff is super friendly and always very helpful. I was a little neurotic with my cat Peaches who had a lot of health problem her first year, but they were always very accommodating. Sorry about your vet:(...

I use Dr. Yoko

Waipahu/Waikele was great for us in the past and we still go there for emergencies. They have a sister clinic in Wahiawa called Wahiawa Animal Hospital. We love Dr Crabtree who is on maternity leave. Dr Green is a great substitute. They give a 10% multi-pet discount, which we appreciate with our 5 pets! I hope it works out well for you!

I like Dr. Fujioka of Kilani Pet clinic--she can be brusque with people, but knows her stuff and takes a holistic approach. You need to write down all of your concerns and share them with the vet tech before seeing her--don't expect to bring things up in conversation. Only problem is they have limited hours and it can be hard to get in.

Ok, Arthur has an urgent care appointment at Waipahu-Waikele tomorrow. Arthur and Annabelle both have appointments at Mililani Mauka on Thursday. But if Arthur is FeLV positive at his appointment tomorrow, sadly he will be going to kitty Heaven.

She definitely needs a vet. That discharge is indicative of an infection. She'll likely need antibiotic ointment, at the very least, and possibly oral antibiotics. What part of the island do you live? Feather & Fur in Kailua is fantastic, and a 24/7 emergency vet with long appointment hours, so they can likely get you in quickly; Kapolei Pet Hospital is great if you're out that direction. I'm sure others can jump in with additional suggestions for other parts of the island. Those are the two best ones I've used, by far.

I second Kapolei Pet Hospital. Dr. Yoko is great!

Dr. Yoko is awesome

Dr Yoko it is! I have an appointment tomorrow at 1000! Ashley Spencer we have some vet medicine for pink eye from our other pet that had an infection when we rescued her. We assumed it was the same for Violet, but it's not helping:-(

Dr. Yoko will get her what she needs. She's really wonderful. My regular vet, whom I adore, is at Feather & Fur, but I went to Dr. Yoko for stem cell treatment for one of my kitties, and she was really lovely to work with. Let us know how it goes.

We use Haiku Vet and are very pleased.

Feather & Fur is wonderful! I was actually just there this morning. They are not inexpensive, but they're excellent. You might want to stick with some of the more experienced vets there, like Dr. Walsh or Dr. Hancock. I heard of a recent experience where one of the newer vets was suggesting more tests and vaccines than what I've come to expect as necessary. One of the other great things about them are their hours - they're a 24/7 emergency vet, have appts until 8:30, walk-ins until midnight, and their emergency fee of $75 only kicks in after midnight.

Dr. Haddock at Kailua Animal Clinic is excellent and very fair

I currently have an 18 yr old cat who had a wound on her leg that wouldn't heal. The vet did do blood work because she was so skinny, but I think if she had just had the wound then the vet likely would have just suggested antibiotics. I really like the Convenia shot for skin wounds. Hopefully it isn't cancer. My vet is Dr. Kinoshita at VCA Waipahu. I really like her because she can think outside of the box. Tell her what your goal is for the visit. With the antibiotic shot and the exam you are looking at like $130.
