Aloha Veterinary Center was conceived with the notion of bringing premier 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 our community at reasonable prices and exceptional value.

Our name and mission statement really say it all. "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, and the way we treat our pets as members of our families.

"Veterinary Center" implies commitment and dedication to the latest in medical procedures,equipment and drugs, modern technology and continuing education.

Compassion is another expression of Aloha - it is a one-ness we feel with our clients and pets. At Aloha Veterinary Center, "Compassionate Pet Care" is not just a slogan - it is a way of life.
