Hometown Care at VCA Family and Oahu Veterinary Specialty Center

At VCA Family Animal Hospital, your pet's health is our top priority, and excellent service is our goal.

We look forward to welcoming you and your pets. Our veterinarians, veterinary technicians and other pet-friendly personnel are trained to the highest standards. Their knowledge of the latest veterinary medicines and procedures ensures that your pet will receive the best care and preventative medicine.

Preventative Health Care in Hawai'i

There are numerous local medical issues in Hawai'i that can impact your pet's health, and that require your attention over the entire year.

For example, heartworm disease can affect both cats and dogs. Since it is transmitted by mosquitoes, which thrive in our region, it's a serious cause for concern. Since the winter temperatures do not get cold enough here to kill mosquito eggs, it is a year-round risk.

Likewise for the potential of flea and tick infestation, or intestinal parasites, each of which poses a problem in any season. And, contrary to what you'd expect, allergies are a year-round issue. Many pets suffer from skin and ear allergies, the signs of which include scratching, redness in the ears, and "scaly" skin.

Schedule a physical exam, or take advantage of our annual vaccination packages and semi-annual wellness check-ups!

American Animal Hospital Association

The American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA) sets the standard for quality veterinary care for companion animals. As an accredited hospital, we voluntarily uphold the Association's high standards in 18 different areas and are routinely evaluated on over 900 different standards of veterinary care. Not all animal hospitals are accredited, and we are proud to be amongst only 12-15% of veterinary hospitals that hold this honor.

American Association of Feline Practitioners

The American Association of Feline Practitioners (AAFP) represents practitioners in the veterinary community who are passionate about the care of cats and supports its members in improving the health and welfare of feline patients. With a reputation as a leader in the field of feline medicine, the AAFP helps veterinary practices establish a feline-friendly environment that reduces stress for cats during veterinary visits.
