We love Dr Barrett!…read more We saw her at Honolulu pet clinic and now she has her own practice just a few mins over to where she originally was. At the time we visited her for general things + acupuncture for my dog Nala. She was always calm and gentle with her which is so appreciated because she is a little spicy one (or can be) We even had her for Nala's end of life - she knew I didn't want to give up if I'm able to save her and she allowed us to come back and make my decisions after leaving VERC.

I've been looking for a holistic veterinarian since moving to Honolulu and discovered Dr Barrett…read more I really don't want to rant and rave about how amazing she is because she'll get too busy, and she deserves a raving review. Her focus is squarely on providing a safe and relaxing atmosphere for the animals she treats. My beloved pup Bailey is 10 and I wanted to get a few things checked and have a baseline as she ages. I have so much information, test are being done and I have a several referrals to "regular" vets to support in back up care. I had such a great vet in CA that I was panicking when I moved. My vet there assured me, I could always call her. I am so grateful to have found Dr Barrett and am assured my pup will receive the best of both worlds for her health. Mahalo Dr Barrett

I so wish we'd known about this sooner and don't know why we haven't been hearing about it from vets in either the conventional or holistic side of things. Kris has also been very accommodating to our particular needs and has had great feedback for us for diet and supplements. We feel like she actually cares about our girl.

We brought our dog, Demi, in for her 6-month wellness visit. As usual, every staff member we…read moreinteracted with was professional, kind, and efficient. Dr. Nakamura was excellent and provided ample time to discuss Demi's overall health, especially in light of her advanced age. We do appreciate this veterinarian practice and their aloha and care. This time, they had added a very cute and appealing feature in the lobby (see pic), listing all the animals expected to be seen that day - it was very cool!! We would unconditionally recommend this practice! Thank you!

I brought my new 3-month-old puppy in for her first exam and checkup, and unfortunately, the…read moreexperience started off poorly the moment I walked in. The woman working at the front desk was extremely rude and unwelcoming. Thankfully, another staff member stepped in and said they would still see my puppy, even though I had accidentally forgotten the paperwork from when I got her. Once we were in the exam room, the experience continued to be disappointing. The veterinary assistant would not give my puppy back to me and spent the entire appointment holding and playing with her. She stood between my boyfriend and the vet, making it difficult for him to see the exam or communicate with the doctor. It felt inappropriate and uncomfortable, especially during my puppy's first visit when I was trying to understand her health and care. The biggest concern, however, was the reason I brought her in. Since we got her, she has had a very itchy ear. I brought this up to the vet, but I was told it was just a little dirt and that she was fine. After leaving, I felt uneasy and did not feel confident that my puppy received the thorough care she needed. I decided to take her to Manoa Vet, where they immediately took an ear sample and discovered she had a yeast infection. Thankfully, they caught it before it became worse and we are now treating it. I am extremely disappointed that this concern was dismissed so quickly, especially in a 3-month-old puppy who is fully indoors. A proper test should have been done instead of an assumption being made. Veterinary care requires patience, compassion, and attention to detail. This is Hawai'i, where we value aloha and treat our families--including our furry family members, with love and respect. Unfortunately, I did not feel that care here. Nor did I feel the Aloha! I will not be returning and have found the level of care and compassion I was looking for at Manoa Vet.

. So thankful for Dr…read moreAsato! my 15 yr old lab Joey had treatment with laser, acupuncture, and ozone, and the improvement was dramatic. He was more comfortable, steadier on his feet, and today he got up by himself and started walking around again--something that felt impossible just days ago. As someone with an older dog dealing with disc disease, possible ACL issues, and neurological weakness, it is scary and emotional when they are in pain and lose mobility. The care, attention, and treatment plan made a real difference for Joey. I am beyond grateful for the compassion, skill, and willingness of Dr Asato and her team to look at the whole picture instead of just one symptom. Seeing him improve like this has been such a relief and gives me real hope. Thank you for helping give my dog his comfort, mobility, and spirit back

The visiting feline who had been showing up at my doorstep needed professional help: first time for a wounded paw, second time for dental work.

Our kitty was a six week old feral kitten when we got her and it took a lot of time and attention…read moreto get her comfortable with us. She would be out of sight being under furniture most of the time, because of this we named her "Hidey", a play on the name Heidi. Over the past couple of years she was slowly getting weaker, and I knew since she was 17, she was on the downhill slope of life. When it finally came time in December of this year, I sadly made the arrangements with Kakaako Pet Hospital. I chose to have her cremated with her ashes reutrned to me and the staff at KPH patiently went through what they'd be doing and what exactly to expect with a time frame. My appointment to have her put down was the following morning but my kitty went that night instead. Heartbreaking but that made me feel better that she was able to spend her last moments at home. I took her the next morning (Tuesday) to drop her off at KPH and was able to pick her up on Friday. Her ashes actually was ready the following day but a couple of things KPH does is get a plaster paw print of your pet and a clipping of fur if you choose to so the waiting was for the paw print to fully harden. All of this from the explaining of the total process and arranging with crematorium to doing something special like the paw print and fur clipping really made a big difference for me with comfortably being able to let go. Hidey is now home and she will always live on in my memories. Thank you Kakaako Pet Hospital.
