For anyone who is looking for an integrative medicine practice for their four legged family…read moremembers, I strongly recommend KAI Animal Institute. They were referred to us by our vet at VCA Kaneohe to treat our dog's degenerative disease that impacted her spinal cord, affecting her back legs and ability to walk. She had been going for laser therapy treatment at VCA for pain which was initially working, then her vet recommended Dr. Gregg Levine and KAI Animal Institute as an integrative and complementary mode of treatment for pain management of her spinal cord disease. We're so glad her vet recommended KAI Animal Institute. In our first communication with Dr. Levine, he went over our dog's history over the phone, and went over various modes of treatment he could offer to relieve our dog's pain. We then setup a treatment session at his healing studio for him to assess our dog's health and recommend the most appropriate course of treatment. Stepping into KAI Animal Institute's studio, we were greeted with a calming and healing oasis that was thoughtfully designed for animals where Dr. Levine used various treatments like low level light laser therapy, rehab therapy, targeted pulse electromagnetic field therapy, and acupuncture for our dog's pain. In addition, his wife, Julie, an animal behaviorist, performed harmonic therapy for our dog during the treatment which used sound healing powers to further help calm and treat our dog in addition to the acupuncture, etc. Soothing music was played in the background during the treatment session which helped even my husband and I to relax. During and after each session, we could see a change in our dog's behavior and demeanor. She would smile and be so happy, excited to go to KAI Animal Institute's healing oasis and see Dr. Levine and Julie because she knew they would help her feel better. She was able to stand for brief periods with assistance and continually kept trying to use her back legs on her own. Mahalo Nui Loa Dr. Levine and Julie for providing such kind, compassionate, and caring treatments to our dog to help her with pain management. We are so thankful, grateful and blessed to have met Dr. Levine and Julie and can't recommend them enough for complementary care for animals dealing with pain or recovering from an injury or surgery.

My beagle Keira and I have had many amazing training and therapy sessions with Dr. Gregg Levine at…read morehis Kai Animal Institute. His holistic approach to addressing whatever issue the dog is presenting that day and using the full range of therapies to treat them instead of having to pick from an ala carte menu like other places has been amazing. From acupuncture, to cold laser therapy, and even fun physical games that get the dog to strengthen the right muscles. Even a stroll along the beach was integrated to help heal the mind and body. Being a part of the therapy myself as opposed to just waiting outside a clinic has strengthened the bond and trust between my dog and myself. She has learned new tricks, even at the age of 13, that have enriched her life and our relationship. We started with him to just address a back leg injury Keira had suffered, but have since expanded to help Keira heal and hold off the bits of aging her body has begun to show. I am beyond pleased with the results and use the therapy and training techniques Dr. Levine taught us daily to continue my dog's healing and progress. As you can see in the last photo, Keira is a very happy customer at the end of every session! I can't recommend Kai Animal Institute enough!

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.

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!

As her condition worsened, we tried to secure an emergency appointment at King Street Pet; however, communication via chat was difficult, and the receptionist showed little willingness to help.

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

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.

But Chris is so AMAZING that there's no way I can keep him all to myself because there are so many doggies that need his excellent grooming services. If you have a dog child you most likely know how difficult it is to find a great groomer that you look forward to entrusting with your fur baby! In the past when using other groomers I've had issues with communication, inconsistency, injury and just straight up creepy vibes. Paws Up Boutique is the third groomer I've brought my goldendoodle Jack Jack to and as soon as I picked him up from his grooming appointment I phoned my husband to share my feelings of overwhelming joy and relief! I've taken my doodle to Chris three times so far and each appointment is like clockwork and he's ready for pick-up in about 11/2 to 2 hours. My doodle pulls more poodle with his hair and it's definitely not easy to handle his coat properly, but I am always happy with his cut. Not only is Jack Jack always happy but he looks gorgeous! Pricing is fair and my dood smells like a sweet cotton candy dream! Paws Up Boutique is located in the atrium right behind Roy's Restaurant in Hawaii Kai. Free parking and you can go to Costco while you wait for your grooming to be completed. Hope your pup loves their experience at Paws Up Boutique!
