I was never a "cat person." I've always had dogs and actually took quite a bit of pride in being a…read moredog person. But when we adopted our little Autumn girl, she completely melted my heart and turned me into a die-hard cat lover almost instantly. Our family loves Autumn so much. She is an absolute angel -- truly the sweetest cat I've ever met. So you can imagine how terrified we were this past weekend. During a dinner party, she slipped out through our lanai door without anyone noticing. Around 8 PM we heard the loudest cat fight we've ever heard (and we hear a lot, since there are many stray cats on our property). We realized she was missing and ran outside searching, but couldn't find her. Later that night she came home -- but she could barely walk. One of her legs was twitching, she was wincing in pain, and we couldn't even gently touch her back without her crying out. I immediately feared the worst -- that she had fallen from a tree and broken her back. My son stayed up with her all night, but she didn't improve. The next morning, we drove from the North Shore to VCA Family & Oahu Veterinary Specialty Center after being referred by our regular vet (who was closed since it was Sunday). The receptionist was efficient and straightforward, took my information, and told us we could come right in. When we arrived, we were greeted kindly, given paperwork, and within minutes Autumn was taken back for evaluation. After about 30 minutes, we were brought into the exam room to discuss next steps. I'll be honest -- in my emotional, protective state, my first thought when I saw the veterinarian was that she looked young, and I unfairly questioned whether she had enough experience. I feel a bit silly admitting that now, because Dr. Steph Craven was absolutely incredible. She was confident, knowledgeable, calm, and deeply compassionate. She knew exactly what to do and handled both Autumn and my very anxious mama-heart with so much patience and care. I had prepared myself for the worst. I truly thought we might have to say goodbye. Thankfully, after diagnostics, rest, antibiotics, and pain medication, Autumn is going to be okay. Dr. Steph Craven and the entire staff were professional, communicative, and calm under pressure. In one of the most stressful moments for our family, they gave us clarity and hope. I sincerely hope we never face another animal emergency -- but if we do, they are absolutely on speed dial. Thank you so much for taking care of our girl. Aloha, Lynsey (and Autumn)

As a first-time guinea pig mom, I did a lot of research before bringing my two girls home. I…read moresearched high and low for the best pellets, hay, and vegetables, and I put just as much effort into finding the right veterinarian. Since options for exotic animal vets are limited, I wanted to be sure I chose the best. I'm so glad I decided on VCA Pearl City. My guinea pigs have been patients there since they were 6 months old, and they're now almost three. They go in for their annual checkups, and whenever I have a concern, I can send a photo to the vet or schedule a quick consult. That level of accessibility gives me so much peace of mind. They typically see Dr. Luis Ho for their routine visits, and he has always been really thorough. Recently, one of my guinea pigs developed a lump near her mammary gland that grew overnight to about the size of a quarter. We were so scared. After antibiotics didn't work, Dr. Ho promptly referred us to Dr. Nathaniel Lam for a surgical consultation. Both doctors were incredibly knowledgeable and reassuring, which helped ease our anxiety during such a stressful time. The surgery was successful, and my guinea pig is alive and healthy because of their care. I'm truly grateful to the team at VCA Pearl City for taking such wonderful care of my girls. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for experienced and compassionate care for their exotic pets.

But they…read moredeserve a huge shout-out for the exceptional care they've given our senior doggie daughter (14+ years old). We were referred to Dr. Gulliver by a friend when we were searching for someone to evaluate a large lump on her front leg. By that point, I had lost confidence in our previous veterinary clinic. There were constantly different young veterinarians, and we could never see the same doctor consistently. I realized how much I value continuity of care, especially for a senior pet. From our very first visit, I knew in my gut that Dr. Gulliver was the real deal. He's incredibly experienced, knowledgeable, compassionate and an outstanding surgeon. He tested & diagnosed the large lump as cancerous and successfully removed it the following week. Knowing he regularly performs surgeries gave us great confidence that she was in skilled hands. She is cancer free today. Since then, Dr. Gulliver has been our dog's veterinarian. He's cared for her through UTIs and has been thorough about running tests to evaluate her kidneys and liver whenever something didn't seem right. A special thank you also goes to Jamie, the office manager. She keeps the office running smoothly, is incredibly knowledgeable and genuinely cares about every patient and their family. The rest of the staff are equally kind, friendly and compassionate. If you're looking for an experienced veterinarian who combines expertise with genuine heart, I highly recommend Dr. Gulliver and the entire team at Leeward Pet Clinic. We feel incredibly fortunate to have found them.

He explains everything thoroughly and is caring rather than pushy. My cat and I were stressed when we arrived but Dr. Gulliver and his staff put all of us at ease. My cat is finally getting his extra pounds addressed, and I've been educated on how to do it. Mahalo!
