We traveled three hours from Palm Springs for a special laproscopic spay surgery at Aloha Animal Hospital where the staff was so very welcoming. Dr Abella's utmost professionalism and kindness made us feel very comfortable that our poodle would be in excellent care. The surgery was a succes and the recuperating period was way faster than we expected. Mahalo.
I needed a vet closer to home and found this place. The staff were all super friendly and Dr. Abella took his time examing and explaining any issues he found with my cat. All recommended treatments was communicated in a way that didn't make me feel pressured. The staff even added a military discount even though I didn't ask for it, which is greatly appreciated. Overall a very positive experience.
The staff and doctors at Aloha are responsive, compassionate, and very knowledgeable. I've been a client here since they opened, and these characteristics have remained consistent over the years with my 4 dogs, 2 cats, and 2 bunnies (back when they treated bunnies).
