About Vet

Aloha, I am a small animal veterinarian based out Hawaii. Originally from Ohio, I received a Bachelor's in Animal Science from Ohio State University in 2007. I graduated from veterinary school in 2013, graduating from from Oklahoma State University. Following graduation, I moved to Pittsburgh, PA and completed a 1 yr rotating internship at Pittsburgh Specialty and Emergency Hospital with emphasis in internal medicine, surgery and emergency medicine. Next, I worked in emergency medicine for 2.5 yrs before taking on the role of chief of staff of a large multiple doctor practice in Cleveland, OH. In 2017, I moved to Maui to accept a position with a small general practice before purchasing it in 2019. I continue to operate the clinic as a small single doctor practice in order to assure the best one on one experience for my clients and patients. I feel blessed to be able to reside in Maui with my wife, 3 daughters, 4 dogs and 2 cats :)

Dr Lester was very helpful when we didn't know what to do. Gave good advice. Thank you. A great option on the Big Island of Hawaii where emergency services are limited.

Dr. Chad was awesome and so so helpful. He gave me the closure I needed that most of Simba’s symptoms are normal in his situation. He reassured me that Simba is improving based on his day by day actions. I really appreciated his help. Thank you
