Hawaii Board of Veterinary Medicine

The Hawaii Board of Veterinary Medicine licenses veterinarians and veterinary technicians practicing in the state and enforces the Hawaii Veterinary Practice Act. It sets education and examination requirements, investigates complaints of unprofessional conduct or negligence, and can suspend or revoke licenses. Given Hawaii's unique biosecurity concerns as an island state, the board also engages with animal disease prevention standards.

Pet owners in Hawaii depend on this board to ensure their veterinarians are properly licensed and held accountable for the quality of care. If you have a concern about a veterinarian or veterinary technician, you can file a complaint with the board.
