The Animal Care Hospital was established in 1994 by Dr. Cindy Krach and Dr. Dennis Brown. Their commitment to you and to the island of Maui helped create who we are today. It is through their dedicated work that has allowed Animal Care to become a reputable entity in Kula and throughout the island. Following their retirement, Dr. Dennis M. Barros continues the practice with the same aloha but with an ambitious dedication. His hope is to transform Animal Care Hospital into a practice capable of addressing ANY case that should arrive at our facility. If you seek a level of care that surpasses all others, Dr. Barros brings nearly 30 years of experience as a doctor and former leader of several highly rated hospitals on the mainland. His vast experience in the field of medicine and surgery has assisted numerous facilities to become some of the top hospitals in the bay area of California. In a short time, Dr. Barros has quickly established his reputation on island
