A Sticky of Reptile Vets People Use?

[Andie]

Admins...

I was wondering if it might be a good idea to have a sticky of the reptile vets people use/recommend in different parts of the country.

Some recent posts have highlighted the importance of seeing a vet who knows their reptiles. (Of course in the most dire of emergencies any vet may be better than no vet.) I think that this is very important information that we should be helping each other out with. I know who the vets in my city are from reading magazines but prefer personal recommendation of care.

No Negatives!!!! No flaming a 'bad vet'. People could just say the one they use/have used that they like.

It would also be a great aid to panicking newbies! It would be good to refer them to.

My thought was simply something like:

Location:

Practice Name:

Vet's Name:

Phone Number:

Website:

It is a good idea, there is a nationwide list of herp vets in wiki though

So there is. I have been on this site for almost a year and never knew that wiki part existed.

So perhaps just a sticky that is a link to that. A panicked newbie (or even semi-experienced keeper like me) is going to look in herp help for that kind of thing.

Contact a Moderator. Go to Quick Links, to the left of the Log Out button, Moderator List is second from the bottom.

Send one a message and they add your vet quick smart.
