know a good site for finding good herp vets?

Hi, I don't know what's wrong with her but I need to take my snake to the vet. and I'm NOT going to the one I took her last time, I don't think he knew what he was doing, I had taken her in because her tail looked funny and this was shortly after I got her and she is my first and thus far only snake. I thought it was scale rot, and the doc just have me medicine for scale rot, I applied as told and then about a month later the tip of her tail fell off, apparently the last owner hadn't been keeping the humidity high enough (they told me to keep it between 30-40% -_-') well she had bad sheds that cut off the circulation, at least that's what I've come to understand.

Any how, Does anyone know a good vet or a site where I can find a good vet, I live in Tremonton Utah and am more than willing to drive all the way out to SLC in order to take her to a good Herp vet.

PLEASE HELP!

Rubbermaid tub lined with paper towel or a towel works. Failing that a pillowcase tied off is just fine.

For transport I put mine in a snake bag, then put the bag in a tub. My husband had a snake pop the lid off a tub in-transit on the interstate, which made life... interesting. Using both is also nice in the winter for trips, as you can put a heat pack in the tub to help keep the snake warm.

We have our very own list right here on BP.net! :)

LOL...yes, moving again! I'm getting too old for this...stuff! :P But luckily I'm nearing the end of the ordeal now, and almost settled in without too much drama or broken goods. :gj:
