Our Own Vet List
We've decided that it would be a nice addition to BPNet to create and maintain our own Exotics Vet List. A list by members for members, listing contact information for the vet and a short comment from the BPNet member recommending that particular vet/vet clinic. Please do not recommend a vet or clinic unless you have personally used them.
You can find the list here...
http://www.ball-pythons.net/forums/s...ad.php?t=56792
If you've used an exotics vet and found them helpful, informative, cost effective, etc. and want to recommend them to our members please send a PM to me and I will add them. The list will be broken down by geographic area and hopefully will be a helpful resource for our members here.
Please remember in your PM to give me the vet's name, clinic name, address and phone number, what types of herps this vet sees (they may be good with snakes but not so great with gecko's for instance) as well as a short comment from you. Member names will be posted with each comment. If the vet/vet clinic has a website feel free to include that if you wish. If you see a vet already listed, feel free to send me your own comment to add if you've also used this vet and would recommend their services.

Re: Our Own Vet List
I would also suggest we add bad vets to the list as well. If you have been to an exotic vet that you don't recommend (list the reason) that should be included too. Just my 2 cents.

Re: Our Own Vet List
Sean, while I understand a bad vet visit is important information to know, I think as a site we would have to pass on your suggestion. Publically labelling a professional as "bad" might leave this site open to litigation. If a member has a problem with a vet and wants to talk about it in their own personal thread, that's another matter, but I think as a site we should probably just stick to the list we are now creating.

Re: Our Own Vet List
Just a reminder to our members, this is meant to be an international list so where ever you live, if you have a good exotics vet - let us hear about it.

Re: Our Own Vet List
I just tried to send a PM recommending my vet, but it says your mailbox is full. So if you don't mind, I'll post my message here instead...
Hi! I have an exotics vet to add for the city of San Francisco CA... I've only used them for my mammals thus far, but know they treat reptiles and have already consulted with one doctor about mine. Probably the ONLY exotics vet in the Bay Area, at least in San Francisco, so it would be nice to add them.
Here's their info...
All Pets Hospital
269 South Van Ness Ave
San Francisco, CA 94103
(415) 861-5725
Website: http://aphsf.com/
Reptile docs: Alex Herman & Nicola Gillespie
My comments: I have been seeing Dr. Alex Herman for my mammals, and she is wonderful... helpful, friendly, reptile enthusiast, and really seems to care about her patients. Haven't (luckily) had a need to take any herps there yet, but I'd have no qualms about using her when I do.
Lolo's Collection...
Ball Pythons: 0.4 Normals, 1.0 Pastel, 1.1 Mojaves, 1.0 Black Pastel, 2.0 Spiders, 0.1 Lesser, 1.0 Orange Ghost, 0.1 Honeybee
0.1 Spotted Python, 1.1 Stimson's Pythons, 1.0 Jungle Carpet Python
3.4 Corn Snakes, 1.1 Western Hognose Snakes, 1.2 cats, and 1.0 dog (47lb mutt)

Is this still being updated on a regular basis? If so I have an addition for Mississippi. Being that there isn't a single submission for MS, it could potentially be very helpful.
Let me know if I should still send a PM, or if I should make a thread mentioning the Vet and his whereabouts.

Your PM is full so here is my recommendation:
All Pet Animal Hospital
5354 Route 8
Gibsonia, PA 15044
724-444-6600
http://www.allpet.vetsuite.com/Templ...quisitive.aspx
Dr. Kellie Person
Dr Edward Bennett
Have been there twice once for a scale rot problem medicine Dr. Person gave fixed it right up and now for RI and my snake is making a swing to health. Have not taken any other reptiles but have to call them for a follow up question on a dog health matter and will ask them there treatment knowledge of other reptiles and amphibians. Highly recommend them great and friendly staff always helpful and respectful fun to work with.
