    Cost of a vet trip?

    So I was wondering how much a vet trip costs ya'll? I know that is pretty general but I was looking for stuff like how much the appointment costs? How much for common medications? And maybe even how much it would cost for a minor surgery? Basicly any costs ya'll have experienced. Thanks!

    My vet charges a $60 exotic exam fee
    Meds are pretty cheap. Usually ranging $3-20 in my experience.
    It's the tests to determine what's wrong with your animal that is really expensive. Cultures can range $100-150. Blood work may be $100-200 as well.
    Surgeries of course are going to be a couple hundred dollars to several thousand depending on the type of surgery.

    Cost me $60 for my first Bp to be treated for a ri. But, this was before I learned that a culture SHOULD have been done.

    Have yet to have to go to the vet since then, but found a much better exotic vet
