    Veterinarian list

    All these threads where people say that a snake needs a Vet got BG to thinking. When BG is thinking, that's some major muscle working there.

    Is there a list of qualified Vets on this site? BG couldn't find it, but it would be a GREAT idea.

    Big Gunns has seen too many people take their snake to an unqualified reptile Vet with tragic results. Big Gunns always loves it(hates it) when someone tells him about their snake that they took to the Vet and the Vet is doing some reeeeedd****culous treatment for it...and often with lethal results.

    Big Gunns thinks this site should have a state by state list of qualified Vets.

    Here are two that BG will give the thumbs up.

    Dr. Adam Denish in the Philly area.
    Dr. Scott Stahl in Virginia.

    DO NOT TAKE YOUR REPTILE TO ANY OLD VET!!!!!!!!!

    Big Gunns, you have thought of a GREAT idea. I completely agree with you 100%. I have a good vet that I visit one time to get antibiotics for my Kingsnake when he had an RI, and now it is all gone

    Though I'm not one to link her site, she has a fantastic source of reptile vets available in all states.
    I do however, think that it should be posted somewhere on this website and updated with vets that the members here have had successes with.

    Big Gunns has another good Vet in NJ, but he needs to make sure she is still practicing there. It has been a while.

    There was such a list on this site, but I am unable to find it now.

    In Edmond, OK, there is Dr. Brad Minson at the Banfield clinic inside Petsmart. I know it's a Banfield, but this vet really knows his herps, and he's AMAZING at what he does. Another vet that I'd take my reptiles to if Dr. Minson isn't available is Dr. Rachel Reeves, at Neel Vet Clinic

    Dr. Gold in Maryland is one of the Vets that Pete Kalh uses...BG thinks.

    There are many states missing from this list though. It needs an update.

    Re: Veterinarian list

    Is that thread stickied? Why was it so hard to find? I know I saw it awhile ago because I added my amazing exotics vet to the list but now its harder to find?
