    Only ones I know of are Animal Care Clinic in South Elgin, and Millbrook Vet in Batavia. I take my snakes to Millbrook.

    This is my vet, and he's amazing. In all honesty, I haven't yet had to bring a snake in, but I've talked with him a lot when I'm there with my dogs and he is really knowledgeable, and he really cares about my animals. My little dog, Ellie, has horrible reactions to shots, and every other vet just gives them to her. He, however, will schedule appointments, two weeks apart, for as many shots as she needs, and doesn't charge us for it, and it helps so much. If he doesn't know the answer to something or how exactly to treat something, he calls around and researches until he finds the answer, instead of just guessing, which he did with my other dogs stomach and digestion problems. He really is a great vet.

    My vet is Dr Bray at Crest Hill animal hospital. He is an exotics vet only and travels to other places as well. I dont know if this is too far for you but he is very good and thorough. 1-815-729-1155
