I usually pay maybe $40 for the actual appointment, then another $40 for injections / meds, $70 for fecal exams, and our vet is certified to treat reptiles. I take my dog to the same clinic, and it seems to be about the same for her. When she was a new puppy we had a parvo scare (didn't actually end up being parvo, but it took intestinal swabs and x rays and blood tests to figure out what actually was wrong with her), and ended up paying close to $1,000 throughout that week for all the tests and treatments. It seems like a lot, but health is invaluable, and if you think about it, human health conditions are usually much more costly.
