It's been nearly two months, and I'm not going to a vet anytime soon, but today I spoke with some local folks in the reptile scene about vets. They all overwhelming recommended a guy that I now plan on going to in the future for Maze's yearly check-up.
And then something interesting happened. I mentioned the name of the practice I went to, and someone who used to work there popped up. She said that the attitude the reptile vet displayed is not only typical of the practice, but also just an inkling of how they treat their employees. So now I'm super glad my instincts screamed at me that his guy is Bad News, because I do NOT want to support a business that treats their employees that badly.
Random update, but. Dang. Was not expecting that, but I'm not exactly surprised.
