Looking for a good vet

[cstocke]

Does anyone know of any good exotic vets that are near Mesa, AZ? My little guy (baby veiled) isn't eating hardly anything and sleeps during the day with his lights on. He is not very active around his enclose either. I really want him to get checked out and be okay. He is less than 3 weeks old and I don't want anything bad to happen to him.

Here's a list of AZ reptile vets. Kevin Wright was awesome but he passed away a few years ago.

Thank you! I did a basic search and all the exotic vets near me say they take care of reptiles but none show chams on their sites or have any information about them.

I would give the vets a call and ask if they have any chameleon experience.

Yeah, I plan to. Any ideas on what it costs to take this little guy in? I know typical dogs and cats are pretty expensive.

I would ask that also when you call. Different vets charge different amounts. My vet charges $67.00 for a check up and then extra if they have blood work or x-rays.

Please fill out the ask for help form attached below and we can see if maybe there's something in the way that you are keeping him causing him to close his eyes and not eat.

Thank you, thats a good rough estimate. I just wanted to make sure I was going to be walking into a few hundred dollars of stuff like I do when I bring my dog in.
