Exotic Pet Medicine and Surgery
All our veterinarians have the skills and training to care for exotic pets, often working collaboratively on cases to provide optimal care. From making sure your reptile or small fuzzy creature has the right habitat, to recommendations for a correct diet, to determining gender, our veterinarians can provide a well-rounded plan to keep your exotic pets feeling their best according to their species’ specific needs. And if something isn’t right, we get to the heart of the issue with our extensive lab, in-house pharmacy, and diagnostic tools to get your pet family member back to good health.

Once the medical care is handled, wildlife is returned to the rehabilitator for healing and eventually released back into the wild once their optimal health is restored. Wildlife we take care of has included bald eagles, hawks, owls, bobcat, baby deer, and anything else sustaining an injury in the wild.
