We provide veterinary care for a wide range of exotic animals, including birds, reptiles, amphibians, and small mammals such as rabbits, guinea pigs, ferrets, and hedgehogs. If you’re unsure whether we can treat your unique companion, give us a call. We’re always happy to help.
Yes, absolutely. Regular wellness exams are just as important for exotic pets. Many exotic species are great at hiding signs of illness, so early detection through routine checkups can make a difference in keeping them healthy and thriving.
Please bring your pet in a secure carrier or enclosure, along with any medical records, details about their recent diet, and information about their habitat or enclosure setup. This helps us get a complete picture of their health and lifestyle so we can provide the best care possible.
