Hi everyone...I am going to try to get a list going of all the reptile Vets that I can find. Then we'll put it here in it's own section to be used by anyone needing a Vet. So if you have a Vet that you know sees exotics, and you like them and recommend them would you please send all the information, name, address, phone number to me in a private message? I'd really appreciate it. This may take me a while so be patient...thanks!!!

Excellent Idea Maggie. Did you think of that?

Well, yes, I did. Think about how often we tell a newbie he needs to take his tortoise to a Vet, and because he's new he doesn't have a reptile Vet so one of us more experienced folks have to hunt up a Vet for them. And while I certainly don't mind, it would be nice to have a list that all the forum members could go to...don't you agree?

Plus, Maggie is going to call all the vets she that you folks send her to be sure they still take care of turtles and tortoises. This is going to be a valuable asset to our forum.

Thanks Maggie!!

I do agree Maggie. I'm thinking this going to be a great benefit to the forum and the people who come here. I know I would have loved that when I started here.

Eeeeh, excuse me but isn't your request a little bit... vague?
Is this list international or what?

She did state she was going to include all vets recommended by members, including Canada, so I assume it would include other countries (this site is originated in the U.S. although we have many international members). What clarification do you need? I assume Maggie needs the vet's name and contact information, such as phone and address.

Its not vague in the least. If you know of a good tortoise vet, whether they're in Dubai, Hong Kong or Fresno, CA, then Maggie would like for you to send her a private message with the vet's information so she can compile a list.

I don't see anything vague at all in my request. If you know a good reptile Vet PM me with the information. Maybe the letters PM are too vague for you? That means private message me. You can go to your user settings and send me a private message with the information you have on a reptile Vet that YOU have used and like.
I have been sitting at this computer for 3 hours inputting the information I was given and I have just now made it to Delaware, so evidently only YOU think my request was vague. I think a Vet list is for the betterment of the forum as a whole. I don't care if he's in Redding Calif or Dubai. If your Vet is good send me the information.
