Do not bring your exotic reptile to this vet. We were having a small issue with our Veiled Chameleons tongue and sought some advice from them. He was fine besides having a calcium deficiency, which would have been fixed easily. He was having some trouble swallowing a cricket at the vet and they brought him to the back to check a few things. When they brought him back out to us they said they had removed the cricket because he was having trouble swallowing. Even though they were told this was becoming the usual and he just needed time, when we looked him over his veil was broken. Who ever handled him during that time was not gentle enough and it ultimately killed our chameleon after 3 weeks of suffering, swallowing his tongue, having to be fed through a syringe, and given water the same way. Their advice was to splint his veil and give him pain medication. No one was willing to admit what happened, or take the blame.
