Here at Essex Veterinary Center most of the problems we see in reptiles are related to owners having the incorrect information on how to care their exotic pets. Bring in your reptile and we can come up with a detailed plan to address any husbandry flaws that may exist in your current setup as well as go over their diet to ensure you are meeting their nutritional requirements

Ask our office for a reptile questionnaire to fill out prior to our seeing one of your pets.
