Avian & Exotic Vet in Palmyra
Care for Birds, Reptiles & Mammals in Palmyra
At Palmyra Animal Clinic, our general practice veterinarians offer routine pet wellness and preventive care services for your bird or other exotic pet. Exotic pets can also be treated for medical or behavioral concerns.
- Wellness & Preventive Care
Similar to cats and dogs, regular preventive veterinary care can help birds and other exotic pets live long, happy and healthy lives. Our veterinarians are trained to provide care and look after husbandry needs and veterinary treatment of these species.
During your pet's initial wellness visit, we will review your pet's housing, nutrition and care needs in detail. The vet will perform a complete and thorough physical exam. We can also discuss and recommend health screening tests and vaccines, along with health or behavior concerns and any husbandry issues before answering any questions you may have. Recommendations will be tailored to the needs of your pet and their family.
- Sick Pet Appointments & Daytime Emergencies
Some of our veterinarians offer limited care for pocket pets, owned birds and select reptile species. Our doctors are able to see exotic breeds for preventative physical exams as well as minor illnesses or injuries. Please call our office to discuss your pet’s needs and scheduling availability. There may be some instances where your pet may benefit from seeing an avian or exotic specialist. Please note that exotic patients are scheduled for longer time blocks, warranting an increased examination fee.
- After Hours Emergencies
Our clinic is equipped to handle medical needs for select illnesses or injuries for exotic patients. Please note that we do not currently have an avian or exotic specialist on our staff. In cases where your pet requires specialty care, we can provide records and recommendations for further assistance.
Please call in advance if possible to find out if a vet is available to evaluate your exotic pet.
Specialist Referrals
If your veterinarian finds that your pet requires a procedure or expertise that we do not offer at Palmyra Animal Clinic, we can refer you to an experienced exotic pet specialist in the area. We are connected to a network of exceptional veterinary specialists.
