Avian & Exotic Veterinarians

Avians (birds) and exotic companion animals require routine wellness visits to a veterinarian just like cats and dogs, but they have very different anatomy and physiology than furry, four-legged pets. Because of this, your family veterinarian may refer you to a veterinarian specializing in their care.
