If you go to www.wuzzles.com and click on FAQ there is a chart of all the vets in the Phoenix area who treat ferrets, and most important comments from owners about how they rate the vets. I don't know about costs or payments; you would have to call around to find out. Dr. Svoboda at Palm Glen Animal Hospital is most recommended. He has helped me over the phone with some information. But then I don't know his fees. Carol Owens Ferret Friends, Inc. Tucson AZ [Posted in FML 5920]
