Well, we've actually got TWO! vets to brag on here in the St. Louis area. Our regular vet is Dr. Mark Lux Mackenzie Pointe ANimal Hospital 314-353-0808 He is a wonderful doctor, willing to learn about ferrets, has a great bedside manner, gives the shelter a 25% discount, and is willing to let us carry a balance. He even puts the shelter information up on his bulletin board. For more specialized care, we go to Dr. Wright Howdershell Animal Hospital 314-838-3575 Another wonderful vet who loves ferrets and knows a lot about them. We go to him for second opinions and tricky surgeries, and both vets talk to each other. Let's hear it for ALL the wonderful vets out there!
