I was looking for a quality avian vet and though there wasn't a big selection to choose, I chose this over another I had visited b/c the other was holistic & didn't even have equipment to remove breeder band from my green Cheeked Conure. The dr. has a a lot of experience & seems to love what he does, very bird savy. Though the office is small and somewhat outdated, I believe he was the better choice as far as updated experience. I asked a couple patients of their experiences & they were both favorable. I even drive 45 minutes to get to this specialist b/c we love our Conure and want her to be healthy for the rest of lifetime.
