Having access to a veterinarian qualified to, and
experienced in treating leopard geckos is key to raising a
healthy leopard gecko. Your vet can easily be you and
your gecko's best friend by helping to prevent health
problems from developing, as well as properly treating your
gecko should something happen.
Dr. Gecko strongly recommends that you have ensure you
have access to such a vet BEFORE you bring home a gecko -
this could save you valuable time in the event of the
emergency.
Some people like to bring their new pet into the vet for
a quick checkup which also allows your vet to familiarize
themselves with the specific gecko. At the very least
you should have a fecal
exam (typically 3 consecutive fecals are actually
recommended) done as soon as you bring home a new pet.
