  • Their site lists waterfowl as patients — ask whether Dr. Lisa Carr is in on the day you need to come.
  • Ask for the exam fee up front, and what bloodwork or X-rays add on top.
  • Ask whether they are taking new avian patients.
  • Ask where they send after-hours emergencies. The nearest 24-hour clinic we list is VEG Georgetown (Veterinary Emergency Group), 14 miles away.
