sadly I don't know a good vet on LI at this time but I'll look into it for you.
if I'm not mistaken, there is a member from LI that has planty of chams and I'm sure if he shows up he'll have a good one for you.
even in Brooklyn and the city, there are not many good reliable vets that deal with chams...it's realy sad out here.

if anything, you could start making some phone calls and see if they know of any vets close to your area that deals with chams.
I'm sorry I couldn't be more helpfull.
even I am looking for a better vet in my area of Brooklyn.

well this sucks, cause i know exactly who you're talkin about and was at his office for the first time like 2 weeks ago. ive got to go back in another 2 weeks but from what ive heard from a lot of people he's one of the best on the island. yea, i got the impression that he wasnt able to home in on EVERYTHING i was saying but i figured hes a busy guy who has to deal with a lot of exotics every day so i think he knows what hes talkin about. only other vet i know on the island is on my way to work in huntington heidi hoefer of island exotics veterinary shes also supposed to be less expensive but in my experiences (with practically everything i pay for) if you pay the extra money you are usually getting a better deal. but, lets see if anyone else has any input being ive only been to him once.

That's who I have been using, I've heard the same about him, that he is the best one in the area. Dean is actually the one who recommended him to me. He definatley seems to know more than the other vet I went to, but this problem with my little guy has been the same since April. When I suggested to him that the breeder told me to give him baytril & Genamicin, he kind of blew that off, and never game him baytril, and took a month & a half to give me the genamicin (even though those drops didn't work). I had also told him that he sleeps until 1pm, sometimes and goes to sleep at 4pm, and the only thing he said was hmmm strange?

Wish you could get him to my vet. He's a chameleon expert. You might want to consider shipping him. www.kirkmanareavet.com

I'm willing to drive to NJ or Conn. if I have to, or even northern NY. It's so sad that I can't find a good vet here! I guess shipping would be an option, but wouldn't it cause a lot of stress for him, being shipped there and back, and being in a different environment for a few days?
