Years ago, when a pet owner’s reptile was sick, they would take it back to the pet store where it was purchased. Doug Mader, MS, DVM, DABVP (C/F, R/A), DECZM (Herpetology), owner of Marathon Veterinary Hospital in Florida, explains that today, pet owners turn to Dr. Google to find out what is wrong with their pet reptile.
