Avian Vets

If you have a sick budgie you will want someone you can trust to help it. Most vets have amazing skills but may not have much experience with birds. Many spend most of their time treating cats and dogs, or horses and cattle.  They may be experts in these animals, but these are all mammals.  They have as many similarities as differences, so a vet can treat one species or another with confidence.  Birds, however, are very different from mammals and experience treating them is important if you are trusting them with your budgie. An avian vet would be your best bet, they are  usually working with many different types of bird and will probably be very experienced with parakeets and budgies.

It is not always possible to find an avian vet nearby though, so a good vet who has some experience with birds would be the next best thing.

I would like to start a list of excellent vets so we can help each other find a vet we can trust. If you have an avian vet you'd like to recommend, please fill in the form below to help others. If you are looking for a vet, see the list of recommended avian vets  below.
