Exotic Medicine & Surgery
We take pride in being one of the few clinics in Central Ohio that will see and treat Exotic patients. Ranging from reptiles, small mammals, primates, and birds, Dr. Headlee will see them all! Like dogs and cats, annual exams are recommended for these sensitive creatures. Educating our clients about proper husbandry and proper diet is one of the most important parts of your pets visit, ensuring they live a happy and healthy lifestyle in a habitat that best suits their needs!
Our clinic offers a private, exotic exam room equipped with all of the gadgets to help their visit be as stress-free as possible.

What do I need to bring to my exotic pet's veterinary appointment?
- Bring photo(s) of your pets enclosure. It is important for our Doctor to have a clear and visual understanding of your pets environment at home. The environment is crucial when it comes to your exotic pets health, and as much information you can provide our team with regarding the care of your pet, the better!
- A fresh stool sample. A stool sample up to 24 hours before to your appointment is recommended that you bring to your appointment. Bringing a stool sample will allow us to check for possible parasites that will need treated.
- A small bag of your pets favorite dry foods. Knowing the brand of food your feeding your pet is helpful as well!
