The Rat Fan Club
Rat Vets—Midwest and Eastern U.S.
This is a large file, so please be patient while it downloads,
especially if you have Internet Explorer.
It may seem like it has “locked up” but it is just still downloading.
Listed Alphabetically by State
and City. The original list was compiled
as a cooperative effort of the Rat & Mouse Club of America, The Rat Fan
Club, and Brian Lee.
(A date after a referral is when the referral was made, and a name after a
referral is the person who made the referral.)

NOTICE!
PLEASE
do not call or email a vet who’s never seen your animals before, asking for
free advice just because you see their phone number or email address here! Make
an appointment, take your rats in, get to know the vet, and let the vet get to
know your pets. I’ve already had two VERY GOOD vets ask to have their
names removed from this list because too many people were calling for advice
without wanting to bring their pets in, and they just didn’t have time for it.
So please don’t abuse this information and try to take advantage of these vets.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Disclaimer:
Neither
The Rat Fan Club or the people who have recommended these veterinarians can
make any guarantees about the quality of work the veterinarian will perform on
your pet. And a recommendation of a particular vet should not be taken as a
recommendation of other vets at that vet hospital. (I’m not trying to insult
anyone here, I’m only saying that just because Dr. Smith knows her way around a
rat doesn’t mean Dr. Jones in the next office over does.) You should thoroughly
check out any veterinarian for yourself. We just wish to share our experience
with you, and possibly give you a place to start.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you do not find a recommended veterinarian in your
area, you might want to check the website of the Association of Exotic Animal
Veterinarians at http://www.aemv.org/
which as a group represents veterinarians who love the non-traditional
companion animal species.
From anywhere!
This vet uses homeopathic remedies
and treats over the phone!
