RIP Gandalf and Big Bird, you are missed.
A basic check varies by region. That sounds slightly high, but my guess is NJ ranks as a high service cost state. What you quote is just the beginning, however. Lab tests, almost certainly recommended, can be costly.

Around here its about $200.00 not sure how it works in Jersey but here you call / go on line and get a price list and what they suggest.

Then you can come on here with what he suggested and find out what HAS to be done and what can wait.

OMG! Our basic eval/consultation was $50.00. We are in south Texas below Houston. Wishing you both the best of luck!
