OMG
Someone please explain this to me !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How does a vet, with no avian qualifications charge so much more than a qualified Avian vet?
I AM TOTALLY LOST FOR WORDS....
Today out of curiosity I popped into a vet, less than a kilometer from where we live. Even though we have lived here for 5 years never been there before. I befriended the receptionist, we began chatting about birds. I asked if the vet was a qualified veterinarian, was told no, but she is very good with birds, and is a guardian to an AG.
I then asked what "Michelle" the vet, charges for clipping wings and the trimming of nails. R200.00
General Veterinarian
I converted the South African Rand to the US Dollar
1 USD = 7.8291 ZAR R200.00
United States Dollar South African Rand
Mishka and I travel 60 kilometers to the vet. The rooms are in a very posh area, in the Northern Suburbs. Dr Brett is the most qualified and respected veterinarian in South Africa. He takes his time, answering any questions, always giving great advise.
For the clipping wings and the trimming of nails, Brett only charges R85.00
Qualified Avian Veterinarian
I converted the South African Rand to the US Dollar
1 ZAR = 0.1277 USD R85.00
South African Rand United States Dollar
Hopefully my conversion is correct, not 100% sure.
