Is my vet stupid?

[Kavyrie]

I need to find a vet that actually does the flush. No one at that hospital has ever done it before and refuse to do it. So they wouldn't have been able to do anything for me anyways. And my care is that when I don't know what the vet is supposed to be doing but tells me things I know are wrong on how to care for my snake, then how am I supposed to feel about the rest of the information that they tell me? As far as I have been told and read, a throat swab would be sufficient for a culture to find out what's making him sick.
