Hi there - I was just wondering if anyone knows of any vets in (NE) London who are particularly good with guinea pigs? I had a bit of a disaster on Christmas Eve when one of my 3 year old boars had a very swollen abdomen and evidence of chewing/pulling on his nipples. I got an out of hours appointment at a local vet (I was staying with my parents in the East Midlands), which ended up costing me £230 all told for a vet who told me she'd only just qualified and hadn't treated many guinea pigs so had to google everything. I wasn't particularly confident with her diagnosis so I watched some youtube videos when I got home and saw a load created by a vet in the US who is clearly very expert with guinea pigs. I'm currently registered with Goddard Vets in London who have always seemed fine, but I'm just wondering if anyone knows of any equivalents in London of vets who are *particularly* knowledgeable about guineas? Thanks in advance!
 
It could also be worth contacting rescues in your area and asking for their vet recommendations too.
