I don't want him to be in any more pain than he already is but I also don't want to just rush into it not knowing anything about the vet doing the surgery as mentioned in my other thread by ladyjane. what to do?! what to do?! |
Wow, it's got to be tough finding a good veterinary surgeon in Japan when you don't speak Japanese! I'm sure that many, if not most, vets in Japan speak English, so maybe you can get a recommendation from your vet? I also found a link to the Japanese Board of Veterinary Practitioners, but the links in English are not user-friendly. However, there is a list of veterinary practitioners who participated in one of their conferences. Maybe you can contact one of them who lives in a city close to you for a referral? There is also an email address contact at the bottom of the page. See the link below:
