About Avian and Exotic Animal Clinic

The Avian and Exotic Animal Clinic is seeking highly motivated, compassionate and experienced individuals to join our practice! The clinic has been serving the Indianapolis area with Dr. Angela Lennox, Indiana's only board-certified exotic specialist, since 1992 and has since gained national and international recognition for its expertise with exotic species! We are an avian and exotic animal exclusive practice with 6 Veterinarians, 7 Registered Veterinary Technicians and 3 Vet Assistant/CSRs. We provide cutting-edge, high-quality medicine while educating owners on proper care and husbandry. We function as a specialty and referral hospital, seeing patients from neighboring states and some as far as Canada, performing highly technical surgeries and managing difficult medical cases. Our patients include small companion mammals such as rabbits, guinea pigs, and ferrets, various avian species, a wide variety of lizards, snakes, and amphibians, to much larger and exotic species like foxes, servals, and the occasional tiger, to name a few. We also see wildlife as a free public service and work closely with a network of licensed wildlife rehabilitators.
