It does depend on where you live but on average I would say an exam is about $30-70, but could be higher for an exotic specialist. If you are on a budget, it is worth calling around your area - and I would also ask if they are comfortable treating hamsters as not all vets are! I hope this helps!

    I'm sorry to hear that Biscuit is sick! Exam prices will vary depending on where you live and what specific clinic you go to, so I would recommend calling around to some local veterinary clinics in your area to ask if they see hamsters, and find out what their normal exam price is. They should be happy to provide this information for you over the phone.
