I know of Angell Memorial and Tufts Grafton, but any other vets? I've had bad experiences with Angell and Tufts didn't have a specialist on a normal business day when I had an emergency. Thanks!
Boston vets?

If you want to drive to RI, Dr Cyndi Brown is absolutely the best. She used to be my vet in NJ until she moved to RI. I miss her. She is at Ocean State Veteinary Specialists (401) 886-OSVS (6787. East Greenwich, RI

He is awesome and very inexpensive. My daughter did her internship there this summer and I take by chins there when needed.

I called there and they said they don't see chinchillas...sigh.
Also their website, (which says they treat chins) has this info:
DIETS - We recommend that guinea pigs and chinchillas are fed 1/8 cup of maintenance pellet, unlimited timothy or mixed grass hay, and a small amount of dark green, leafy vegetables (NO SPINACH) each day.
Tufts Grafton no longer has anyone that can treat chinchillas.
Angell Memorial was the worst experience I've ever had and I will never return (claim to have exotic vet but do not).
I have no car so I can't get to RI easily, but I did call them and they were very nice. It'd take me 3 hours on public transportation, good to know.
I'll be going to the Odd Pet Vet on Saturday, and I really hope it goes well. As of yet I don't have an emergency vet that I can call. You would think there would be more options in the Boston area?
