I live in Seguin, which is not too far from you. I would recommend a vet that is a member of the ARAV. There is a vet
in Austin that is a member of the ARAV. His name is Dr. Scott
Echols, West Gate Pet and Bird Hospital, 4601 S Lamar, Austin,
TX 78145. My vet is here in Seguin, and is a member of the ARAV.
Dr. Rob Coke, who is a Senior Staff Vet for the San Antonio Zoo,
is one of the most experienced vets, on old world chameleons.
He is also a member of the ARAV, and Dr. Echols should know
him. My vet communicates with Dr. Coke when it is needed.
I hope that this helps.
