explain DKS then... just because you guys and me wouldnt take our Ts to the vet doesnt mean everybody would do the same.. not much research has been done on illnesses of arachnids and thats obviously what this Doc is trying to do. Yes you can spread some crazy glue on your T to help with a wound but wat about sicknesses inside your T. what would you do then? would you operate on your own T? and obviously not everyone would able to afford this kind of service but thats why you wouldnt take your common G.rosea to get checked out. you would only take important or rare species to get treatments like this.Trust me, it is NOT too heavy. A 7.5" LP is heavier than any 5 or 6" G. rosea. Also, you're right, glass tanks are expensive. That's why I, and many hobbyyists, don't use them. There are better alternatives that can provide better safety for your Ts and won't leave you with an empty wallet.
There's no reason for it to become common practice to take Ts to the vet. That's just wasting money. I don't pay anyone to mow my grass because I can do it myself. Same with a "T vet", I can do the same thing and everything I would ever need to do can be found on here. There is no special equipment, medicine, or procedures that they have, that we don't. For Ts, at least.
