There are many veterinarians that specialize in small and unique animals, including turtles, and while I'm positive there are some for turtles strictly, they are probably very hard to find. Many vets are willing to treat turtles however, so long as the conditions are simple.

Not exactly. There are veterinarians that specialize or focus on reptiles and amphibians though. You may even be able to talk to your local zoo to get reommendations.
