    It doesn't matter what they think, what matters is you and your toad. I would take him in to a Vet, and ignore whatever insults or comments they make about him. They are there to help your pet, and they'll be failing their job as a Veterinarian if they refuse.
    My Amphibians:
    1.0.0 Rana Catesbiana (Bumpy Digtoad )
    1.0.0 Pseudacris Regilla (Levi )
    1.1.0 Ambystoma Macrodactylum (Urtham and Gargan )
    2.2.0 Bombina Orientalis ( Rosa, Sasha, Aleksis, and Dimitri )

    Rest in Peace, Gnag the Nameless, Chrome, and Thermidor

    If there is a vet is accessible go for it, if a leg is broken that is the only way to make sure a frog won't suffer, pest or not doesn't matter, if you are a client coming with your pet I'm sure they are going to be professional. any vet if someone would bring in someone damaged, pet or not, would take care of it.
    Save one animal and it doesn't change the world, but it surely changes the world for that one animal!

    How is toad doing Elizabeth? Agree with Caspian and Lija! Unless the government in P.R. has a written law directing veterinarians to refuse treatment for cane toads or other pests; think a veterinary that normally handles exotics should not refuse care for your frog. Good luck !
    Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !​

    I suggest you keep her in the hospital set-up at least a couple weeks and maybe up to a month. Also, gravel is an impaction risk if toad feeds there. Good luck !
