In my opinion, reading care sheets about your animal, and asking for advice from more experienced keepers (as you are doing on here right now), can save you a lot of unnecessary vet visits for things you can deal with yourself, like stuck sheds, etc.
On the other hand, it's a good idea to try and have enough money on standby for at least a single vet visit if possible, because it's really hard to know what's going on with reptiles - they don't seem as obviously sick as mammals do until it's quite far along and urgent.
You do, however, need to find a specific reptile vet in your area - not all vets know much about reptiles.
