I can only feel sorry for any pet who is taken to Dr. Silkman for treatment. We had a very sick cat who, after treatment, a 3 day stay, and planned release following am, had a setback requiring surgery at 3am. I was wide awake at that time, waiting to bring kitty home. Instead of calling us, the crackpot dr let our cat suffer until we arrived at opening time. He recommended immediate surgery, we agreed. He had two smiling assistants ask us if we wanted gowns to view surgery. We went into 'OR' where Silkman proceeded to show us our kitty's insides while he blamed us for our cat's situation - urinary blockage then said euthanasia was only option. This man is horrible, money hungry, and doesn't care about the animals he treats. If he did, he would've called us at 3am, or simply operated instead of waiting a critical 5 hours letting our baby suffer! Also, if you want to visit a pet, staff throws a fit, gives you dirty looks, and makes you leave after 5 minutes. Staff is almost as evil as doctor - should have seen them getting us to surgery table, they were smiling while my kitty was dying! It's been a few years and I'm shaking writing this, but feel people should know what this place is really like. Read Less
