    It breaks my heart to leave this review and warning.This veterinarian is so kind but is experiencing clear signs of dementia . Upon arrival I noted how incredibly unsanitary the entire office is. My best guess is it hasn't been cleaned in years. There are used syringes in open air and no cabinets for any medicine organization/storage.I had explained over the phone, my reason for bringing in my dog, and upon arrival, I was asked all of the same questions as if we had never spoken before. In my ***************************************************************************************************************************** the question 45 seconds prior. While I was in the consultation, the office also received two calls from debt collectors which the doctor hung up on. I believe his ability to maintain his finances, as well as his practice, are simply out of his control. He is so kind and so gentle clearly loving animals but unfortunately is my honest opinion beyond capability to safely, treat pets. Beyond simply leaving a negative review, I have filed a formal complaint and attached the form for other reviewers to do the same here.*****************************************************************
