We hope you never have the to endure what we did! Our opinion is that, we do NOT recommend Donald H. Deforge, VMD.

 

 

Disclaimer: "Lisa Taylor-Austin believes there was merit to her claims that Dr. Deforge negligently cared for her cat, Simba, and that he misrepresented whether he was a Board-certified dental specialist.  Dr. Deforge denies these claims and asserts that the Department of Public Health's veterinary board cleared him of any wrong doing. However, Dr Deforge agreed to pay $7,500.00 to compensate Ms. Taylor-Austin because he believed the risks inherent in any lawsuit and the cost of missing two weeks from his practice made it imprudent to go to trial."

Note: This was a 4.5 year long process. Simba's medical care, including and after Donald H. Deforge's surgery, and all legal fees was in excess of $20,000.
