Absolutely horriable he said he's dental certified to my family too!!! in fact said he's the only certified in ct, this was about our cat after he already had 5 teeth pulled ! And wanted to do more ! I thought that was odd and thought no way in hell is he the only certified dental vet in ct ! So funny to do some leave do research and people are saying these same claims he used on us. After my mom asked how much this was going to cost he looked at her and said well you own a business right ? My option what the f*** does that have to do with the cat !? Or are you lookin at us as a dollar sign? Trying to back us in a corner to believe he's the only in ct and we have to pay him cause no one else can do what he can for the animal. HIGHLY DO NOT RECOMMEND!!!

Meeting Donald Deforge was the worst experiences of my lifetime. His 'treatment' of my cat has been described by my friends as 'animal experimentation' and 'torture.' Please read the details of what occurred at www.justiceforsimba.com



I would also like to add that I have read reviews of Dr. Deforge confronting his clients on the internet and calling them 'unbalanced' and other negative terms. Is this who you want for your vet? As a licensed mental health professional, I can assure you that Donald Deforge is NOT qualified to assess or comment on the mental health or status of any human. Him doing so is actually practicing medicine (human) without a license and is against the law.



We are required to post this disclaimer so here it is. 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."



This was a 4.5 year long legal process. I spent $24,000 on Simba's unneeded surgery and medical care after the negligence.
