First of all there is no Pet Cancer Group. It's just one doctor, Doctor Armando Villamil.

Nonetheless, we bought our Golden Retriever to see Dr. Villamil after he had already been diagnosed with Lymphoma. The doctor gave him the Wisconsin protocol, which is apparently an older protocol for dogs with cancer. It went well at first, but after the third treatment our dog nearly died from the medicine. He had 105 degree fever and survived at another vet facility only due to emergency IV's and $1,500 in treatment.

After that it was all downhill for our dog. He had pain in his belly every time he would lie down and never regained himself. The next time we saw Dr. Villamil he acted like it was business as usual. We told him we were going away for a week's vacation. He never told us our dog was at death's door, never told us his cancer had spread to his abdomen, never said he was in critical condition. Had he even remotely said any of these things we would have cancelled our trip immediately.

Two weeks later, we received a call from the pet sitter that our beloved dog wasn't eating and was hardly moving. The vet called up Dr. Villamil and recommended putting him down. Apparently, the cancer had spread to our dog's abdomen (he was in liver failure) and Dr. Villamil was unaware and never informed us.

One might think the doctor would have called us up and said he was sorry for our loss or even sent a card, but he didn't lift a finger. This is especially troubling since he botched our dog's diagnosis and didn't realize the cancer was as bad as it was.

Not only did Dr. Villamil not even call us or send condolences, his office called a week later to tell us we had an appt. This was a week after our dog died which the doctor knew about. Again, not a call from the doctor or anything from the office. This is the kind of lousy service one would expect from a huge vet factory, like Coral Springs Animal Hospital or Calusa, not a one-man band, very disappointing!
