Dr. Hartman prescribed the wrong medication. I took my seven year old miniature poodle to him for emergency consult and testing of the Inter Occular Pressure of his eye because my own vet did not have the instrument to do this test. The pressure was elevated at 30 which was above normal indicating a glaucoma. \r
\r
However, I pointed out that I had observed this odd, uneven appearance of the eye (I am a nurse) not thinking the cloudiness was characteristic of cataract, prompted him to reexamine the eye more closely. He then announced his findings to be ""anterior luxated lens"". This was causing the secondary glaucoma in his eye as his other eye was normal. It is a painful condition and may have resulted from the trauma of a fall my dog had over a month ago that left him briefly paralyzed. \r
\r
He then made this matter of fact decision that I would just take my dog to Memphis for surgery and then he was no longer interested to be involved when I told him I would prefer to see a local eye specialist in Russellville. He said he didn't 'know anything about him' to recommend him. I told him I knew about him and would go there as a referral from Dr. Fulton in Greenbriar. However, he recommended to start medication to decrease the IOP in my dog's eye until I could see the specialist.\r
\r
I went straight to Walgreens and paid $73 for it and put it in my dog's eye. Then I got up at 3 AM to be sure he got it again 12 hours later. By the time I got him to the eye surgeon, Dr, Hodgson, in Russellville at 9:30, the pressure in his eye was 58! This medicine had made the pressure go up! Dr. Hodgson did surgery to remove the lens in the early afternoon. This medicine ended up causing my dog pain and decreased his chances of having a successful outcome of his surgery to save the sight in his eye. It's a blessing he only got it twice!\r
\r
Dr. Hartman knew what the problem was, but he didn't know how to correctly treat this problem. The sad part is he obviously doesn't know he didn't know what he was doing in this case. This is malpractice! I plan to let him know and ask for a refund. \r
