Leonard-Sykes Hospital For Pets

Best advice, If going to Leonard Sykes Hospital for Pets please make your appointment with Dr. John Kiloran, a kind, caring, gentle and well educated veterinary doctor instead of Dr. Sykes. Leonard-Sykes Hospital for pets interior reflects Dr. Sykes personality, dark, cynical, nasty and rude. This office should be shut down, its rooms lack cleanliness, the wound area is dirty, and, also where ill/post surgical animals in cages are kept. The stress these pets endure watching and hearing a wounded animal crying out is unbearable. This doctors young assistants do not wear gloves and assist with bloody/infected animal tissue at the approval of Dr. Sykes who sees nothing wrong with them not wearing protective gloves while he wears them only! This doctor seems full of anger, is arrogant, argumentative, vulgar and cynical. He is in favor of "putting them to sleep" versus trying to save pets with other treatments. Suggestion: clean, scrub, remove all old wood paneling, paint, separate the ill/post surgery pets in a decent room other than a traumatizing wound area, for starters. Then, Dr. Sykes, take a vacation, get some help or better yet retire.

Dr. John Kiloran, located at Leonard-Sykes Hospital for Pets, is the best vet we have ever had. This veterinary doctor is kind, caring, professional and is a brilliant doctor. He is gentle with your pet and kind to you at the same time. He is just short of a saint and never stops giving you hope.

Dr. Sykes is the best Vet. in Wilmington, NC

Unfortunately if this VET does NOT update his offices, to show that he truly has the animals and people in mind, his business will continue to fail. His offices are the oldest and most out-dated in a bad way. Any VET who does NOT invest in his own business has NO right being in business. PERIOD. Sykes shows that he DOES NOT care about the animals nor the people that go there for professional advice and/or care. Obviously 'money' is the most important thing to this VET. Update your exam rooms, your walls, your floors, and most importantly your equipment. Otherwise, no one is going to show up here., nor should they take their sick animals at this OLD -out-dated place. I don't trust a VET that does not care/invest into his own business/offices. NOT clean, not updated, means all profit, which means no love for animals and people alike. GET WITH IT!

Dr. Sykes is one of the kindest men I know. We had to put our little poodle Chico down for a blown disc in his back. Dr. sykes took the time to tell us the pros and cons of what surgery would do and then let us have some time with Chico before we made our decision...We decided he didn't need to suffer anymore and Dr. Sykies let us be with him while he went to be in Jesus's arms...Thanks Dr. Sykes....I appreciate all you did...and God bless the staff
