More Dr. Nolte Stories
I don't know how Dr. Nolte has been permitted to continue practice or how he could be hired by the Zoo. I have had a similar experience as those reported. Over twenty years ago when he was on North Salisbury Blvd. we brought our ill cat to him. He diagnosed the illness and said the cat would be fine. Although it was many years ago and my memory may not be perfect, I am fairly sure of the following. After several days we did not hear from the Dr. so I called. The cat had died but, as stated, we received no notification of that and I don't know what happened to its remains or what it died of. Several months later we received a bill. I refused to pay it since we were not treated in a professional manner and have used other Veterinarians ever since. GO HERE to read more stories about Dr. Nolte the Veterinarian.

That's very interesting that you are not sure of the exact details Joe, but wanted to post another slanderous story about Dr. Nolte JUST to make a link to all the other trash from another day. What ever your intent of all this garbage, you are leaving out some details.
Do you pay WMDT to produce your stories? When they do their story on Dr. Nolte and this tragic horse story I hope they also produce all documentation from the other vets and their names and proof that they have never themselves left a patient's owner less than satisfied.
It would also be interesting for those who don't know horses to see the pictures of this horse next to a picture pointing to a horse's WITHERS. Fistula withers occurs at the base of a horse's mane - where the withers are! Not that this wasn't another fistula but you have your facts about basic equine first aid all wrong. Also, fistula withers is most commonly caused by an improperly fitting saddle rubbing a sore on the horse's wither (this would be your fault if this is how it started). Sometimes these sores can abscess, ooze, and puss. This abscess can possibly become more inflamed and become fistula. Most horse owner's are familiar with the signs. Proud flesh is another concern of these types of injuries. Also, this area is very hard to treat as horse's are large and hard to keep immobile. It can be treated by opening an area to drain low on the horse's shoulder (perhaps this is what your picture is for). It is very serious and well thank goodness your horse started to colic so that you did take him somewhere to receive expert treatment. It is your ignorance, Denise, that has you so upset and not Dr. Nolte's lack of care or concern about your horse.
Who gives your horse routine shots? Why didn't they treat your horse? Dr. Nolte is not an equine specialist and does not claim to be so. How can you complain your service was not the best when you did not go to the best. I am guessing there is more to this story. Like no one else could come see your horse and maybe you couldn't take him to one of our area's super busy equine vets because at the time you didn't have a trailer (as you mention you now have). So you did the best you could do for your horse at the time and so did Dr. Nolte.
And when you do your story, Stacy, will you please let us know if the zoo is complaining? Has their staff been upset with Dr. Nolte's work. And if they are have they been successful in finding another vet to volunteer his time like Dr. Nolte does? If you force him out by creating this crazy blog do you know that our zoo animals will have medical attention by the best exotic specialist out there that never makes mistakes, never has a bad day, and never ever lets anything get infected or die? And when we find that person will each of you questioning Dr. Nolte donate to pay his/her salary? Do you donate to the zoo now?
