Texas dental clinic abruptly closes, leaving patients in the lurch

Sherwood Dental Clinic in Amarillo, Texas, has permanently closed without alerting its patients, local news outlet KAMR reported Feb. 22.

Patients are unable to connect with the clinic. It remains unclear why it has closed.

"I've been contacted by about 15 people that also prepaid for their treatment," Michelle Cassity, a former patient of Sherwood Dental Clinic, told KAMR. "Nobody was advised that they were shutting down their office. We're all just in limbo with half finished treatments and no money."

A sign taped to the office's front door reads "office permanently closed," according to the report. The website is also inactive.

The Better Business Bureau is investigating the case.
