Thomas J. Sheridan, D.V.M. of Folly Road Animal Hospital in Charleston, SC was arrested on August 10, 2000 by the Charleston County Sheriff's Department and charged with professional misconduct for the abuse of several animals under his care. The Respondent's license to practice veterinary in SouthCarolina was temporarily suspended.

However, Magistrate Skip Gosnell dismissed the charges after Sheridan's lawyers argued that under state law veterinarians could not be charged for actions taken during a medical procedure.

Although under South Carolina law, the criminal charges against Dr. Sheridan were dismissed, two of his former vet techs and six animal owners filed a civil complaint against him, and Dr. Sheridan eventually settled it.

More complaints have been filed against him and Folly Road Animal Hospital (1038 Folly Road, Charleston, SC).

Sheridan was the consulting veterinarian for the South Carolina aquarium, only until recently. They are currently searching for a full-time veterinarian according to a News 2 Interview. The aquarium has knowledge of the criminal charges brought against him, the civil law suit, as well as the previous disciplinary board actions against him.
