BROOKFIELD, Wis. - A Brookfield dental clinic recently closed unexpectedly, leaving patients in a jam.
Last month, FOX6 News reported that EON Clinics unexpectedly closed its Brookfield location, leaving the building wide open. FOX6 News walked right into the abandoned office with a patient, Mary Schimmel.
Local perspective:
Since her dentist disappeared a month ago, Cynthia Sagovic hasn’t done much smiling.
Sagovic said another dentist discovered a problem with the implants she had made at EON Clinics. She was forced to switch providers.

"I’ve spent over $50,000 at EON and the money is gone," Sagovic said.
Today, the door is bolted shut.
The backstory:
FOX6 News obtained an eviction letter filed in Waukesha County court. The property owner is seeking more than $120,000 from EON.
Meanwhile, Schimmel told FOX6 News by phone on Thursday, May 1, that she eventually received her records. She had paid in advance for a tooth extraction and implant, but says eon only finished half the job.

"I was angry and frustrated at those people that could run a business that way," Sagovic said. "I would like some restitution! I mean – at least give my records or my money back."
Court records show a notice was served by certified mail to EON’s owner in April. But the owner never got it and didn’t show up to a court hearing last month.
FOX6 News tried to call EON, but its phones are no longer connected.
