Can someone call a tree doctor?

When you see this photo what comes to mind?

“What the heck happened to this tree?!” I laughed when I first saw it.  Whatever happened, It is obviously an un-natural occurrence.

“Who would do this?!”  Surely someone is responsible for the damage and neglect.

I took this picture a year or so ago on a property less than one mile from my office, but thankfully, I was not responsible for the tree.  And, the person that asked me to look at the site never mentioned the tree or expressed any concern....
