Too small for FMLA?

I work at a very small private practice, I've been here for almost 2 years and I am a good worker. My boss has known about an up-coming double jaw surgery in May since I started. I only make 0.043 hours of PTO every 2 weeks and he said that because we are a small private practice, they don't qualify for FMLA. My job is not in jeopardy or anything, but I won't be getting paid for the estimated 6 week recovery time so I'm going to try to pinch pennies and do it in 3 weeks. A few people have told me they legally have to provide FMLA. I'm from Ohio, is there anything I can do?
