Dermatology
Just like humans, animals can experience a wide range of skin conditions that can cause discomfort and affect their overall well-being. Veterinary dermatology focuses on diagnosing and treating these conditions, ensuring that your pet's skin remains healthy and free from any discomfort or pain.
Our Services
- Skin Disease Diagnosis: Our skilled veterinarians are trained to identify and diagnose various skin conditions that may affect your pet. Through a comprehensive examination and, if necessary, additional tests such as skin scrapings or biopsies, we can determine the underlying cause of your pet's skin issues.
- Allergy Testing and Treatment: Just like humans, pets can also suffer from allergies. Allergies in animals often manifest through skin-related symptoms. These can include excessive itching, redness, rashes, hair loss, and ear infections. Allergens can vary and may include environmental factors (such as pollen or dust mites), certain foods, or even flea bites. Our veterinarians will help identify the allergen and offer solutions to manage the disease effectively.
- Parasite Control: Fleas, ticks, mites, and other parasites can wreak havoc on your pet's skin. Our veterinary team will provide effective parasite control measures to eliminate these pests and prevent further skin irritation or infections.
- Infections and Dermatitis Treatment: Bacterial, fungal, and yeast infections can cause severe discomfort for your pet. Our veterinarians are well-versed in treating these infections, prescribing appropriate medications, and providing guidance on proper hygiene and care to prevent recurrence.
- Chronic Skin Conditions: Some pets may suffer from chronic skin conditions such as atopic dermatitis or autoimmune disorders. Our veterinary team can develop long-term management plans to alleviate symptoms and improve your pet's quality of life.
- Nutritional Counseling: Proper nutrition plays a crucial role in maintaining healthy skin and coat. Our team can provide guidance on the best diet for your pet's specific needs, ensuring they receive the necessary nutrients to support optimal skin health.
- Skin Cancer Screening: Early detection is key when it comes to skin cancer in pets. Our veterinarians can perform thorough screenings and, if necessary, recommend further diagnostic tests or treatment options.
