Dermatology is the branch of medicine that deals with the diagnosis and treatment of skin diseases. Dermatological conditions are one of the most common problems that your pet may experience.
Why should I bring my pet to a dermatology exam?
A veterinary dermatologist is highly experienced in diagnosing and treating many different conditions affecting the skin, ears and nails. Such conditions are usually caused by a variety of microorganisms, allergens in the environment or food. Apart from causing itchiness and discomfort, skin conditions could be indicative of other serious internal diseases.

When should I think about bringing my pet for a dermatology exam?
If you are concerned about your pet’s quality of life or if some condition does not respond to general treatment you might need to visit a dermatologist.
The general signs that there might be an issue are: loss of fur, redness of the skin, bad odor, itchiness and frequent shaking of the head and ears.

The treatment or management of a dermatological problem will vary, but our veterinarians will work with you to develop a treatment plan that is best suited to your pet’s specific needs. Keep in mind that sometimes treatment can take a long time and requires regular care on behalf of the owners.
