Pet Dermatology & Allergy Care
Diagnosing Pet Allergies and Skin Conditions
Our experienced team works to identify the root causes of your pet’s skin problems, which may include:
- Environmental allergies (pollen, mold, dust mites)
- Food sensitivities
- Flea allergy dermatitis
- Skin infections (bacterial or fungal)
- Hot spots, rashes, or ear infections
We begin with a thorough exam and medical history, and may recommend skin cytology, cultures, allergy testing, or dietary trials to pinpoint the issue.
