Common Conditions We Treat
Skin problems are one of the most frequent reasons pets visit the vet. Our team identifies the cause and creates a treatment plan tailored to your pet.
- Environmental allergies (pollen, dust mites, mold)
- Food allergies and sensitivities
- Flea allergy dermatitis
- Hot spots and pyoderma (bacterial skin infections)
- Ear infections linked to allergies
- Ringworm and fungal conditions
- Mange (sarcoptic and demodectic)
- Autoimmune skin disorders
Diagnosis & Testing
Accurate diagnosis comes before effective treatment. We use physical exam, skin cytology, skin scrapings, fungal cultures, and dietary trials to identify the root cause of your pet's condition.
If your pet is scratching, licking their paws, or losing fur — early diagnosis prevents secondary infections and leads to faster, more lasting relief.
Treatment Options
Once we identify the cause, we build a treatment plan that may include:
- Prescription medications (Apoquel, Cytopoint, antihistamines, steroids)
- Medicated shampoos and topical treatments
- Dietary changes for food allergy management
- Comprehensive parasite control
- Referral to a veterinary dermatology specialist when needed
