Dermatology

Dermatology

c fluid

Skin problems are prevalent in both dogs and cats and can stem from various factors, including hormonal disorders, allergies, infections, or infestations by parasites such as fleas and mites. These conditions can lead to significant discomfort for your pet and may worsen if not treated promptly.

At Middle Sackville Veterinary Care Centre, we take a thorough approach to diagnosing dermatological issues.

In many cases, our veterinarians can identify the cause of your pet's skin problem through a detailed physical examination. However, some dermatological diseases may require further diagnostic procedures to ensure an accurate diagnosis.

Based on your pet’s symptoms and our physical findings, we may recommend additional tests such as blood work to assess for underlying hormonal disorders or infections, urinalysis to evaluate your pet's overall health and check for potential systemic issues, skin scraping to detect the presence of parasites that may be causing skin irritation and biopsies to obtain tissue samples for further examination when necessary, aiding in the diagnosis of more complex skin conditions.
