When Your Pet Has Skin Issues
When you bring your pet to our office for a wellness visit, you can count on us for a comprehensive head-to-toe examination. During the exam, our veterinarian may discover that your pet has skin problems. In addition to the discomfort that sores or rashes may cause, pet skin problems can signal a more serious medical issue. If your pet’s skin problem requires additional care from a specialist, our vet may refer you to a veterinary dermatologist.
Does Your Pet Need a Dermatologist?
A pet dermatologist is a veterinary specialist who focuses on caring for pets’ skin, fur, hooves, and ears. While many rashes are due to pet allergies and are typically managed by a general vet, if the itching interferes with your pet’s quality of life, it may be best for a pet dermatologist to see your pet. Treatment for pet allergies may begin with oral medication but could require more intensive interventions.
Meet Our Veterinarian
Our team is led by Dr. Bruce Bogoslavsky, who began his veterinary practice with pets of all sizes in 1988. He brings a wealth of knowledge to the pets of our area. If your pet has any issues related to dermatology in Orlando, Dr. Bruce will do everything he can for your pet before referring them to a specialist. For example, some pet allergies are caused by food, cleaning products, or outdoor plants; if the source of an allergy can be identified, its elimination could resolve your pet’s rash.
