Dermatology
At Frankford Animal Clinic, we understand that skin conditions can significantly impact the well-being of your beloved pets. Our experienced veterinary team is dedicated to providing comprehensive dermatology services to address various skin issues and restore your pet’s comfort.
Pets can develop dermatological problems, including allergies, infections, parasites, autoimmune diseases, etc. Identifying the underlying cause of these conditions and providing effective treatment requires specialized knowledge and expertise, which you can expect from Frankford Animal Clinic.
Here’s what you can expect from our Dermatology Services:
Expert Diagnosis
We will thoroughly examine your pet’s skin and coat, evaluating visible symptoms such as redness, itching, rashes, or hair loss. We also utilize advanced diagnostic techniques, such as skin scrapings, cytology, allergy testing, and biopsies, to accurately identify the cause of your pet’s skin condition.
Allergy Testing
If your pet suffers from allergic skin reactions, we offer comprehensive allergy testing to determine the specific allergens triggering their symptoms. This knowledge allows us to create a customized treatment plan tailored to your pet’s needs, including allergen avoidance strategies and medical management.
Skin Infection Treatment
We provide effective treatment for bacterial, fungal, and parasitic skin infections. Our veterinarians will prescribe appropriate medications, such as antibiotics or antifungal agents, to eliminate the underlying infection and promote healing.
Autoimmune Disease Management
Autoimmune diseases can affect your pet’s skin and cause chronic inflammation. Our dermatology team is experienced in diagnosing and managing autoimmune conditions, offering treatments such as immunosuppressive therapy to help control symptoms and improve your pet’s quality of life.
Parasite Control
External parasites like fleas, ticks, and mites can cause severe skin irritation and discomfort for your pet. We offer comprehensive parasite control solutions to eliminate these pests and prevent future infestations. Our team will recommend the most effective and safe parasite prevention methods for your pet’s needs.
Ongoing Skin Care Support
Our commitment to your pet’s skin health extends beyond diagnosis and treatment. We will provide comprehensive guidance on at-home care, including bathing techniques, grooming recommendations, and environmental management, to help maintain your pet’s skin health between visits.
At Frankford Animal Clinic, we understand that each pet is unique, and their dermatological needs may vary. Our compassionate team will work closely with you to develop a personalized treatment plan that addresses your pet’s condition and improves their overall well-being.
