About Your Pet’s Dermatology Visit
At your pet’s dermatology exam here in Greenland, we’ll ask you a series of questions to begin the diagnostic process, one of which will involve your pet’s specific symptoms. We may recommend advanced diagnostics, including food allergy trials, a skin culture, or skin cytology to determine the source of your pet’s condition. Once an official diagnosis is made, and the source of your pet’s condition is found, we can develop a treatment plan.
