Specialised Care for Your Pet’s Skin & Ear Health

Skin and ear problems can cause persistent itching, irritation, discomfort, and changes in your pet’s coat. At Pet Palace Veterinary Clinic, veterinary dermatology focuses on identifying the underlying causes of skin and ear conditions and providing appropriate care for your pet.

Our approach considers your pet’s symptoms, physical condition, and medical history. When necessary, diagnostic testing can help determine the cause and guide a suitable treatment plan for your companion.

Comprehensive Dermatology Care for Your Pet

From allergies and infections to parasites and other skin conditions, our veterinary team can help investigate and manage your pet’s dermatological concerns.

Allergy Management

Allergies can cause itching, irritation, redness, and other uncomfortable skin reactions. Identifying possible triggers helps guide appropriate care.

Skin Infections

Bacterial, fungal, and other infections can affect your pet’s skin and cause irritation, discomfort, hair loss, or changes in the coat.

Parasite-Related Skin Conditions

Fleas, ticks, mites, and other parasites can cause significant itching and skin irritation and may require appropriate parasite control.

Autoimmune Skin Conditions

Hormonal Skin Conditions

Hormonal imbalances can sometimes contribute to changes in your pet’s skin and coat. Appropriate testing can help investigate potential underlying causes.

Skin Tumours & Abnormal Growths

Unusual lumps, growths, or changes in the skin may require veterinary examination and, when appropriate, further diagnostic investigation.

Skin & Ear Diagnostics

Diagnostic evaluation may include skin examination, skin scrapings, cultures, biopsies, blood work, or allergy testing depending on your pet’s condition.
