What to Expect

Welcome to North West Veterinary Dermatology Services Ltd.

We will work in partnership with your primary veterinarian to provide your pet with dermatological care.

Please fill out the pet registration and medical history forms.

Initial visits will begin with a discussion about the history of your pet’s skin condition. The more information you can provide the better, especially in allergy cases. This will be followed by a physical examination and initial diagnostic tests (impression smears, skin scraping etc).

We will discuss the long-term plan as well as recommended diagnostic testing. Estimates are provided upon request.

You will be provided with written discharge instructions after each visit. Rechecks, as recommended, will be necessary to stabilize your pet and set a long-term plan.

If you ever have questions about your pet’s dermatological care plan, we invite you to contact our practice. For non-dermatological matters (eg vaccines) you will be referred to your primary veterinarian.
