Advanced Pet Dermatology in Queens – Skin and Allergy Care for Cats and Dogs

Animal Dermatology Is More Than Just Skin-Deep

We often forget how important skin health is for our pets — yet the skin is their largest organ and the first barrier against infection. At Queens Animal Hospital in Rego Park, we recognize that skin diseases are one of the most common and distressing health problems in pets.

Whether your pet is scratching constantly, has rashes, ear infections, hair loss, or strange skin lesions, we are here to help. Our veterinary dermatology services are designed to diagnose and treat everything from common allergies to complex autoimmune and endocrine skin conditions.

Cutting-Edge Diagnosis and Treatment for Skin Diseases

The field of veterinary dermatology is constantly evolving. We stay up to date with global best practices, advanced diagnostics, and innovative therapies — so your pet can get fast relief and long-term results.

At our Queens vet clinic, we offer a full range of dermatological testing, including:

  • Allergy testing (intradermal or blood-based)
  • Allergen-specific immunotherapy (ASIT, SLIT)
  • Ear and skin cytology
  • Skin scrapings (superficial and deep)
  • Fungal and bacterial cultures
  • Biopsies for histopathology
  • Fine needle aspirates
  • Trichograms (hair analysis)
  • Blood tests for hormonal or autoimmune disease
  • Advanced imaging (X-rays, CT, MRI as needed)
  • Dietary trials

Once the cause is identified, we’ll recommend the best approach — which may include medications, medicated baths, dietary adjustments, topical treatments, or long-term allergy management.

Common Skin Conditions We Treat

Skin problems can be caused by allergies, infections, hormonal imbalances, parasites, or even genetic factors. Our board-certified veterinarians are trained to recognize the full range of dermatologic diseases in pets, including:

  • Flea allergy dermatitis
  • Atopic dermatitis (environmental allergies)
  • Ear infections (otitis externa/media)
  • Food allergies
  • Hot spots (acute moist dermatitis)
  • Bacterial or fungal skin infections (e.g., ringworm)
  • Parasites: mites, fleas, lice
  • Autoimmune skin diseases
  • Hair loss (alopecia)
  • Hormonal skin conditions (thyroid, adrenal issues)
  • Pododermatitis (paw inflammation)
  • Adverse drug reactions
  • Nail and footpad disorders
  • Skin tumors and neoplastic diseases

Even if your pet has suffered from chronic skin issues for months or years, there is hope — with proper diagnosis, consistent care, and expert guidance.

We Care for Pets — and Their People

Our goal is not only to treat the symptoms but to work closely with you as the pet owner to develop the most effective, affordable, and manageable plan for your pet’s skin health. Education and empathy are essential parts of our work.
