Common Skin Conditions We Treat

Skin issues are among the most common reasons pet owners seek veterinary care. Dr. Mahlberg has experience diagnosing and treating a wide range of dermatological concerns in both cats and dogs, including:

  • Allergies (environmental, food-related, flea sensitivity, or contact)
  • Hot spots and chronic itching
  • Ear infections
  • Hair loss and skin infections
  • Flea allergy dermatitis
  • Fungal and bacterial skin conditions
  • Skin lumps, bumps, and rashes

We’ll work with you to uncover the cause of your pet’s discomfort and develop a treatment plan tailored to their needs.

Our Diagnostic & Treatment Process

During your in-home dermatology visit, we’ll begin with a comprehensive skin and coat evaluation, as well as a review of your pet’s medical history and current symptoms. If needed, we may perform:

  • Skin scrapings
  • Cytology (skin or ear)
  • Fungal and skin cultures

Once we identify the source of the issue, we’ll recommend the most effective treatment — whether it’s medicated shampoos, prescription medications, supplements, or lifestyle changes.

Low-Stress, High-Compassionate Care

Our mobile veterinary model is especially helpful for pets who don’t travel well in the car, experience anxiety at the veterinary office, or for pet owners who are unable to bring their animals to a hospital. We come to you, so your pet stays relaxed and comfortable throughout the exam and treatment process. And because appointments are never rushed, you’ll have time to ask questions and feel confident in the care plan.
