Estimated time for completion of service

The Dermatology/Allergy clinic is an out-patient service, but clients should plan to spend at least 4 hours at the clinic with their pet. Many laboratory tests require several days to 2 weeks for results to be reported.

Requirements

Referral by the family veterinarian.

Pricing information

Initial office visit: $95. All services and diagnostic procedures entail additional cost, and will be discussed at the time of examination with financial estimates provided.

Appointment / Referral information

Referral by the family veterinarian required. Appointments made exclusively by the VHUP appointment secretaries. Since a doctor/client/patient relationship is required prior to making recommendations on diagnosis or treatment, consultation directly with pet owners is not provided until the pet has been examined by one of the dermatology staff doctors.
