Eau Gallie Veterinary Hospital provides comprehensive pet dermatology in Melbourne, FL, offering advanced diagnosis and treatment options to relieve itching, irritation, and skin disease in your pet.
What Is Pet Dermatology?
Pet dermatology focuses on diagnosing and managing skin, coat, ear, and nail conditions in pets. Skin disorders can arise from allergies, infections, parasites, autoimmune diseases, or hormonal imbalances, and often require specialized testing to identify the root cause.
Our dermatology services begin with a thorough examination and diagnostic testing, including skin scrapings, cytology, allergy testing, and biopsies when needed. Once we understand the underlying condition, we tailor a treatment plan that may include medications, topical therapies, diet changes, or allergy management to provide your pet with lasting relief.

- Constant scratching, licking, or chewing
- Hair loss or bald patches
- Red, inflamed, or irritated skin
- Recurrent ear infections
- Scaly or flaky skin
