Veterinary Dermatology – CENTREDMVET

Veterinary dermatology is a specialty dedicated to the diagnosis and treatment of skin, hair, ear and claw disorders in animals. These conditions can be caused by a variety of illnesses, including parasitic infestations, allergies, hormonal imbalances and autoimmune diseases.

At CENTREDMVET, our dermatology team, composed of Dr. Caroline de Jaham, Dr. Nadia Pagé, and Dr. Camylle Bergero, work in collaboration with their technician, Valérie Fleury, to offer advanced care tailored to each patient.

Why consult a veterinary dermatologist?

Your pet may benefit from the expertise of a dermatologist if you observe the following symptoms:

  • Excessive scratching or licking: repeated itching, biting or rubbing.
  • Significant hair loss or bald patches.
  • Skin abnormalities: scabs, dandruff, changes in skin color or texture.
  • Ear problems: Frequent shaking of the head, unpleasant odors or abnormal discharge from the ears.

Although dermatological diseases are rarely fatal, they can seriously affect your companion’s quality of life.

Our dermatologists use state-of-the-art techniques to diagnose and treat skin disorders:

  1. Intradermal allergy testing: Detection of specific allergies for personalized treatment.

  7. Video otoscopic examination: In-depth visualization of the ear canals.
