Pet allergies can be triggered by a variety of environmental allergens such as pollen, mold, dust mites, and even specific ingredients in foods. Like in humans, allergies in pets can cause a range of symptoms from dermatological issues to respiratory complications.

To identify the underlying cause of your pet’s allergic reactions, the Pet Health team employs a detailed and personalized approach to diagnostics, which includes:

• Dermatological Allergy Testing: A non-invasive method to detect specific allergens affecting your pet, involving skin tests with small amounts of allergens.
• Blood Tests: To identify the presence of antibodies against specific allergens and help define an appropriate treatment.
• Dietary Evaluation: Controlled changes in diet to identify food allergens.

Each of these tests is discussed and decided upon together with owners to ensure understanding and comfort with the proposed diagnostic plan.

Using advanced diagnostic tools, we can gain a clear understanding of what is causing your pet’s allergies, allowing for:

• More effective and personalized treatment.
• Avoidance of unnecessary tests and procedures.
• Quicker and more efficient reduction of allergic symptoms.
