Allergy Testing & Dermatology

At Smithfield Central Vets, we provide comprehensive dermatology and allergy testing services to identify the underlying cause of your pet’s discomfort and create an effective, long‑term treatment plan.

From persistent itching and ear infections to hair loss, rashes, and food sensitivities, our team is equipped to diagnose and manage a wide range of dermatological conditions. We focus on finding the root cause rather than just treating symptoms, ensuring your pet gets lasting relief.

Our dermatology and allergy services include:

• Allergy Testing – including environmental and food-related sensitivities, helping pinpoint triggers that may be affecting your pet’s skin or overall health.

• Skin & Ear Examinations – thorough assessments to diagnose infections, parasites, inflammation, and chronic conditions.

• Cytology & Microscopic Analysis – on-site evaluation of skin and ear samples to identify bacteria, yeast, mites, and inflammatory cells.

• Parasite Detection & Treatment – targeted solutions for fleas, mites, and other external parasites that commonly cause skin irritation.

• Long-Term Management Plans – personalised treatment strategies that may include medication, diet changes, topical therapies, or immunotherapy depending on your pet’s needs.

With a careful, compassionate approach and access to advanced diagnostic tools, we help your pet feel comfortable in their skin again so they can get back to living a happy, itch‑free life.
