At Fox Creek Veterinary Hospital in Kirkwood, MO, we provide thorough care to help pets with skin problems and allergies. Our team focuses on finding the cause of your pet’s discomfort and creating a plan to help them heal and feel better.
Skin Checks
Our vets carefully examine your pet’s skin and coat to look for rashes, lumps, or signs of infection. We may use tools like skin scrapings or small samples (biopsies) to better understand what’s going on.
Allergy Testing
If we think your pet might have allergies, we offer blood testing to check for triggers like pollen or dust. We can also help with food trials to see if certain ingredients are causing problems.
Personalized Treatment Plans
Once we know what’s causing your pet’s symptoms, we’ll create a care plan just for them. This might include medicine like antihistamines, Apoquel, or Cytopoint, as well as creams, food changes, or allergy shots.
