Scarlett Dog Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 Has any come across a good dermatologist &/or allergy specialist in Brisbane? Scarlett came up in a rash after she was desexed. The vet initially said it was a minor skin infection from 'puppy pimples' (probably from the stress of the surgery) that would clear itself up. Since then (about a fortnight) she's come up in more bumps. Being a bull terrier I suspect it's an allergy, just not sure if it's something she's come in contact with or food related. We're keen to find out what the cause is. Any recommendations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scarlett Dog Posted March 5, 2011 Author Share Posted March 5, 2011 great. I had someone mention a lady at Many vets too. It seems there is a long waiting list for her Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rottifan Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 Charissa Smith is good for alterative ideas if you want a different scope on things - operates from her home far west of Brisbane or Greencross Vets at Inala on certain days. Has a website if you google her to check that out too. She refers to Vet Specialist Services on the south side who I rate very highly compared to specialist centre experiences on the north side and was happy to travel to see her to get a referral to the south side specialists regardless of travelling a lot further!

ShesaLikeableBiBear Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 Am not so sure about Stitch's recommendation. In 2009 Panda was showing some symptoms of hypothyroidism - rusty brown tone to his skin, lethargic, weight gain, loss of coat. He was mis-diagnosed with NO blood tests done to check T4 levels. As a specialist I would have thought that the person would have picked this up?. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
