WHY A SPECIALIST?Within the past few decades, rapidly increasing amounts of new knowledge, instrumentation, diagnostic techniques and treatments in veterinary medicine have made it virtually impossible for a doctor to remain current, equipped, and competent to effectively treat all medical problems. Therefore, specialty board certifications have been approved by the American Veterinary Medical Association. Eligibility for specialty board certification is gained after graduation from a College of Veterinary Medicine, completion of several additional years of residency study in an area of specialty concentration, and the successful completion of oral and written examinations.
WHAT IS DERMATOLOGY?
The skin is actually a complete body system which functions either normally or abnormally. The skin system is also interrelated to other body systems, such as the immune system, the endocrine system, etc., and can often reflect dysfunction of one of these systems. The skin is the body system most intimately exposed to the environment. Therefore, the environment can have a great effect upon the health of the skin. Environmental causative agents for skin problems include parasites, food allergies, contact allergies, and inhalant allergens, all of which can cause extreme reactions in the skin.
MUST A PATIENT BE REFERRED?
Dr. Breen welcomes patients who choose to see him directly for a skin ailment; as well as, those referred to him by his professional colleagues.
