This website serves multiple purposes:

Its primary purpose is to serve as an educational website for pet owners to find information on skin and ear disorders of dogs and cats.

Also, it allows people whose pets are current patients of Dr. Byrne and also people who are interested in having their pets examined by Dr. Byrne to contact us.

Education of pet owners on aspects of ear disease (including otitis), allergic skin disease, and skin infections is the primary focus of the information presented. There is also information on less common skin disorders such as autoimmune skin disease, nutritional skin disease, and skin cancer.

If your pet is currently my patient, I will respond to email about your pet in a timely fashion. My practice keeps me very busy and unfortunately I rarely have time to return email regarding pets that are not patients.

Thank you for trusting me with your pet’s care.

If you have a suggestion for this website, please send it to me in an email.
