Animal Dermatology Clinic Perth

Animal Dermatology Clinic (ADC) is a specialist veterinary dermatology and ear clinic in Perth, dedicated to helping animals live happier, more comfortable lives. Our team has more than 30 years of experience in veterinary dermatology, combining specialist expertise with modern technology to investigate, diagnose and manage complex skin, ear and allergy conditions.

We welcome complicated and challenging cases. Many of our patients come to us after a long journey trying to find answers, sometimes after months or years of recurring problems. Getting to the bottom of persistent skin, ear and allergy conditions isn’t always straightforward, and our team works to understand what is causing the problem and develop an individual treatment and management plan for each patient.

Our Murdoch clinic is a purpose-built veterinary dermatology clinic designed specifically around the needs of our patients and their dermatological care. We operate independently from The Animal Hospital at Murdoch University while maintaining a close working relationship with the University and its veterinary specialists. We also consult from Vet24 in Balcatta, giving our dermatology team access to additional specialist services including internal medicine, anaesthesia, surgery, oncology, diagnostic imaging and critical care when required.

Our clinical work includes allergy profiling and immunotherapy, video otoscopy, biopsy and histopathology and CO₂ laser surgery. Our wider team brings together veterinary dermatology specialists, hospital veterinarians, veterinary technicians, veterinary nurses and client services staff, with experience spanning general practice, emergency and critical care and a number of referral disciplines.

Learning never stops at ADC. Education is important across our entire clinic, from our veterinary dermatologists and hospital veterinarians to our veterinary nurses. Our team continually develops its knowledge and skills to keep up with advances in veterinary dermatology and patient care, while our specialists are actively involved in teaching, research and continuing education within the veterinary profession.

We also know that veterinary visits can be stressful for pets and their people. Our entire team is Fear Free Certified, and we take the time to recognise and reduce fear, anxiety and stress in our patients. Patience, warmth and compassion are an important part of how we work, and creating positive experiences for our patients matters to us. In fact, many of our patients actually like coming to see us, which is one of our favourite compliments.

For veterinary professionals who enjoy learning, solving difficult problems and becoming genuinely skilled in a specialised area of veterinary medicine, ADC offers the opportunity to work with an experienced team that welcomes challenging cases and never stops learning.
