This book is very well organized into easy to locate categories and has many photo examples of dermpath, along with great verbal descriptions of diagnosis, treatments, and prognosis. Highly recommended for those in private practice who see the MANY derm cases the we do each day.
My Boxer had a skin condition develop. Some general vets provided varying theories. I was very frustrated that the attitude was so cavalier and passive. I began the hunt for a dermatologist and also found this reference. The book supported my concerns that I should be expecting some diagnostic tests. When I found a dermatologist, I brought the book. We went through a series of tests and isolated her condition. I prefer paying for tests over experimenting with drugs. The dermatologist confirmed that this is one of the texts used by many vet schools. After looking at various pictures and reading several conditions, I felt that I was better prepared to speak with vets and find someone to seriously address my Boxer's condition. So happy I found it.
This is the best derm book I've seen. The pictures are awesome. I usually take it right into the exam room to show owners and read them the text to help explain the condition. They often will say "That looks exactly like what my pet has!"
I am vet tech student interested in studying veterinary dermatology and this book was perfect for me. The photos in this book are of great quality and in addition, the chapters are very well organized and descriptive. I would reccommend this book to anyone interested in this branch of veterinary medicine. You may want to have a medical terminology dictionary on hand if you are a student just starting out...
This is a GREAT reference book! The differentials lists in the early chapters are really helpful and the book is easy to follow and use! I would highly recommend this book for students and to keep in your clinic after graduation!
I only purchased this book because I work in the pet industry and I always want to read up on whatever I can to learn everything I can (plus, I noticed that my vet had it in his office). This book provides great pictures and text. Any skin issue you can think of, is in here. I highly recommend.
I got this book on my dermatology rotation on the recommendation of the residents, and it really is one of my favorite books. My dermatology notes from classes were really disorganized, and didn't have enough pictures of various lesions. I found this book very helpful, as it has tons of color pictures and great explanations of treatment options. I think it will be very valuable in practice.
This book is a necessity at the clinic as it offers A LOT of color pictures and examples of cases. It's great for the practitioner that needs a quick reference tool and is a great teaching aid for your para staff. Offers quick read common presentations, examples, rule out lists, and treatment options.
