Skinvet Ireland – Vets in Midleton
Clinic Overview
- Many owners describe arriving after months or years of unresolved ear or skin problems, then seeing major improvement after one visit or a structured treatment plan. - Follow-up care stands out strongly, with repeated mentions of Kathryn and the team checking in regularly and staying involved after the appointment. - Reviews often highlight practical home routines that reduced flare-ups and cut down on daily cleaning, frequent medication or repeated vet visits.
Services
- •Dermatology-focused veterinary care for skin, ear, paw and claw problems, with many reviews centred on chronic ear infections, allergies, itchy skin, itchy paws and over-licking.
- •Diagnostic work and treatment planning for ongoing skin and ear issues. Reviews describe skin testing at a first visit, prompt diagnosis for itchy paw and ear problems, and one cat case where laser therapy was used for skin lesions linked to carcinoma in situ.
- •Longer treatment programmes where needed, including a review describing a 12-week plan for a cat with an infection linked to an open facial wound, alongside other cases where pets were managed through staged plans and regular reassessment.
- •Aftercare and follow-up support, with repeated mentions of vet-led check-ins, ongoing communication and clear advice for home management. Examples include moving from daily ear cleaning to once- or twice-weekly treatment, and simpler routines that owners say reduced flare-ups and replaced more frequent injections or repeat medications.
Pricing
A very limited amount of published pricing suggests the clinic may sit above average, but this is based on very few comparable services. Reviews on cost are mixed: one owner described the first visit as expensive but worth it, while another said the pricing felt very fair.
