Overall everyone I spoke to was lovely. They seemed to be very knowledgable and I was very relieved to get their diagnosis for my dog. However, I did not realize the cost and I can never afford to go here again. If you get paid by hour this place is probably not for you unforunately.

We brought our dog in for skin issues a few months ago. The vet had very poor “bedside manner” (very curt, asked the exact same questions multiple times, made a comment about “not wanting anymore of his blood line” in the world). The vet tech gave our dog a treat without asking our permission - after we had him on very strict diet for over a month and gaslit me about the situation, and finally they tried to charge us 4x what our regular vet would charge for a biopsy. They did zero check-ins after the appointment. And gave us really no news we didn’t already know during our approximately $500+ appointment. Id recommend google over going back this office, honestly.

This has been the most awesome experience! My Pretty Girl has been struggling with her skin for a couple of years didn’t even know dermatologists existed for pets but I’m glad my veterinarian recommended her to see Dr Irwin best decision I can 100% say was the best. Thank u to the staff and to all for their support and patience with explaining everything with kindness.

This is my opinion and experience with Dermatology for Animals- Omaha. We are extremely disappointed in our visit. (A little background we've had our puppy since the December 19 and saw the specialist Jan 6th. When we rescued our puppy he's covered in a fungal infection, hair loss flakey/itchy skin and treated for mites. So itchy he was gnawing off his own feet) We drove two hours paid $442 for a specialist to refuse any skin scrapping. All she did was diagnosis our 8 week old puppy with a double ear infection, and suggest we put an 8 week old puppy on a plant based elimination diet. We haven't even had the puppy one month to have any suspicion on what yet needs to be eliminated from his diet given how malnourished he was. The vet also couldn't tell us what kind of fungal infection our baby has. When I originally scheduled the appointment I was told that, included in the first $450 office visit was a skin scrapping and bloodwork (this info is also on the website) but once arrived was told that because the pup had no active lesions and was already given one does of Nexguard she would "save us money" by not skin scrapping. We paid $442 for a specialist to diagnosis an ear infection and not do any dermatology testing we were promised. We learned more about dermatology from our local veterinarian. With an 8 week old puppy a dermatologist should have been as proactive as possible. That should be the goal for any animal that walks through those doors. This was the most basic, disappointing vet care we've received from any veterinarian let alone a specialist. I did speak with the office manage who was very lovely but after reading other reviews. I'm getting the impression that this is pretty routine care from this establishment which is sad because the office staff originally seemed wonderful. Please save your money and find a good local vet. (We expected to see Dr. Irwin given her reviews and the website but unannounced to us or appointment was scheduled with Dr. Wheatcraft) honestly given the basic care he received I'd like a full refund for everything but his ear treatment given how misleading the care was. We're extremely disappointed (update) I was contacted by the company they asked if I would delete my review without offering any compensation to do so, all the veterinarian did they we say was treat an ear infection. Does your dermatologist treat your ears? Still extremely disappointed and highly recommend you find a good local vet, this was a complete waste of time and money)
