Celebrating 30 Amazing Years

30 years strong because of an amazing foundation

Dermatology for Animals

Dermatology Clinics for Animals was started in 1991 by Dr. Tom Lewis and consisted of 3 part-time locations between Phoenix and Tucson AZ and Albuquerque NM. Due to a very limited number of practicing board certified dermatologist, practice locations were expanded over several years into Salt Lake City UT, Omaha NE and El Paso Texas. By 2001 Dr Lewis was unable to adequately service all locations and Dr. Kimberly Coyner joined the practice, which then started training residents. The first two residents were Drs Ed Jazic and Anthea Schick whom, along with Dr. Rose Miller eventually became co-founders of Dermatology for Animals (D4A). Under their guidance D4A has expanded into 10 states and successfully trained 15 residents who have become Diplomates of the American College of Veterinary Dermatology. The wonderfully skilled and compassionate staff of D4A has truly improved the lives of hundreds of thousands of dogs, cats and horses suffering with skin disorders.

What is the VNTE test?

Veterinary Technician National Exam

Most state and provincial agencies use the Veterinary Technician National Exam (VTNE®) to evaluate the competency of entry-level veterinary technicians and require a passing score for a veterinary technician to be credentialed.

Different states have different names for their licensed veterinary technicians - CVT (Certified Veterinary Technician), LVT (Licensed Veterinary Technician) and RVT (Registered Veterinary Technician).

Currently there is a group working on getting the name regulated Nationwide.

Specialty is so exciting. Nicole and Becca from our Akron, Ohio office. They both have their VTS in Vet Dermatology.

They both have their VTS in Vet Dermatology. We are so proud of their success.
