Firstly I must thank all the Veterinary Surgeons, Veterinary Nurses, Receptionists, Company Representatives, friends and relatives who have supported and recommended my Dermatology service throughout the last 25 years or more.
Special thanks to Dr Ian Mason, BVetMed PhD CertSAD MRCVS, for his help, support and tuition as my mentor during and after studying for my post-graduate Certificate in Veterinary Dermatology.
Thank you also to Dr Thierry Olivry DrVet PhD DipECVD DipACVD and his team, at North Carolina State, for the immunohistochemistry photomicrograph (epidermolysis bullosa acquisita, indirect immunofluorescence), Mr Malcolm Silkstone BVSc DipACVP MRCVS for the Leishmania H&E photomicrographs, Dr Richard Fox BVetMed DipECVP MRCVS for the Periodic-Acid Schiff & Grocott’s Silver Stain photomicrographs of the rare Candida pododermatitis and Dr Brendan Ruban BVSc BSc MRCVS for allowing me to precis his raw diet feeding advice sheet.
An additional big thank you must go to Dr Henry Jubb BVM&S MRCVS, formerly the principal of Beech House Vets, Brighton, for the kind long-term loan of his wonderful Leica microscope.
Lastly thanks to my father Professor David Walker BVSc FIBiol FRCVS for his histopathology tuition and opinion on many biopsied cases.
The photographs throughout this site are from cases I have treated (charliewalker@thephotovet.net). The majority are taken during my consultations and further investigations but I must also thank the Clients and Vets who have sent some of the images before, during and after referrals, as well from E-consultations.
