Colleen Mendelsohn

DVM, Diplomate ACVD

Dr. Colleen Mendelsohn is a 1997 graduate of UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine and received Diplomate status with the American College of Veterinary Dermatology in 2004. After graduation from UC Davis, Dr. Mendelsohn completed an internship with the Animal Emergency Clinic and Animal Specialty Group in San Diego. She later practiced general medicine before starting her residency with the Animal Dermatology Clinic in 2000. Prior to starting the residency, Dr. Mendelsohn had a considerable amount of experience in Dermatology, obtained both before and after her graduation from UC Davis. Her love and appreciation of the human-animal bond is what drew Dr. Mendelsohn to this specialty. In her words, "The conditions we treat often require good long term relationships with patients and owners, which gives me the opportunity to be part of that special relationship that develops between humans and pets". She lives with her husband Sam, daughter Jordan and son Adam, along with many critters!
