GVC is pleased to host Dr. Budgin of Hudson Valley Veterinary Dermatology twice weekly to meet the needs of our clients and patients.
Founder and owner of Hudson Valley Veterinary Dermatology, Thornwood, NY.
She trained at Iowa State University and was awarded a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree in 1999. After two years in private practice, she went on to complete her internship in small animal medicine and surgery, post doctorate fellowship in immunodermatology, and residency training in dermatology at the University of Pennsylvania. She achieved diplomat status with the American College of Veterinary Dermatology in 2005.
As a self-proclaimed “cat lady,” Dr. Budgin has a keen interest in feline dermatology, however she is also a “true dog lover” at heart. Her additional areas of interest include diet and nutrition in the management of allergic skin disease, treatment of drug resistant infections, and immune-mediated skin diseases. Dr. Budgin has published articles pertaining to veterinary dermatology in various journals and has presented at conferences throughout the world.
Dr. Budgin is the former treasurer, vice president, and president of the American Academy of Veterinary Dermatology (AAVD). She is also one of the first members and has served on the organizing committee of the North American Veterinary Dermatology Forum for ten years. Dr. Budgin serves as the AAVD representative to the World Association of Veterinary Dermatology (WAVD) and contributes to the education committee of both the WAVD and the World Small Animal Veterinary Association (WSAVA).
Additional appointments include director-at-large of the American College of Veterinary Dermatology (ACVD) and avid reviewer of the ACVD’s official journal, Veterinary Dermatology.
Finally, and very passionately, Dr. Budgin is co-coordinator of the Global Veterinary Dermatology Education Group, an independent international organization that supports, educates, and empowers veterinarians in underserved areas of the world with an interest in dermatology to lead local ongoing efforts in training and advancement.
Dr. Budgin lives in northern Manhattan with her orange tabby, Pema. Her hobbies include cooking, yoga, photography, and spending time outdoors.
