Clinician's Brief: The Podcast

In this episode, host Alyssa Watson, DVM, is joined by Amelia G. White, DVM, MS, DACVD to talk about her recent Clinician’s Brief article, “Lick Granulomas.” Dr. White uses a case-based approach to explain how identifying and controlling the underlying trigger, rather than just managing the lesion itself, is central to lasting resolution. Topics include culture and biopsy methodology, antimicrobial management, barrier protection, fluorescent light therapy, and the role of behavioral medications in treatment planning.
