In-House Diagnostic Testing for Pets
Our on-site laboratory allows us to perform many diagnostic tests during your pet’s visit—so you won’t have to wait days for answers. This is especially helpful when your pet is sick, injured, or in need of pre-anesthetic testing before surgery.
Our in-house diagnostics include:
-
Complete blood count (CBC)
-
Chemistry panels to assess organ function
-
Urinalysis for urinary and kidney health
-
Fecal exams to check for intestinal parasites
-
Heart worm tests
-
Tick-borne illness testing
-
Feline leukemia/FIV testing
-
Thyroid testing
Because these results are available within minutes, we can start treatment sooner and tailor your pet’s care plan right away.
Digital X-Rays for a Clear Picture of Your Pet’s Health
Our digital radiography system allows us to take high-quality X-rays with less stress and faster results. Digital X-rays help us evaluate your pet’s bones, joints, lungs, heart, and abdomen in real-time—so we can spot injuries, masses, and abnormalities quickly and comfortably.
Common reasons we recommend X-rays include:
- Limping or lameness
- Coughing or breathing issues
- Vomiting or diarrhea
- Suspected fractures or trauma
- Monitoring chronic conditions like arthritis or heart disease
Because digital X-rays produce less radiation and can be viewed instantly, they’re safer for your pet and more efficient for your care team.
