We have an in-house laboratory where we are able to obtain most results within minutes. For special laboratory testing we use an external reference lab with results returned usually within 24-48 hrs.

 

In-house tests include:

• Preoperative profiles

• Wellness profiles

• Urinalysis/Sediment

• Tests for Tick Borne Diseases, Heartworm, FeLV/FIV, pancreatitis

• Parasite testing

• Ear/skin disease testing

​

Our DR digital x-ray machine can produce images within seconds and we have the ability to send out radiographs electronically to board certified radiologists for second opinions on x-rays if needed. The images are also stored in the pet’s record and can be emailed to specialists or for emergency needs. 

 

Routine Diagnostics:

 

Our pets cannot tell us how they are feeling, so we have to rely on other methods of detecting disease. Since many pets do not show signs of illness until their disease may be difficult or impossible to treat, detecting disease early is of utmost importance.
