Pre-Surgical, Diagnostic and Routine Veterinary Lab Tests

Catch early problems with laboratory blood screening
Pets, particularly senior ones, should have screening blood work checked more frequently, since changes on blood work are often detectable before the pet shows severe symptoms of disease. If a pet is unexpectedly losing weight, drinking more water, urinating more frequently, experiencing chronic vomiting or diarrhea, or even just laying around more they may be trying to tell you something is wrong. After a thorough physical exam by the veterinarian, laboratory testing may be the next step.

Laboratory Screening is crucial in correctly diagnosing many illnesses
Our clinic offers ON-SITE blood work when urgent test results are needed. Fecal Testing and urinalyses can be run on-site or sent out as part of wellness screening panels. Other laboratory tests that are commonly used to diagnose skin and ear infections can be run on-site including microscopic ear-cytology and ear mite checks, skin scraping, and fungal cultures. These tests are crucial to obtaining the correct diagnosis and thus, prescribing the appropriate treatment. They are also used to confirm that treatment has been successful and that the infection or parasite problem has completely resolved.
