We understand the crucial role that timely and accurate laboratory testing plays in diagnosing and treating your pets. As part of our commitment to providing comprehensive veterinary care, we offer advanced in-house laboratory services that enable us to quickly assess your pet’s health and respond with the most effective treatment options.

Advantages of In-House Laboratory Services

Rapid Results

Our in-house lab allows us to perform a variety of tests with results available in a short amount of time, often during the same visit. This quick turnaround is vital for acute medical situations and ongoing condition monitoring.

Comprehensive Testing Capabilities

We can conduct a wide range of diagnostic tests, including blood tests, urinalysis, fecal exams, and more, right in our own facility.

Quality Control

By managing the testing process on-site, we maintain high standards of quality control, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the test results.

Types of Tests Performed

Blood Work

Comprehensive blood panels can evaluate organ function, detect infections, and identify blood disorders.

Urinalysis

Essential for assessing kidney and urinary tract health, and for diagnosing certain metabolic diseases like diabetes.

Fecal Exams

Critical for detecting parasites and gastrointestinal issues that can affect your pet's health and comfort.

Specialized Testing

For more complex diagnoses, some tests may be sent to external specialized labs to ensure comprehensive coverage and expert analysis.
