In-House Testing for Faster Answers

We believe timely diagnostics are essential in veterinary medicine, and our on-site capabilities enable quick answers to almost any pet health question. With lab results often available during your appointment, we can make fast, informed decisions about your pet’s care.

Our Lab Testing Services Include:

  • Bloodwork (CBC, chemistry panel, thyroid levels, and more)
  • Urinalysis to check kidney health and detect infections
  • Fecal exams to identify intestinal parasites
  • Cytology to evaluate lumps, skin conditions, or ear infections
  • Pre-anesthetic screening for surgical safety
  • Wellness screening for senior pets or routine checkups

Why Lab Testing Matters

Lab work is one of the most powerful tools in preventive and diagnostic veterinary care. It allows us to detect hidden issues before they show outward signs, which is especially important for senior pets or those with chronic conditions. As problems like kidney disease, diabetes, infections, or organ dysfunction can go unnoticed until they’re more difficult to treat, proactive testing and discovering potential issues early can make a big difference in your pet’s overall health.
