  Laboratory Testing

 There is a powerful instinct in all animals to "act normal" even in the face of serous illness. Thus a complete physical exam is often not enough to diagnose the problem. In addition to imaging modalities, our hospital is equipped with an extensive in-house laboratory that permits us to find abnormalities in your pet’s organ functions or blood cells that were not evident from the physical evaluation  We utilize our in-house laboratory when time is of the essence in the case of a serious illness. For an ill patient, hours or even minutes can make the difference of life and death. When time is not a factor such as for routine follow-up bloodwork to follow up on existing illness or senior screening tests, we  send your pet's blood work to a national laboratory which  is a much more cost effective option for our clients
