Geriatric Panels

Geriatric panels are comprehensive diagnostic tests designed for older pets to assess their overall health and identify age-related issues. These panels include blood tests and other evaluations to monitor vital organ function, detect underlying conditions, and ensure early intervention. Regular geriatric panels help us provide tailored care, manage chronic conditions, and enhance the quality of life for senior pets.

Radiology

Radiology involves using X-rays and imaging techniques to visualize the internal structures of your pet’s body. This diagnostic tool helps us identify fractures, tumors, and other abnormalities within bones, organs, and tissues. Radiology provides essential insights for accurate diagnosis and effective treatment planning, supporting comprehensive care for your pet’s health concerns.

Ultrasonography

Ultrasonography uses sound waves to create detailed images of your pet’s internal organs and tissues. This non-invasive diagnostic tool helps us evaluate conditions such as tumors, organ abnormalities, and fluid accumulations. By providing real-time insights, ultrasonography aids in accurate diagnosis and effective treatment planning, ensuring comprehensive care for your pet.

CBC (Complete Blood Count)

A CBC (Complete Blood Count) provides a comprehensive overview of your pet’s overall health by measuring various components of their blood, including red and white blood cells and platelets. This test helps diagnose conditions such as anemia, infections, and blood disorders. By analyzing these key metrics, we can develop effective treatment plans and monitor your pet’s health more accurately.

Urinalysis

Urinalysis involves analyzing a sample of your pet’s urine to evaluate their urinary health and detect potential issues. This test provides insights into kidney function, the presence of infections, and abnormalities such as glucose or protein levels. By assessing these factors, we can diagnose and manage conditions like urinary tract infections and diabetes, ensuring appropriate treatment and care.

Microscopic evaluation of Ear Mites/ Ear Cytology

Microscopic evaluation of ear mites and ear cytology involves examining ear samples under a microscope to diagnose ear infections, mites, and other ear conditions. This process helps us identify the specific cause of ear issues, enabling us to provide targeted treatments and relief for your pet’s ear health.

In House Lab

Our in-house lab provides immediate access to a range of diagnostic tests and results. From blood work and urinalysis to advanced diagnostics like radiology and endocrine evaluations, our on-site lab ensures quick turnaround times for accurate results. This efficiency allows us to promptly diagnose and treat your pet's conditions, enhancing their care and recovery.

Skin Scrapping

Skin scraping is a diagnostic procedure used to identify skin parasites, infections, and other dermatological conditions. During this test, a small sample of skin is collected and examined under a microscope to diagnose issues such as mites, fungi, or bacteria. This helps us provide targeted treatment to address and resolve your pet's skin problems effectively.

Tonometry

Tonometry measures the intraocular pressure (IOP) within your pet's eyes to assess for conditions like glaucoma. By gently applying a device to the eye’s surface, we obtain precise pressure readings. This test helps us detect early signs of eye disease and develop appropriate treatment plans to protect your pet’s vision and eye health.

Endocrinology (Hormones)

Endocrinology focuses on diagnosing and managing hormone-related disorders in pets. We perform tests to evaluate hormone levels and identify conditions such as thyroid imbalances, diabetes, and adrenal disorders. Accurate hormonal assessments help us develop targeted treatment plans to address these issues and maintain your pet’s overall health and well-being.

Progesterone Testing

Progesterone testing measures hormone levels to assess reproductive health in pets. This test is crucial for evaluating fertility, managing breeding cycles, and diagnosing reproductive disorders. By accurately monitoring progesterone levels, we can make informed decisions about your pet's reproductive health and tailor treatments to support their specific needs.

Biochemistry

Biochemistry tests analyze the chemical processes and substances in your pet’s body to assess organ function and metabolic health. These tests measure levels of various biomarkers, such as enzymes, electrolytes, and metabolites, providing valuable insights into conditions like liver disease, kidney dysfunction, and diabetes. Accurate biochemistry results help us diagnose and manage your pet’s health effectively, ensuring tailored treatment and care.

Clotting Factor Diagnostic

Clotting factor diagnostics measure your pet’s blood’s ability to clot properly, identifying disorders such as hemophilia or von Willebrand’s disease. By analyzing specific clotting factors, we can diagnose bleeding disorders and tailor treatment plans to manage and improve your pet’s blood clotting function, ensuring effective and timely care.

Lactate Testing

Ultrasonography (also called ultrasound or sonography) is a noninvasive, pain-free procedure that uses sound waves to examine a pet’s internal organs and other structures inside the body.

Snap Testing

Snap testing provides rapid and reliable results for diagnosing specific infections and conditions. We use this method to detect parvo infection in dogs, FELV/FIV in cats, and pancreatitis in both dogs and cats. These quick and accurate tests enable us to promptly diagnose and initiate appropriate treatment for these serious conditions.

All kinds of services for cats and dogs!

We offer all kinds of diagnostic services for cats and dogs, including in-house lab tests, snap testing for infections like parvo, FELV/FIV, and pancreatitis, as well as advanced procedures such as radiology, ultrasonography, and endocrine evaluations. Our comprehensive diagnostics ensure accurate and timely results to guide effective treatment and care for your pets.
