What to expect
Diagnostic testing is a vital part of the decision-making process, which aims to increase diagnostic certainty, assists management and treatment decisions, and provides a prognosis.
If your pet has a specific problem at the time of the examination, the veterinarian may perform additional tests that are not generally done as part of a typical physical examination. Our in-house laboratory is equipped with the latest IDEXX machines and many tests can be performed in-house but some have to be sent to contract laboratories.
There are a variety of tests available, including:
• Bloodwork: hematology and biochemistry • Microscopic examinations (Cytology) • Bacteriology • Fecal examination • Urine analysis
• Skin scrape examination • Wood’s lamp examination • Allergy testing • Digestive disorders and intoxication investigations

Depending on the species and type of analysis required, results may take 10 to 15 minutes if the procedure can be performed in-house. If the sample has to be sent to another laboratory, it may take a few days. We always do our best to minimize turnaround time in order to get a rapid result.
