Pet Blood Tests
Why Blood Tests Matter
Blood tests are crucial because they give us a clear picture of your pet's overall health. Here’s how they help:
Early Detection
Blood tests can help us to detect any abnormal changes to your pet’s health, including organ function, blood cell counts, and potential underlying diseases before symptoms appear
Quick & Accurate Diagnosis
We find out exactly what's causing your pet's symptoms whilst you wait! Most of the testing we perform can be done in our in-house laboratory. When we do need to use an external lab for testing, we usually get results back within a couple of days, and will call you to go over the results straight away.
Effective Monitoring
If your pet is on long-term medication for a condition, regular blood tests can help track how well your pet’s treatment is working over time, and enable us to see if any adjustments to treatment need to be made.
Our Blood Test Services Include:
- Complete Blood Count (CBC) A CBC checks the levels of different blood cells. This test helps us identify infections, anemia, and other blood-related conditions.
- Full Range of Blood Tests We offer a variety of blood tests to assess different aspects of your pet’s health. These tests can detect infections, check organ function, and diagnose metabolic disorders.
- Blood Serum Chemistries These tests look at how well your pet’s organs—like the liver and kidneys—are working. They’re essential for diagnosing organ-related diseases.
- Thyroid Testing We test your pet’s thyroid function to diagnose conditions like hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism, which can affect their energy and overall health.
- Viral Testing Early detection of viral infections is key to preventing their spread and starting treatment promptly. Our viral tests help us manage these diseases effectively.
