What You Should Know: Pet Lab Work
Having access to in-house veterinary diagnostics offers faster results and more immediate treatment plans than outside laboratory testing.
Why is in-house lab testing important for my pet?
Quick and reliable results allow us to diagnose and treat illnesses faster, reducing stress for you and your pet.
What types of tests can be performed in-house?
We offer a variety of tests, including bloodwork, urinalysis, fecal exams, and infectious disease testing, to assess your pet’s overall health. If you are looking for a specific test for your cat or dog, we encourage you to give us a call.
Why should pets have annual lab work?
Routine lab work can detect early signs of disease, organ function changes, and infections before symptoms appear, allowing for proactive care. We encourage all pets to have routine labs performed during an annual wellness exam.
How quickly can I expect my pet’s lab results?
Most tests performed in-house will have results within the same appointment. For specialized testing through a reference lab or select kinds of in-house testing, timing will vary by the test being performed. A member of our team will contact you to discuss tne results as soon as they are available.
Our on-site diagnostic testing for pets has fast and accurate results.
Some of the most commonly performed tests include:
- Complete Blood Count (CBC): Evaluates red and white blood cell levels to detect anemia, infection, and overall immune health.
- Chemistry Panel: Assesses organ function, electrolyte levels, and metabolic health.
- Thyroid Test (T4): Blood test that assesses thyroid function
- Kidney Function Test (SDMA): Detects early-stage kidney disease before symptoms develop.
- Urinalysis: Checks for infections, kidney function, and urinary tract health.
- Fecal Test: Screens for intestinal parasites.
- Heartworm Test: Detects heartworm infections, sometimes before symptoms appear.
- Parvo Test: Rapid detection of parvovirus, a serious and often fatal disease in puppies.
- Feline Combo Test: Screens for Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV) and Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV).
- Cytology: Examines skin, ear, or mass samples under a microscope to detect infections, abnormal cells, and more.
With rapid turnaround times, our in-house diagnostics lead to your pet getting the necessary care as soon as possible.
What if your pet needs testing we cannot perform in-house?
While our in-house lab covers a broad range of diagnostic needs, some cases may require specialized testing or equipment. When needed, Just For Pets Animal Hospital collaborates with a trusted external reference laboratory to make sure your pet receives the most comprehensive and accurate testing available. Our partnership allows us to expand our diagnostic capabilities while still providing seamless continuity of care.
