In-House Veterinary Lab Services
Our in-house lab offers a wide variety of tests, allowing us to quickly assess your pet’s health. These tests include blood chemistries, complete blood count (CBC), electrolyte panels, and screenings for parasites and tick-borne diseases. We also test for feline leukemia, feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV), and heartworm disease in both cats and dogs. Having the ability to perform these tests on-site means faster results and more timely decisions regarding your pet’s care.
Routine blood and fecal tests are vital in detecting health issues early, often before any symptoms are evident. These screenings help us monitor for conditions such as kidney disease, liver disease, diabetes, and more, ensuring that any problems are caught early. Fecal exams also help identify parasites, which can affect your pet’s health and potentially pose risks to your family.
We also have advanced equipment that allows us to connect with a board-certified pathologist for more complex diagnostics, including the analysis of masses, blood smears, and fluid samples.
Expert Collaboration with a Pathologist
Our Imagyst system enables us to collaborate with a remote board-certified pathologist for in-depth analysis of complex cases. This partnership allows us to provide rapid and accurate diagnoses, particularly for cancer patients and other complex conditions, ensuring that your pet receives the most appropriate care in a timely manner.
Ultrasound for Dogs and Cats
Dr. Mills brings years of experience and additional training in the use of ultrasound technology. We frequently perform abdominal ultrasounds and echocardiograms, providing detailed images that help us diagnose a wide range of conditions without invasive procedures. Many local veterinary practices refer patients to Dr. Mills for these services due to our ability to provide thorough and accurate diagnostic imaging.
Digital Full-Body and Dental X-Rays for Dogs & Cats
Maintaining your pet’s health includes paying close attention to their oral care. Our digital dental X-ray technology allows us to detect issues below the gum line, ensuring more effective dental treatments. In addition to dental imaging, we offer full body X-rays to assess your pet’s bones, lungs, heart, abdomen, and more. These X-rays help us monitor ongoing health conditions and diagnose injuries or illnesses that might otherwise go unnoticed.
