Veterinary ServiceIn-House Laboratory
Results in minutes, not days
Our in-house laboratory equipped with IDEXX technology allows us to obtain accurate results in less than 15 minutes. While you wait with your companion, we can analyze their blood, urine and more to establish a rapid, precise diagnosis.
Because your pet cannot tell us where it hurts, laboratory tests allow us to "see" inside their body and detect invisible problems before they become critical.

When do you need lab tests?
Common situations where our laboratory makes all the difference
Vomiting or diarrhea
A blood panel reveals dehydration, infection or organ involvement — allowing us to treat rapidly and effectively.
Unexplained weight loss
Tests check thyroid, kidney, and liver function, and detect diabetes or other metabolic diseases.
Pre-anesthetic exam
Before any surgery, we verify that the kidneys and liver can safely metabolize anesthesia.
Annual health screening
For pets aged 7 and older, annual blood work detects disease before visible symptoms appear.
Increased thirst
Excessive drinking can indicate diabetes, kidney disease, or a hormonal problem. Tests give us the answer quickly.
Lethargy or weakness
A less active pet may be suffering from anemia, infection, or organ disease. Tests reveal the underlying cause.

Why an in-house laboratory is essential
Speed of diagnosis
In emergencies, every minute counts. Getting results in 15 minutes rather than 2 to 3 days can literally save your pet's life.
Maximum accuracy
Fresh samples are more accurate. They have no time to degrade, ensuring reliable results on which we can base treatment decisions.
Less stress
Your pet gets their diagnosis in the same visit. No need to take a sick animal home while waiting for results.
Substantial savings
In-house tests cost less than sending to external labs, and a fast diagnosis avoids costly trial treatments.
Optimal medical follow-up
For pets on treatment, we check effectiveness and adjust quickly. For example, we monitor a diabetic's blood glucose in real time.
Early detection
Kidney failure, diabetes, liver disease — many serious conditions show no symptoms early. Lab tests catch them in time.
Your pet deserves fast, precise care
Our IDEXX in-house laboratory lets us offer you the best in veterinary diagnostics. Results in minutes, immediate treatment, and the peace of mind you deserve.
