Our clinic has all the necessary facilities to enable our vets to conduct clinical pathology tests on your pet. These tests are sometimes critical in assisting our team to provide an accurate diagnosis quickly. Common tests we conduct include blood chemistry panels, complete blood counts, clotting tests, urinalysis, faecal examinations, biopsies, cultures and infectious disease screenings.
Our clinical pathology services includes the collection and analysis of blood, bodily fluids and tissue samples, to diagnose diseases. In-house tests typically provide same-day results, while external lab results vary — blood tests usually take 12–24 hours and biopsy results may take up to 14 days. Once results are available, your veterinarian will contact you to discuss the findings and any necessary treatment.
