Diagnostic testing during different life stages and situations

Puppies & Kittens

From the very first appointment, our goal is to give your young pet the healthiest start possible. We begin with a complete blood panel and a stool test to screen for parasites, worms, and any early imbalances. These issues are more common than many new pet owners realize — even in indoor pets — which is why early diagnostics make such a big difference.

Adult Dogs & Cats

At annual wellness visits, we pair a thorough physical exam (eyes, coat, heart, joints, and more) with key diagnostic tests such as stool checks, urinalysis, blood work, and, when appropriate, vaccine titer testing. These tools help us spot subtle problems early and plan the right preventive care for the year ahead.

“Sick” Visits

If your pet isn’t themselves — limping, low energy, appetite changes, or unusual bathroom habits — we typically combine a hands-on exam with imaging (X-ray or ultrasound) and lab tests to pinpoint the underlying issue. This helps us identify problems like blockages, organ concerns, fractures, or other hidden conditions.

We also perform pre-anesthetic diagnostics before dental procedures and surgeries to ensure your pet is stable, safe, and ready for anesthesia.

FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)

Does pet insurance cover diagnostic tests?

In most cases, yes! Many pet insurance plans will pay for diagnostic procedures such as blood tests, X-rays, and ultrasounds when your veterinarian orders them. Coverage can differ between plans, so we’ll go over your specific policy and clarify any out-of-pocket costs you might be responsible for.

What are routine pet diagnostic tests?

Routine diagnostics are tests done even when your pet appears healthy. They often include blood work, urine and fecal analysis, and other lab tests to ensure your pet’s organs and systems are functioning properly. Detecting problems early is key, as many illnesses start subtly before showing obvious symptoms.

Why would my pet need diagnostic tests?

There are several important reasons for diagnostic testing:

To figure out the cause of unusual signs like weight loss, low energy, or blood in urine or stool
To ensure your pet is healthy enough for anesthesia or dental procedures
To uncover hidden problems such as kidney stones, tumors, fractures, arthritis, digestive issues, or organ dysfunction
To keep track of chronic conditions over time
Without these tests, many conditions can go unnoticed until they become more serious
