In House Laboratory Testing

In House Laboratory Testing

We are equipped with an in-house Idexx laboratory, allowing us to run comprehensive and accurate tests quickly and efficiently. Results are available in just minutes and are more cost-effective than external laboratory tests.

With the capability to run individual tests, we can customize testing to best meet the needs of each patient:

  • Haematology – Helps diagnose anemia, infections, blood-clotting disorders, and more. Results are delivered in 5 minutes or less.
  • Comprehensive blood test – Examines red blood cells and individual organ groups, including pre-anesthetic checks.
  • Diabetic test – Diagnoses and manages diabetic patients (Fructosamine).
  • Liver function – Assesses liver function (Bile acid, NSAID profile).
  • Kidney function – Evaluates and detects kidney function (SDMA and Urine Pratio).
  • Thyroid tests – Diagnoses and manages thyroid disease (Total T4).
  • Phenobarbital levels – Monitors and adjusts seizure medication doses.
