Frequently Asked Questions About Diagnostic Services
When should my pet be evaluated?
If you notice changes such as decreased appetite, vomiting/diarrhea, coughing or sneezing, increased thirst/urination, limping, lethargy, or behavior changes, contact our office to schedule a diagnostic exam. Early evaluation often leads to better outcomes.
How often should my pet have blood work?
Most adult pets benefit from annual screening; seniors or pets on long-term medications may need testing every 6 months. Pre-anesthetic blood work is recommended before any procedure requiring sedation or anesthesia.
What is a heartworm or fecal test?
A heartworm test is a blood screen (primarily for dogs, sometimes cats) that detects heartworm infection. A fecal test checks for intestinal parasites. Both are vital to your pet’s health and your family’s safety.
