COMPLETE LABORATORY WORK-UP  (Cats $232.00 / Dogs $283.00)

• COMPLETE BLOOD COUNT: This common test measures the number of red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets in a given sample of blood.  The numbers and types of these cells give the Veterinarian the information needed to diagnose anemia, infections and leukemia.  A complete blood count also helps your Veterinarian to monitor your pet's response to some treatments.

• URINALYSIS: Laboratory analysis of urine is a tool used to detect the presence of one or more specific substances that normally do not appear in urine, such as protein, sugar, white blood cells or blood.  A measurement of the dilution or concentration of urine is also helpful in diagnosing diseases.  Urinalysis can assist the Veterinarian in the diagnosis of urinary-tract infections, diabetes, dehydration, kidney problems and many other conditions.

• BLOOD CHEMISTRY PANEL: The blood chemistry panels measure electrolytes, enzymes and chemical elements such as calcium and phosphorous.  This information helps your Veterinarian determine how various organs, such as the kidneys, pancreas, and liver, are currently functioning.   the results of these tests help your Veterinarian to formulate an accurate diagnosis, prescribe proper therapy, and monitor the response of your pet to treatment.

• PARASITE EVALUATION: Microscopic examination of your pet's feces can provide information about many different kinds of diseases, such as difficulties with digestion, internal bleeding, and disorders of the pancreas.  Most importantly, this test confirms the presence of intestinal parasites such as roundworms, hookworms, whipworms, tapeworm, and giardia.

RADIOGRAPHS OF ABDOMEN & CHEST 

(Cats & Small Dogs $221.00 / Large Dogs $291.00)

• X-rays of the chest and abdomen to help get a clear picture of your pet's internal organs and can provide important medical information that blood tests and other laboratory analysis cannot.  Changes in bone characteristics such as size, shape and location of internal organs and lymph nodes may be the first sign that a problem is starting.
