Pet pathology is the veterinary speciality that involves the laboratory evaluation of blood, body fluids or tissues in order to identify existing diseases. Standard laboratory tests used by pet pathologists include blood chemistries, complete blood counts, clotting times, urinalysis, faecal tests, biopsy examination, cultures, and infectious disease testing.
At Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital, our highly trained team of pet pathologists use the latest diagnostic techniques to provide accurate and timely results for our clients. We are committed to providing the best possible care for your beloved pet, and our state-of-the-art facilities allow us to offer a wide range of services to meet your needs. Whether you are looking for a second opinion on a diagnosis or need help managing a chronic health condition, we are here to help.
Our Pet Pathology services are some of the best in the business, and we can provide results within minutes for most tests. For more specialised testing, results may take 12-24 hours for blood results or up to 14 days for biopsy results, depending on the nature of the test being performed. However, you can rest assured that our team of highly trained professionals will provide the best possible care for your pet. So if you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to give us a call. We’re always here to help.
Our animal hospital is equipped with an in-house laboratory that allows our veterinarians to quickly perform many of these diagnostic tests to achieve an accurate and rapid diagnosis. This is especially important in very ill animals and those requiring immediate or emergency treatment. Some more specialised tests may need to be performed by an external veterinary laboratory.
First and foremost, it allows our veterinarians to perform many diagnostic tests and achieve an accurate diagnosis quickly. This is especially important in very ill animals and those requiring immediate or emergency treatment. Additionally, having an in-house lab means that we can provide more prompt and efficient service to our clients. We are also able to offer a broader range of tests and services, including Pet Pathology services. All of this means that we can better meet the needs of our patients and their families.
