In-House Diagnostics for Dogs & Cats
Fast Answers When Your Pet Needs Them Most
At Whittington Veterinary Clinic, we know that when your pet isn’t feeling well, every minute matters. That’s why we offer in-house diagnostic testing—so we can quickly get to the root of the problem and begin treatment without unnecessary delays.
Why Speed Matters
Pets can’t tell us what’s wrong, and in many cases, their symptoms may seem mild while a more serious issue is developing. Quick diagnostics allow us to:
- Identify illnesses or injuries early
- Start treatment immediately, when it can make the biggest difference
- Ease your worry with faster answers
Whether it’s vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy, or something just seems “off,” our in-house lab helps us act fast and confidently.
What We Can Test In-House
Our clinic is equipped to run many common tests, including:
- Bloodwork (CBC and chemistry panels)
- Urinalysis
- Heartworm Tests
- Intestinal Parasite Screening
- Parvo Tests (Dog)
- Viral Testing (Cats)
- Thyroid and Glucose
- Biopsies
- Skin scrapings and cytology
- X-rays and digital imaging
- Ear and eye diagnostics
These tools help us make quick, accurate decisions—often while you wait.
Compassionate, Efficient Care
In-house testing not only saves time, but also helps reduce stress on both pets and their people. No waiting days for results or delaying treatment. You get answers, support, and a clear plan—all under one roof.
