We also offer in-house digital radiography for real-time internal imaging and, by appointment only, on-site ultrasound services to evaluate soft tissue structures and internal organs.

This ensures a high standard of diagnostic accuracy and professional oversight while keeping care coordinated within our hospital.

Our veterinarians interpret diagnostic results alongside your pet’s clinical signs, medical history, and physical examination findings. This comprehensive approach allows us to form a clear understanding of your pet’s health status and determine the most appropriate next steps—whether that involves additional testing, a treatment plan, or simple monitoring. By correlating lab and imaging results with real-world observations, we’re able to make informed, timely decisions that are tailored to your pet’s unique situation.
