Having your pet examined at least once a year is a great way to stay proactive about their health, but a physical exam can only detect a limited number of conditions. That's why veterinarians often rely on advanced diagnostics for an internal examination. Orillia Pet Hospital is equipped with several diagnostic capabilities to get a glimpse â??below the surface,â?? allowing us to better diagnose and treat medical conditions before they become serious. Just as with every other service we provide, your pet's safety and well-being are our #1 priority. With our diagnostic services, our goal is to treat illnesses, injuries, and other conditions as quickly and effectively as possible. These services are listed and explained below.

Pet X-Rays (Radiography)

X-ray technology allows us to examine your pet internally to detect fractures, foreign bodies, and other conditions. With our digital dental X-ray technology, we can view below your pet's gum line to detect gum disease and other oral problems. In some cases, an X-ray exam can be combined with an ultrasound exam for the most accurate diagnosis.

Complete In-House Laboratory Testing

With our convenient in-house laboratory, we can perform several tests, including blood work, urinalyses, fecal tests, in a timely manner. These tests are necessary in the diagnosis of diabetes, parasites, and other conditions. The sooner we can make an accurate diagnosis, the sooner we can develop a treatment plan.
