To ensure a proper diagnosis, we often need to examine your pet. We begin a medical assessment by checking the below areas for any abnormalities:
- eyes
- ears
- skin
- cardiovascular
- neurological
- gastrointestinal
- musculoskeletal
We will perform blood and/or urine tests as necessary to check multiple systems to include:
- kidneys
- liver
- pancreas
- endocrine
- thyroid
- adrenal glands
Based on your pet’s condition, we may recommend further diagnostic tests, such as radiography (x-rays), endoscopy (internal scoping), ultrasound, or biopsy.
If you’re concerned that something may be wrong with your pet, please call us to schedule a medical assessment. Depending on the symptoms, we may ask you to bring in your pet right away.
