In-House Diagnostics

In-House Pet Diagnostics

When your pet isn’t feeling well, fast and accurate answers matter. At Portland Veterinary Hospital, we offer advanced in-house diagnostic capabilities that allow us to detect illness, evaluate symptoms, and begin treatment—all without the delays of sending tests to outside laboratories. With immediate access to test results, we can make informed decisions that lead to quicker relief and better outcomes for your pet.

Advanced Diagnostic Tools On Site

Our clinic is equipped with a wide range of state-of-the-art diagnostic tools designed to assess everything from internal organ function to musculoskeletal injuries. In-house testing allows us to examine your pet’s condition in real time and respond quickly to their needs.

• Digital radiography (X-rays) for imaging bones, joints, and internal organs
• Complete blood counts (CBC) and chemistry panels
• Urinalysis and fecal testing
• Parasite screening
• Heartworm, tick-borne, and infectious disease testing

Why In-House Diagnostics Matter

Unlike outsourced lab testing, in-house diagnostics provide same-day results—often within minutes. This is especially important in urgent situations, such as suspected poisoning, injury, or unexplained changes in appetite or behavior. Having diagnostic answers on hand allows us to:

• Identify the root cause of symptoms faster
• Start appropriate treatment right away
• Monitor chronic conditions and treatment responses over time
• Minimize stress and waiting for both pets and pet parents

Focused on Accuracy and Compassion

We combine modern technology with a compassionate approach to veterinary care. Our team is trained in the latest diagnostic techniques and committed to providing a comfortable experience for every patient—whether it’s a routine check-up or an unexpected illness.
