When your pet isn’t feeling their best, you want answers — quickly and accurately. At Dry Pond Animal Hospital, our state-of-the-art diagnostic center allows us to get to the root of your pet’s health concerns efficiently, so we can begin treatment right away.
Our advanced in-house diagnostic tools, combined with consultation from board-certified veterinary specialists, help ensure your pet receives the highest level of medical care available.
Our in-house laboratory lets us perform a wide range of tests within minutes — often during your pet’s appointment.
We can evaluate:
Having these results available quickly allows our veterinarians to make timely, informed treatment decisions — improving outcomes and reducing stress for both pets and owners.
Our team uses an in-house microscope daily to analyze samples such as skin scrapings, ear swabs, fine-needle aspirates, and fecal exams.
If we see something unusual or uncertain, we can digitally scan and send slides directly to a veterinary pathologist for rapid expert evaluation — often receiving results same day.
This combination of on-site expertise and remote pathology consultation ensures that even subtle abnormalities are detected and properly diagnosed.
We utilize high-definition digital radiography to evaluate bones, lungs, heart, and abdominal organs.
Every X-ray can be reviewed by a board-certified veterinary radiologist, typically within an hour, providing an added layer of diagnostic accuracy.
This advanced collaboration helps us confirm complex diagnoses and develop precise, effective treatment plans — getting your pet back to health faster.
Our diagnostic suite also includes a urine imaging analyzer that captures detailed pictures of your pet’s urine sample.
This technology helps us more accurately identify urinary tract infections, crystals, and kidney issues — and we can even show you the images during your visit so you can better understand your pet’s condition.
When complex or rare cases arise, we collaborate directly with board-certified veterinary specialists, including radiologists, internists, and pathologists. This ensures your pet benefits from a full team of diagnostic experts, right from our hospital.
If your pet is showing signs of illness — or you just want peace of mind — contact Dry Pond Animal Hospital today.
Our advanced diagnostic center provides accurate answers and expert care to help your pet recover and stay healthy for years to come.
