What Are Veterinary Diagnostic Services?
Veterinary diagnostic services involve tests and tools that help us identify illnesses, monitor ongoing conditions, and assess your pet’s internal health. Because pets cannot tell us when something feels wrong, diagnostics allow us to catch issues early — often before symptoms even appear.
Our diagnostic capabilities at Ojala Family Pet Care include:
- Comprehensive bloodwork and laboratory testing
- Urinalysis and fecal exams
- Digital imaging (X-rays)
- Cytology and fine needle aspirates (for masses or skin conditions)
- Heartworm testing and parasite screening
Whether your pet needs routine preventative screening or urgent testing for illness, we’re equipped to deliver answers quickly and accurately.
How Veterinary Diagnostics Work
- Initial Examination: When your pet isn’t feeling well — or as part of routine care — we start with a thorough physical examination to determine what diagnostics may be needed.
- In-House Testing: Many of our lab tests can be run in-house, providing fast results that help us make informed medical decisions during the same visit.
- Imaging and Advanced Testing: For deeper insights, we offer digital radiography (x-rays) and partner with trusted veterinary laboratories for specialized testing when needed.
- Treatment Planning: Once we have a clear diagnosis, our team works closely with you to develop a treatment plan tailored to your pet’s needs, lifestyle, and overall health.
Why Diagnostics Are So Important
- Early Detection: Catching issues like kidney disease, diabetes, infections, or cancers early gives your pet the best chance at successful treatment.
- Monitoring Chronic Conditions: Regular diagnostics help us manage ongoing health issues and adjust care plans proactively.
- Peace of Mind: Clear, accurate diagnostic information provides valuable reassurance about your pet’s health and wellbeing.
Many common health problems can be treated more effectively — and affordably — when caught early through routine diagnostic screenings.

Yes! Most diagnostic procedures, like blood draws and X-rays, are quick, safe, and minimally invasive.
We prioritize your pet’s comfort and use gentle handling throughout every test.
