We have our own on-site laboratory with brand new machines and are able to offer a huge complement of tests. Many of our tests will give same day results, some in as little as 20 minutes. We have a close relationship with one of the leading veterinary laboratories in the country and any test that we unable to perform in the clinic can be arranged quickly.
