Pet Diagnostics

Since pets can’t speak for themselves, we have in-house tools that do the talking for any potential issue that you pet may be having. At Faulkner Animal Hospital, we employ several diagnostic tools to give our patients the best care possible. We use tools such as an in house laboratory, in-house pharmacy, digital x-rays, electrocardiography, OFA x-rays, tonometry, and ultrasound.

Digital
X-rays

Your pet’s digital radiographs are available for viewing immediately. This helps our veterinarians see the problem and get to work on helping your pet feel better.

In-House Laboratory

Our in-house laboratory provides quick, accurate analysis, whether for routine health screenings or emergency analysis, on the many tests we can perform in-house.

In-House Pharmacy

Our stocked, in-house pharmacy allows us to get your pet the medications he or she needs quickly, a competitive price, when you are at the hospital.

Tonometry / Tonopen

We offer tonometry as part of our ophthalmology services. Tonopens allows us to measure eye pressure, which is important for pets with suspected diseases of the eye, such as glaucoma.

Annual Testing is Recommended for Pets

With your pet aging much faster than you do, seemingly healthy pets can have issues quicker than we realize. Blood, urine, and fecal testing help us find information that is essential to their health which may be otherwise undetectable.

We recommend yearly blood and fecal screens to check for parasites and diseases as part of our commitment to preventive care in our community. Early disease detection is vital for maintaining your pet’s health and averting potential future issues.
