Pre-Anesthetic Blood Screening

Help us keep your pet healthy with preanesthetic testing

A pre anesthetic wellness screen is a valuable tool used to ensure the internal health of your pet prior to performing procedures that require anesthesia.  Many diseases can not be detected on a physical exam and without screening, these diseases would remain silent.  Using our in-house laboratory we are able to analyze a blood sample for values that may indicate impairment in the function of your pet’s liver, kidney, or pancreas.  We can also ensure there is no infection, anemia or electrolyte imbalance.  If a problem is identified, we have likely caught it early and can make appropriate treatment recommendations at a point when treatment will make the most difference.  In some cases, anesthesia may need to be altered or delayed for the safety of your pet.
