Examination
Every pet that enters Groome Pet Vets for treatment or vaccination receives an examination by one of our vets. We believe this gives our clients value for money and peace of mind.
Lab Work
Groome Pet Vets have a large range of laboratory capabilities. Diagnostic blood samples can be collected and run using our sophisticated in-house laboratory equipment. In cases where results may not be needed immediately, or where specialized testing is required, samples will be sent to an outside diagnostic laboratory. Urine and stool samples can be viewed in-hospital for rapid diagnosis.
Radiography
Radiographs (commonly referred to as X-rays) are often used as a diagnostic tool. There is a radiology machine and a processor that are always on and ready to use at any hour of the day or night.
Ultrasound
Groome Pet Vet Doctors have the capability to perform limited ultrasound imaging on an emergency basis. In specific cases this can help to diagnose fluid around the heart, assist in safely obtaining samples of urine, abdominal fluid, or thoracic fluid, or looking for masses. Most importantly we can provide an ultrasound guided PREGNANCY SCAN service.
