Diagnostics

Could an illness or injury be plaguing your pet?

When people get sick or injured, they visit the doctor, explain their symptoms and receive the appropriate care. With pets, it’s not always this straightforward. Because animals can’t speak, they aren’t always able to let us know when something is bothering them. 

What’s more, many animals are good at hiding the signs of illness, allowing it to develop and worsen undetected.

The veterinary diagnostic services at Red Bluff Animal Hospital enable us to identify and treat health problems in a timely manner. Faster diagnosis of illness and injury can dramatically improve the chances of a positive outcome.

Laboratory

Our convenient in-house diagnostic laboratory makes it quick and efficient to run a wide variety of tests. In many cases, we can have the answers we need in just minutes. This means we can have a treatment plan in place before you and your best friend even leave the exam room. 

Imaging

When a physical exam and lab work aren’t sufficient to reach a diagnosis, we turn to advanced imaging technology, including x-rays and ultrasound. These tools enable us to evaluate the bones and internal organs, identifying injuries, diagnosing illness and determining its severity. 

Digital images can be analyzed by our doctors in real-time or shared electronically with specialists if necessary.

If your pet has been acting a bit under the weather lately, don’t take chances. Contact Red Bluff Animal Hospital right away. We’ll get to the bottom of the problem and get your pet back on the path to good health again.
