At Oakland Park Animal Hospital, we understand that your pet can't tell you where it hurts. That's why we emphasize the critical role of advanced diagnostics in understanding their health. Our hospital is equipped with state-of-the-art diagnostic tools designed to provide quick and accurate answers for pet owners.
We offer a comprehensive range of services, including rapid in-house laboratory tests for immediate results, complemented by partnerships with external labs for more extensive analysis. Our advanced imaging includes digital X-rays for clear skeletal and organ visualization, and ultrasound for detailed, three-dimensional views of internal structures, helping us assess organ function, detect issues like tumors or fluid, and even confirm pregnancy. We also perform PennHip X-rays to screen for hereditary orthopedic problems such as hip and elbow dysplasia, enabling early detection and proactive management.
Diagnostics aren't just for when your pet is sick; routine blood work and X-rays are vital for establishing healthy baseline values and for the early detection of potential health concerns, especially as pets age. This proactive approach allows us to monitor changes like arthritis and evaluate heart and lung health, ensuring your pet enjoys the healthiest life possible.
For appointments or to discuss your pet's diagnostic needs, please call us at 954-731-4228. Our hospital hours are Monday to Friday from 8:00 am to 6:00 pm, and Saturday from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm. We are closed on Sundays.
Keeping Your Pet Healthy
Diagnostics Aren't Just for Illness
Many assume diagnostics, like blood work and X-rays, are only for sick or injured pets. However, that's not the case! Routine blood work on healthy pets helps establish a normal baseline, which is crucial for the early detection and treatment of any health issues. Similarly, regular X-rays are vital for older pets, allowing us to monitor for arthritic changes and assess the health of their heart, lungs, and other organs.
