Our Laboratory Testing Services
At Vet Corpus Christi TX, we offer a wide array of laboratory testing services to meet the diverse needs of our clients:
Blood Tests
Blood tests are essential for assessing your pet’s overall health. They can reveal information about your pet’s organ function, immune system, and presence of infections or diseases. Common blood tests include:
- Complete Blood Count (CBC): Evaluates red and white blood cells and platelets.
- Blood Chemistry Panel: Assesses organ function and electrolyte balance.
- Thyroid Function Tests: Checks for thyroid hormone levels.
Urinalysis
Urinalysis is a simple yet powerful diagnostic tool. It helps in detecting urinary tract infections, kidney disease, diabetes, and other conditions. This test provides valuable information about your pet’s metabolic and systemic health.
Fecal Testing
Fecal tests are conducted to identify parasites such as worms and protozoa. Regular fecal testing is crucial for maintaining your pet’s digestive health and preventing the spread of parasites to other pets or humans.

When Should You Consider Diagnostic Testing?
Regular diagnostic testing is an integral part of your pet’s preventive care routine. However, there are specific situations where testing becomes even more critical:
- Routine Wellness Exams: Annual exams should include basic blood work and other tests to monitor your pet’s health.
- Behavioral Changes: If your pet exhibits changes in behavior, appetite, or energy levels, testing can help identify underlying issues.
- Pre-Surgical Evaluations: Before any surgical procedure, diagnostics are essential to assess your pet’s readiness and minimize risks.
