Diagnostic Testing and Lab Services Available
The diagnostic and laboratory services offered at Coral Breeze Animal Hospital are:
Physical Examination
Blood Tests
Urinalysis
A urinalysis evaluates your pet’s urine for changes in concentration, acidity, and substances such as blood, protein, glucose, cells, bacteria, and crystals. This simple diagnostic test can provide valuable information about hydration, kidney function, urinary tract health, diabetes, infection, and the risk of bladder stones. It can be recommended when a pet has urinary symptoms or used with bloodwork during routine wellness screening to identify concerns that are not yet causing noticeable signs.
Fecal Examination
The Importance of Quick and Accurate Diagnoses
A complete diagnostic workup at the first sign of illness or injury supports early detection and allows a veterinarian to build a preliminary treatment plan. Early diagnosis can minimize complications, improve outcomes, and help families manage medical costs.

Frequently Asked Questions About Diagnostic Services
When should my pet be evaluated?
If you notice changes such as decreased appetite, vomiting/diarrhea, coughing or sneezing, increased thirst/urination, limping, lethargy, or behavior changes, contact our office to schedule a diagnostic exam. Early evaluation often leads to better outcomes.
How often should my pet have blood work?
Most adult pets benefit from annual screening; seniors or pets on long-term medications may need testing every 6 months. Pre-anesthetic blood work is recommended before any procedure requiring sedation or anesthesia.
What is a heartworm or fecal test?
A heartworm test is a blood screen (primarily for dogs, sometimes cats) that detects heartworm infection. A fecal test checks for intestinal parasites. Both are vital to your pet’s health and your family’s safety.
