Early Detection Lab Work

The doctor and staff of Aurora Hills Animal Hospital support the early detection of diseases in our pets. There is no one single test that can determine your pet's health.  Early detection screening lab work is a series of tests that are customized to your pet's age and lifestyle.  Our pets are designed to hide signs of illness.  In most instances, a pet's illness is very advanced by the time he shows outward signs of sickness.  Early detection lab work will often find abnormalities weeks or even months before your pet would have started acting sick.  We have three categories of early detection screening lab work:
