Internal medicine is the diagnosis and treatment of disease. We use our comprehensive exams paired with diagnostics, if indicated, to keep your pet as healthy and comfortable as possible. City Limits Vet Clinic is a new clinic with state-of-the-art equipment that helps streamline this process. The diagnostic capabilities available to us include the following:
Digital x-rays: Our x-ray machine is top of the line with some of the most advanced technology available in human and animal medicine today. It provides highly detailed x-rays where diseases can be discovered in-house or sent out to a board certified radiologist for a specialty opinion.
Dental x-rays: We are now able to take real time x-rays of your dog’s and cat’s teeth and tooth roots at the time of their dental cleanings. This means we can find and address issues while your pet is under anesthesia instead of needing to schedule two different surgeries.
Ultrasound: Our ultrasound machine aides us in visualizing individual organs such as the urinary bladder or spleen. It can also be used to aide in collection cells/samples by adding an extra level of safety due to the ability to visualize where important organs and vessels are.
In-house Laboratory Services: Our lab is stocked with highly efficient and accurate machines that are able to provide test results in as little as 10 minutes. This includes complete blood counts, full and abbreviated chemistries, parvo testing, heartworm testing, feline immunodeficiency virus and feline leukemia virus testing, blood glucose, and urinalysis.
Reference Laboratory Services: We have a relationship with one of the top reference labs in the country. For many advanced tests, we are able to get results within 24-48 hours as well as access to board certified pathologist and other specialists to ensure your pet is getting the best care anyone can provide.
Microscopy: We have a microscope that has the power to give 1000x magnification. The microscope gives us the ability to identify bacteria, see parasites that are too small to be seen with the naked eye, and to evaluate the structure of a single red blood cell in a sea of thousands of other cells.
