At UniVet Medical Centre, our in-house laboratory plays a vital role in supporting accurate diagnosis, timely treatment and ongoing patient monitoring. By performing a wide range of diagnostic tests on-site, our veterinary team can obtain critical health information quickly, enabling prompt clinical decision-making and efficient patient management.

From routine wellness screenings to complex medical investigations, laboratory testing provides valuable insights into a patient’s overall health and supports the development of targeted treatment plans tailored to individual needs.

What Is a Veterinary Laboratory?

A veterinary laboratory is a specialised diagnostic facility where samples such as blood, urine, faeces, skin and other biological specimens are analysed to assess your pet’s health. Laboratory testing helps veterinarians detect diseases, evaluate organ function, identify infections and monitor ongoing medical conditions.

At UniVet, our in-house laboratory enables many diagnostic tests to be performed promptly, reducing waiting times and supporting timely medical intervention.

Yes. Modern veterinary X-rays use low radiation levels and are considered safe. We only recommend them when necessary, and precautions are always taken to protect your pet.

The cost varies depending on the type of X-ray and whether sedation is required. Our team will provide a clear estimate before proceeding.
