Pharmacy and Laboratory

Leon Springs Animal Hospital has a fully equipped laboratory, allowing us to process blood in-house for faster results and more accurate diagnoses. Bloodwork is an important tool to use in diagnosing and preventing problems. We perform bloodwork on all our surgical patients in the form of a pre-operative test panel. Internal organ functions as well as blood cell counts should also be done regularly as part of a wellness schedule. These tests can alert us to problems or conditions we cannot see on a physical exam. Our larger blood panels help in diagnosing problems with sick animals.

We are also equipped to do fecal and heartworm testing, as well as ear and skin cytologies. For more information on fecal parasites and heartworms, please reference our "Parasites" and "Heartworms" pages under Useful Information.

 

Our hospital has a full pharmacy equipped to dispense prescriptions, as well as heartworm, flea, and tick prevention. In the case that we do not have a medication your pet needs, we will find a pharmacy that does or place the order immediately to ensure prompt delivery. We also work with VetCentric, an online pharmacy, that allows you to order and recieve your pet medications at home. If you are interested in utilizing their services, please call our office or click on the Online Pharmacy link to the left.
