Read More Pets need parasite prevention to protect them from devastating diseases associated with parasites like Lyme and heartworm disease. We love that pets sleep in our beds and lick our faces but worry about our own exposure to parasites, from the irritation of fleas and to the serious human illnesses associated with some parasites. As our climate warms and parasites move north, parasite prevention needs to protect pets and their families for more different parasites and for more months of the year.

Our in-house lab provides answers quickly and syncs with our referral lab so levels can be trended. Screening tests for heartworm, kidney failure, fecal parasites and many other conditions are advised because cats and dogs will hide signs of illness as a natural defense mechanism. Diseases like diabetes mellitus, hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, hyperadrenocorticism, and hypoadrenocorticism require frequent laboratory monitoring to ensure medications are dosed appropriately.
