Vet diagnosing
Here at Foothills Animal Hospital we have full digital x-ray capabilities. Our veterinarians will discuss your pet’s case and conduct a thorough physical examination to determine whether your pet needs x-rays. X-rays are a very important tool to help us diagnose disease in animals, particularly for conditions involving bones, the chest or abdomen.

We can give you a digital copy of your pet’s x-rays and we can easily refer them to specialists should we need a second opinion.

At Foothills Animal Hospital we also have in house laboratory services. This allows our veterinarians to quickly perform many diagnostic tests to achieve an accurate and rapid diagnosis. This is especially important in very ill animals and those requiring immediate emergency treatment.

We are able to test your pet’s blood and urine and give you test results within the hour to help us treat your pet more accurately.
