Advanced Veterinary Diagnostic Testing
At Wewoka Animal Hospital, we understand how important your pet’s health is to you. That’s why we use a range of advanced diagnostic tools—including digital X-rays, ultrasound, and a fully equipped in-house laboratory—to get fast, accurate answers when your pet isn’t feeling their best. These technologies allow us to diagnose problems early, monitor ongoing conditions, and create personalized treatment plans without the need for invasive procedures.
Whether your pet is showing signs of illness or you’re coming in for a routine wellness check, our diagnostic services play a crucial role in keeping them healthy.
In-House Laboratory Testing: Fast Results, Better Outcomes
Our in-house veterinary lab allows us to run a variety of tests right here at the clinic—often with same-day results. This helps us start treatment quickly and reduces stress for both you and your pet.
We routinely perform tests such as:
- Complete Blood Count (CBC): Checks for anemia, infection, and immune system health.
- Blood Chemistry Panels: Assesses organ function, especially liver and kidneys.
- Parvovirus Testing: Rapid detection of this contagious and potentially deadly virus in puppies and dogs.
- Heartworm Testing: Identifies heartworm infection early, before symptoms become severe.
- Fecal Exams: Screens for intestinal parasites like roundworms, hookworms, and tapeworms.
- Urinalysis: Detects urinary tract infections, diabetes, kidney disease, and more.
- Electrolyte Testing: Checks for dehydration and imbalances that can affect organ function.
- Cytology for Skin & Ears: Diagnoses bacterial or yeast infections and helps treat persistent irritation.
- Feline Leukemia (FeLV) and Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) Testing: Vital for cats of all ages, especially outdoor or multi-cat households.
- Progesterone Testing: Accurately measures your female pet’s hormone levels to determine the optimal time for breeding.
Parasite Testing and Prevention
Parasites aren’t just uncomfortable—they can lead to serious health concerns for your pet and even spread to people. Routine parasite screening helps us detect and treat issues before they escalate.
We offer:
- Fecal Testing: Identifies intestinal parasites like giardia, coccidia, and worms.
- Blood Testing: Screens for bloodborne parasites such as heartworms or the presence of antibodies or antigens that indicate the presence of parasites.
- Skin Scraping and Cytology: Diagnoses external parasites such as mites or lice that may cause itching and hair loss.
Heartworm Disease Testing in Dogs and Cats
Heartworm disease is a serious and potentially fatal condition, especially in dogs. Cats can also be affected, though diagnosis is more challenging.
Our testing includes:
- Antigen Tests (Dogs): Detect adult female heartworms, usually six months after infection.
- Microfilaria Tests (Dogs): Identify immature heartworms circulating in the bloodstream.
- Antibody Tests (Cats): Detect a cat’s immune response to heartworm exposure—even before symptoms appear.
FIV and FeLV Testing for Cats
Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) and Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV) weaken your cat’s immune system and increase their vulnerability to infections, cancers, and chronic illness.
We offer:
- Antibody and Antigen Testing: Helps detect exposure or active infection.
- Quick In-House Results: Begin managing your cat’s care plan without delay.

Urinalysis: Small Sample, Big Insights
A simple urine sample can reveal a lot about your pet’s overall health.
We use urinalysis to detect:
- Urinary tract infections (UTIs)
- Kidney disease
- Diabetes
- Bladder stones or crystals
- Dehydration and other imbalances
- Free-catch: Collected while your pet urinates naturally.
- Manual Expression: Gently expressing the bladder.
- Cystocentesis: A sterile method where urine is drawn directly from the bladder using a needle—typically for more accurate results.
Digital X-Rays: A Clearer View Inside
- Fractures and bone injuries
- Arthritis and joint issues
- Foreign objects
- Tumors or masses
Ultrasound Imaging: Safe, Real-Time Diagnostics
- Heart conditions
- Pregnancy
- Liver, kidney, or bladder issues
- Abdominal pain or swelling
Allergy Testing and Skin Diagnostics
Is your pet constantly itching, scratching, or licking their skin? Persistent skin issues can stem from a variety of causes, including allergies, parasites, or infections. At our clinic, we focus on identifying and treating the underlying cause of your pet’s discomfort through thorough physical exams and diagnostics.
While we do not offer formal allergy testing (such as skin or blood panels), we provide targeted, in-house diagnostics and clinical insight to help determine whether allergies are likely—and how to best manage them.
What We Offer:
- Skin & Coat Evaluation: Our team examines your pet’s skin, coat, and ears to identify signs of irritation, infection, parasites, or environmental sensitivities.
- Cytology & Skin Scrapes: In-house testing can detect yeast, bacteria, or mites that may be causing your pet’s symptoms.
- Elimination Diet Guidance: If food allergies are suspected, we can guide you through an elimination diet trial to identify potential dietary triggers.
- Treatment Options:
- Anti-itch medications (e.g., antihistamines or corticosteroids)
- Long-term allergy management medications or injections (like Cytopoint or Apoquel)
- Flea control and parasite prevention
- Targeted therapies based on lab findings
While specialized allergy tests such as blood testing or skin testing can provide more detailed information, these are typically performed by dermatology specialists and are not available at our clinic. However, we’re happy to consult on whether such testing is appropriate and refer you if needed.
If it turns out allergies aren’t the issue, our in-house laboratory allows us to pursue additional diagnostics to uncover other causes of your pet’s skin condition.
