We are proud to have a full-service in-house laboratory by IDEXX VetLab Analyzers. The IDEXX analyzer gives us quick and accurate results, allowing us to better serve our patients.

• IDEXX Catalyst DX provides comprehensive blood panels used to evaluate major organ functions.
• Along with being a useful diagnostic tool for sick patients, the Catalyst also is used as a valuable pre-operative screening for patients undergoing surgical procedures during which they would receive anesthesia.
• Results in 15 minutes
• IDEXX ProCyte DX Hematology Analyzer offers 5 part white blood cell differential and absolute reticulocyte count along with validated results on 26 different blood parameters in under 5 minutes

* With our ability to perform all of these diagnostics inside our clinic, we are better able to effectively initiate treatment in our patients.

Unfortunately, sometimes emergencies happen. We can offer medical and surgical emergency treatment during regular office hours.

Should an emergency occur when we are not open, we work in collaboration with the local 24-hour emergency hospitals listed below:

*All surgical patients are highly encouraged to take advantage of a discounted pre-anesthesia in-house blood screening. Liver and kidney values will be evaluated as it is through these vital organs that the anesthesia leaves the body. Results from this test are returned in 15 minutes. Depending on our doctor’s results, he may change the type of anesthesia used, administer fluids before and during the surgical procedure, or even postpone the surgery.

Here at Fulton, we are proud of our advanced technological abilities to evaluate your pet’s internal function:

• Digital radiographs capable of immediate analysis
• OFA hips, elbows, and spines are routinely evaluated and sent electronically. We are proud of our good working relationship with OFA(Orthopedic Foundation for Animals)
• Ultrasound used to see soft tissues and organs under the skin as well as to confirm pregnancy

Ultrasound imaging uses high-frequency sound waves to produce images captured in real-time, giving us an inside look at various organ systems. This helps us diagnose a variety of conditions or monitor organ function. Potential benefits of this technology include:

• Finding the source of abdominal pain
• Observing blood flow to organs
