In-Clinic Blood Work

Pet/Animal Blood Work

Beckett & Associates offers in-clinic blood work for patients who are medically ill or will be undergoing an anesthetic procedure. Our technicians run complete blood counts, chemistry panels and thyroid levels on our in-house equipment so that our doctors are able to diagnose and treat many conditions before the patient leaves our care. Our doctors also recommend wellness screens to check for common diseases such as diabetes, thyroid disorders, kidney disease and other metabolic problems. Early detection can increase an animal’s life span and prolong their health.

Complete Blood Count (CBC): This screen can help detect disorders of the red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets. A CBC may detect early signs of anemia, inflammation, infection and certain types of neoplasia.

Chemistry Panel: The chemistry panel looks at various protein and enzyme levels as well as basic electrolytes in the blood. It is a broad panel that looks at several organ values including: kidney, liver and pancreas. Many disease processes can cause increases in one or more of these values early on.

Thyroid and Cholesterol Level: This tests looks for thyroid and cholesterol levels in the blood. Levels that are too high or too low can indicate disease and are common in cats and dogs respectively.
