When your pet isn’t feeling well, waiting for answers can be one of the hardest parts.
At Animal Hospital of Nicholasville, our in-house laboratory allows us to run many diagnostic tests right here in the hospital—so we can get the information we need quickly and begin care without unnecessary delays.
Faster Answers, Sooner Care
With in-house testing, many results are available the same day—often within minutes. This allows us to:
-
Identify concerns earlier
-
Begin treatment sooner
-
Adjust care in real time based on your pet’s needs
For pets who are sick or not acting like themselves, this can make a meaningful difference in both comfort and outcome.
Comprehensive Diagnostic Support
Our laboratory allows us to perform a wide range of tests, including:
-
Heartworm testing
-
Feline leukemia (FeLV) and FIV testing
-
Bloodwork to evaluate organ function and overall health
-
Additional screening and diagnostic tests as needed
When more specialized testing is required, we also partner with trusted external laboratories to ensure your pet receives the most complete evaluation possible.
Clarity When You Need It Most
Our goal is to take the uncertainty out of your pet’s care.
By combining in-house diagnostics with thorough exams and thoughtful medical decision-making, we’re able to give you clearer answers, faster—and help your pet start feeling better as soon as possible.
If your pet isn’t feeling well or you have concerns about their health, give us a call at (859) 887-8086. We’re here to help you get answers and move forward with confidence.
