Diagnostics

At Animal Medical Center of the Lowcountry, our goal is keeping your pet happy and healthy. Thanks to modern diagnostics and our on-site laboratory, we're able to do just that for sick or injured pets.

Our facility features a laboratory that allows us to evaluate your pet’s health using a variety of advanced testing procedures, to accurately diagnose common conditions and find a solution or treatment as quickly as possible. These quick and precise tests reveal vital information about your pet's organ function, health, and overall well-being with same-day results.  The lab at AMC performs tests such as:

• Wellness blood panels
• Coagulation profiles
• Routine heartworm testing
• Fecal parasite testing
• Urinalysis

Additionally, we offer Cytology, which is the study of cells, their structure, function, and behavior.  Cytology is a simple and minimally invasive test that we can use to help diagnose common issues such as infections, skin issues, and lumps or masses quickly and accurately.  In our lab at AMC, we perform the following cytologies:

• Stool samples
• Skin scrapes
• Ear swabs
• Blood smears
• Fine Needle Aspirates

When you bring your pet to AMC, you won’t have to worry about waiting days or even weeks to get your pet’s test results—our in-house laboratory will help us diagnose and treat your pet’s condition on the same day!
