Your veterinarian has recommended some lab work or other diagnostics. Since different tests have different preparation requirements, we will be calling you tomorrow with some important information on how to prepare for your pet’s visit. Be on the lookout for our call!
If your pet eats prior to providing a blood sample for it’s diagnostic tests, it can impact the accuracy of the test results. Fasting (withholding food) is not essential but it might save you a trip back to the Wayland Animal Clinic. We will let you know if your pet’s visit requires fasting.
In the event your pet’s diagnostics require fasting prior to your visit, please refer to these guidelines:
To get the most out of your visit, take a moment to think about your pet’s medical history and current condition. Note anything out of the ordinary – for example changes to eating, sleeping, urination or behavior.
Bring a list of all medications that your pet is currently taking (including over-the-counter meds, supplements or anything else taken on a regular basis). Please note the doses and frequency given. Feel free to bring in the boxes/bottles/vials if easier.
For safety, please bring your pet in a closed cat carrier or your dog on a strong leash as appropriate.
