A Complete Medical Assessment Can Improve Your Pet’s Health
A complete medical assessment can help improve your pet’s health by:
- Addressing current symptoms, medical problems or conditions
- Identifying new medical problems or conditions

At Martindale Animal Clinic our medical assessment begins with a thorough physical examination. We carefully examine your pet’s:
- Eyes

- Gastrointestinal system
- Skeletal system
During this physical examination we are looking for any abnormalities. If necessary, blood tests can be performed to assess the proper functioning of your pet’s:
- Kidneys
- Liver
- Pancreas
- Endocrine system including the thyroid gland and adrenal glands
If required, blood tests and/or urine tests can assess the status of your pet’s:
- White blood cells
- Red blood cells
- Blood sugar levels
- Electrolyte levels
Depending on your pet’s current condition and health we may recommend further diagnostic tests such as:
- Radiography (X-rays)
- Endoscopy (internal scoping)
- Ultrasound
