Diagnostics - Vet in Anchorage | Highland Animal Clinic

See Beneath The Surface

Advanced diagnostics saves lives.

Because many diseases take their toll beneath the surface and our pets don’t always tell us what’s wrong, Highland Animal Clinic utilizes a variety of diagnostic tools to help our veterinarians diagnose illness, identify potential problems before they become a serious issue, allow early detection of disease for prompt intervention, often decreasing overall cost of care, and establish an excellent set of baseline values to refer to should your pet become ill in the future.
