Radiographs (X-rays) For Dogs and Cats

Is your pet in pain or showing signs of discomfort? At Pet Urgent Care, we use state-of-the-art X-ray technology that provides immediate insights for an accurate diagnosis and an effective treatment plan. 

Why We Use X-rays

X-rays for pets offer a window into their internal health that is non-invasive and incredibly informative. This diagnostic tool is indispensable for our veterinarians, allowing them to detect fractures, identify foreign bodies, diagnose diseases in their early stages, and monitor the progression of various conditions. The ability to view an animal's bones, organs, and other internal structures in detail provides critical information for making accurate diagnoses and formulating effective treatment plans. Furthermore, dental X-rays are pivotal in dental care, revealing hidden problems beneath the gums that could lead to serious health issues if left untreated (although we do not provide dental services).  By leveraging the power of X-rays, we can ensure pets receive the most appropriate and timely care, leading to better health outcomes and a quicker return to their playful, happy selves.

Urgent Care X-rays vs Emergency Care X-rays

Choosing Pet Urgent Care for emergency X-rays over a traditional emergency animal hospital offers significant advantages, particularly in terms of cost and wait times. At Pet Urgent Care, our focus is on providing prompt, high-quality diagnostic services without the hefty price tag often associated with emergency hospitals. We understand that emergencies are stressful enough without the added burden of long waiting periods and exorbitant fees. Our facility is equipped with advanced X-ray technology, enabling us to deliver fast and accurate results, ensuring your pet receives the urgent care they need swiftly. By opting for Pet Urgent Care, pet owners can rest assured that they are not only making a financially savvy choice but also minimizing the time their beloved pets wait before receiving essential care, ultimately leading to a quicker diagnosis and start of treatment.

If we determine that your pet requires more extensive care than we are equipped to provide, assessment and stabilization will be offered as well as directing you and your pet to a full-service ER or referral hospital depending on diagnostic needs.
