DPC – The Davie Veterinary Clinic With Comprehensive Diagnostic and Lab Service Onsite

At our Davie veterinary clinic we understand that when your pet is ill or injured you want to ease their discomfort as quickly as you can. That's one of the reasons why we stay open seven days a week offering a full line of veterinary care including surgery. Our veterinarians have the finest reputations practicing in Florida and the support services that assist them are onsite and comprehensive.

Those onsite support services, state-of-the-art diagnostic tools and a full service lab are the reasons our vets can quickly diagnose a condition and begin treatment. Our goal is to provide the best veterinary care in the Davie area and we believe that our comprehensive approach to veterinary care is the best way to achieve that objective.

Saving Time Hastens the Healing

Outsourcing lab work is just as common in veterinary care. Having our own lab that can do blood work, heartworm testing etc. and state-of-the-art diagnostic equipment like digital x-ray and our new ultrasound machine gives our vets the information they need to start corrective treatment almost immediately. In addition, all information including test results, radiographs and sonograms are electronically added to your pet's file for future reference.

If your pet's treatment includes a medication or special diet our full service onsite pharmacy is fully stocked and our online veterinary pharmacy can ship to your home.

We care about your pets like they were our own. We are staffed by talented vets and technicians who are all pet owners themselves. We love what we do and want your dog or cat to receive the same kind of care we give our own four legged friends. Read more:

Veterinary Clinic Davie : Ultrasound scan : Sonogram

Veterinary Clinic in Davie Announces New Ultrasound Diagnostic Capability

DPC Veterinary Hospital in Davie is happy to announce that we now have the ability to provide your pet with ultrasound diagnostic exams right here in the clinic. In the past we have had to refer cases to another hospital for the scans or wait for an opening in the schedule of an on call technician. However, DPC has invested in the latest veterinary ultrasound technology and can now conduct the exams in-house without delay. As always, the scans are read by a veterinary radiologist.

The addition of the new ultrasound means that the diagnostic process will be significantly accelerated and that our veterinarian will have the information s/he needs to treat your pet much faster. We've always been committed to providing the finest in veterinary care and the addition of the ultrasound technology is another example of that commitment.

 Taking a Look Inside Your Four Legged Friend

If you are wondering what the difference is between ultrasound and sonogram is the answer is "nothing." Ultrasound is the non-invasive, painless application of a cyclic sound pressure. A sonogram is the process that records the results of the ultrasound and creates a "picture." A common application in humans is to do an ultrasound scan of a mother-to-be to get a picture (sonogram) of the fetus to determine gender.

For the most part, the same benefits that ultrasound scans provide humans apply to animals as well. It's an easy, painless, low stress method to scan internal organs to assist in diagnosis.

An ultrasound scan can assist in detecting a problem and then again to see if the problem has been completely corrected after treatment.

The ultrasound is an excellent diagnostic tool and we are delighted that we can now offer scans to our Davie area pet owners in a timely fashion. Read more:
