Diagnostic Testing in Boulder
Expert diagnostic testing in Boulder. Licensed, insured, upfront pricing.
A diagnosis that takes a week to arrive is a week your pet spends untreated. Pearl Street Animal Hospital runs bloodwork, urinalysis, digital X-ray, and ultrasound in-house, so most results are ready the same visit — a doctor can explain what they mean and start treatment before you’ve even left the building. When a case calls for a specialist read or a test we don’t run in-house, we say so plainly and get the sample or referral moving the same day.

- In-house ultrasound for abdominal and some cardiac imaging
- Same-visit treatment decisions instead of a week spent waiting on an outside lab
- Honest referral to a specialist when a case needs equipment we don’t have
- Copies of imaging and results added to your file or sent to a specialist automatically
What To Expect
How the visit goes
The question we’re answering
A doctor examines your pet first and tells you plainly what a given test is likely to show — never testing just to test.
Sample or imaging, same visit
Bloodwork, X-ray, or ultrasound runs in-house while you wait, in most cases without a second appointment.
Results explained in the room
A doctor walks you through what the results mean and what they change about the plan — not a portal notification.
Treatment starts today
When results point to a clear next step, we start it the same visit instead of scheduling a second trip.

Questions
Questions about diagnostic testing
How much does a visit cost?
The exam fee is quoted when you book, and anything beyond the exam — labs, imaging, treatment — comes as a written estimate you approve before we proceed. You will never learn a price for the first time at checkout.
Can you see my pet today?
Usually, yes. We hold same-day urgent slots open every morning, and most urgent calls are seen the same day. Call before you drive over — our team triages by phone, and if your pet needs an emergency hospital instead, we’ll say so honestly and call ahead for you.
Can you get records from my previous vet?
Yes — with your okay we request them before your first appointment, so your first visit starts from your pet’s full history instead of a blank chart. We don’t re-run tests you’ve already paid for unless something has changed.
