In house laboratory

King Street Veterinary Hospital is fully equipped to perform a variety of in-house laboratory testing. This includes:

  • Cytology to identify ear and skin infections.
  • Fine needle aspiration and cytology to identify cancerous lumps.
  • Gram stain for identification of bacteria and fungal organisms.
  • Faecal floatation and smear for the detection of parasites.
  • Complete urine examination.
  • Skin scraping for the detection of mites.
  • Heartworm testing in dogs.
  • FIV testing in cats.
  • Biochemistry and haematology blood testing
  • Cage-side blood clot testing for coagulopathies (rat bait ingestion, snake bite)
  • Snake venom detection kits
  • Titre testing for vaccination requirements
  • And much more!

Our blood analysis machine also allows us to perform rapid blood testing while you are waiting. This is particularly useful in establishing a prompt diagnosis in case of illness or emergency. It is also used to perform “wellness testing” in geriatric pets and to perform routine pre-anesthetic blood analysis prior to surgery. It tells us how your pet feels from the inside out!

What our clients are saying about us

  • We have entrusted Mr Parker with the wonderful staff for puppy training, routine checks and his fair share of clinical issues

    My daughter and I moved to Murwillumbah in late 2013.  The day we arrived in our new home was the day we met our beautiful new puppy Mr Parker.  A gift from my sister.
    We have taken Mr Parker to King Street Veterinary Hospital since then.
    We have entrusted Mr Parker with the wonderful staff for puppy training, routine checks and his fair share of clinical issues.  
    Last year Mr Parker was diagnosed with a terminal condition but lives a vibrant and otherwise healthy life because of the love and care he gets from Sam and all of the KSVH team.

  • Kings Street Veterinary Hospital is my go to practice of choice.

    As a breeder of pedigree cats I have been taking my animals to King Street Veterinary Hospital for over 15 years now. I have always found the Staff to be helpful, friendly, polite and caring, the Vets kind, knowledgeable and experienced when caring for my babies. In times of worry / loss of an animal, the level of sympathy and empathy has been most comforting.
    Over the years I have seen the practice evolve and improve into the modern well run facility it is today.
    Kings Street Veterinary Hospital is my go to practice of choice.
