Veterinary Diagnostics & Testing

On-site blood collections

Highton Veterinary Clinic has an on-site Idexx Blood Machine – we can collect a blood sample from your pet and have the results within the hour.

Changes in blood parameters can occur before there is physical evidence of clinical disease and before your pet exhibits signs of a problem.

Our total body function blood test provides an extensive analysis of internal organ function, which we use to evaluate your pet’s overall health status.

We recommend blood tests prior to anaesthesia or surgery to ensure that there is no underlying disease. If there are any abnormalities noted we may have to adjust our treatment regimens for each patient for a safe anaesthetic.

We provide the same exceptional experience at both clinics.

What an experience, amazing ♡
From walking in the door...to keeping my best friend in great health. Thanks Vets of Geelong for the level of care, and to Josie and James especially for their genuine care and empathy toward our family. #memorable

- Scott Jensen

Can not recommend more highly. The guys at reception are lovely, and the Vets & nurses really know their stuff. Our pets love them too ❤️ Prices are extremely competitive also, thanks for looking after our little ones!

- Anais Nin

Visits to the vet can sometimes be a difficult experience, but Vets of Geelong (Geelong West and Highton) make it that little bit easier. Very friendly staff and welcoming.
I really appreciate the follow up calls the next day - a nice bonus touch!

- David Keele

Have been to both Highton and Geelong West Veterinary Clinics and both have been outstanding with their friendliness, care and compassion towards both patient and clients. I was very satisfied with the care/treatment my animals received. I just received a follow up letter asking how my Dog is doing and some goodies/vouchers. How lovely

- Olivia Addison

Very happy with the service provided and would highly recommend the Geelong West vet to anyone who needs any form of pet care. Kind and caring staff who take pride in making you and for me my cat feel safe . The after care support is excellent aswell.

- Craig Smith

Our main vet Annie has looked after our boy Badger so well along with the rest of the team. They've really brought him so much happiness in his old age.
Love the ID tags as well, brilliant idea.
