On-Site Imaging & Diagnostics in Studio City

Good treatment starts with a clear picture. We have on-site ultrasound and X-ray, plus laser therapy used in rehabilitation, so we can diagnose and plan without sending you across town.

When your pet needs answers, on-site imaging means a faster diagnosis and one less trip. We use our diagnostics to confirm what's wrong, plan the right surgery, and support recovery, all under one roof.

What we offer on-site

Having diagnostics in-house means we can move from question to answer to plan without the delays of sending samples or images elsewhere:

  • X-ray, fast, detailed images of bones, chest, and abdomen
  • Ultrasound, a real-time look at soft tissue, organs, and the abdomen
  • Laser therapy, used as part of rehabilitation plans

Why on-site matters

When imaging lives in the same building as your surgeon, you skip the referrals, the second appointments, and the waiting. We can often diagnose and plan treatment in a single visit, which matters most when something is urgent. It also means one Studio City address instead of a tour of imaging centers across Los Angeles.

Working with your vet

If your primary veterinarian sent you for imaging, we coordinate directly with them and share what we find, so your pet's whole care team stays on the same page.

What about cost?

Imaging cost depends on what your pet needs, and we'll give you the estimate before we proceed. Because diagnostics are often the first step toward treatment, we keep them straightforward and offer financing where it helps.

Common questions

Do I need a referral for imaging?

Not necessarily. If your regular vet has recommended imaging, we'll coordinate with them, but you can also come to us directly if something's worrying you. Send a consult request and we'll point you the right way.

Can you do same-day diagnostics?

Often, yes, especially for urgent cases. Tell us what's going on in your consult request and we'll let you know how quickly we can get your pet in.

What is laser therapy used for?

Laser therapy is used as part of rehabilitation plans, most often during recovery. It's non-invasive and painless for your pet, and we'll tell you at the consult whether it makes sense for your pet's plan.

Do you offer payment plans?

Yes. We partner with Cherry and CareCredit so cost isn't a barrier to getting answers.
