Ulysses Veterinary Clinics - Blood Tests

Ulysses Veterinary Clinics Cairns Blood Tests [Clinical Pathology]

Clinical pathology involves the laboratory evaluation of blood, bodily fluids or body tissues in order to identify existing disease. Common laboratory tests include blood chemistries, complete blood counts, blood clotting times, urinalysis, faecal tests, biopsy examination, cultures and infectious disease testing.

Our Cairns veterinary clinics are equipped with an in-house laboratory that allows our veterinarians to quickly perform many of these diagnostic tests to achieve an accurate and rapid diagnosis. This is especially important in very ill animals and those requiring immediate or emergency treatment.

Our in-house laboratory can provide results on the same day. Complicated testing may take longer, especially if the sample is sent to an external laboratory. External laboratory results are usually obtained within 12-24 hours for blood results or up to 14 days for biopsy results, depending on the nature of the test being performed. Your veterinarian will contact you with your pet’s laboratory results.

Thank you to Dr Jo and nurse Sofie for the care, compassion and respect you showed our elderly dog and family when it was time to say goodbye. It was one of the hardest days we've faced as pet owners, but your kindness made a world of difference. The flowers we received afterwards were such a thoughtful and touching gesture. We are truly grateful for the support and professionalism shown by everyone at Ulysses Veterinary Clinic.

Response from the owner: Thank you so much for your kind review Andrew, our team are incredibly appreciative of the time you've taken with this. Mac was a beautiful boy, he will never be forgotten 💓

Very thankful that Ulysses offered a same day appointment when my dog was unwell and no other vets were available. The reception nurses werehelpful and friendly.

Dr Yuka runs an exceptional Puppy School; extremely knowledgeable, using positive reinforcement...she has a degree in behavioural science and the classes are tiny...perfect for baby puppies to learn and socialise; highly recommend...she is kind and friendly...my puppy had a wonderful experience...l recently took my other 7 year old dog to the Ulysses Whitfield clinic during an emergency and was very impressed with their service, manner and thorough professionalism...They are not my usual vet clinic as we are on the South side of Cairns; but I highly recommend them :)

Sara Millard

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Outstanding care and genuine compassionI cannot recommend Ulysses Veterinary Clinic highly enough, and especially Dr Jo Sussex.Dr Jo went above and beyond in treating my dog, Bear. Her care was outstanding, and it was clear from the very beginning that she genuinely cares deeply about her patients. Her communication was excellent throughout the entire process—clear, thoughtful, and reassuring.What truly set her apart was that she personally contacted me to check on Bear’s wellbeing after his treatment. That level of care and follow‑up is rare and means so much to me.

Response from the owner: Thank you so much for your kind review, Sara. We're so happy to hear that Bear is doing well!Dr Jo will be so touched by your words. She cares so deeply for her patients, we're so proud to have her on our team! Thank you for trusting us with Bear’s care, we look forward to seeing you both again soon, but not too soon 😊❤️
