What is Veterinary Internal Medicine?

Comprehensive In-House Diagnostics

One of the biggest benefits of internal medicine at NVC NASA is our ability to perform fast, accurate testing right here in our Webster clinic. This includes:

• Blood and urine tests to assess organ function and rule out infection
• Digital radiography (X-rays) and ultrasound to visualize internal structures
• Cytology and biopsy sampling for tumors or unexplained swelling
• Specialty lab testing when advanced or rare conditions are suspected

What Happens After a Diagnosis?

Once we have a diagnosis, our veterinary team will meet with you to review all test results in clear, easy-to-understand terms. We’ll explain your pet’s condition, what it means for their daily life, and answer any questions you may have. From there, we’ll develop a custom treatment plan that may include medication, diet changes, lifestyle adjustments, or ongoing monitoring. We’ll continue to support your pet with regular check-ins and follow-up testing to make sure their treatment is effective and their condition is well managed.

Collaborative Care, Local Support

Our veterinary team in Webster collaborates closely with other NVC locations when needed. Most internal medicine care can be provided in-house, but if your pet needs advanced surgery or imaging, we can coordinate seamless referrals to trusted partners, like our NVC Nederland location.
