Welcome to Westside Family Pet Clinic, where our experienced veterinary team provides advanced ultrasound diagnostics for your pet’s health and comfort.
Ultrasound is a safe, non-invasive imaging technique that uses sound waves to create real-time images of your pet’s internal organs. It allows our veterinarians to see soft tissues and structures that X-rays may not reveal, including the heart, liver, kidneys, and abdominal organs. This advanced diagnostic tool helps us diagnose conditions such as tumors, bladder stones, heart disease, and pregnancy, as well as monitor ongoing health issues.
At Westside Family Pet Clinic, our team uses ultrasound to quickly provide answers when your pet isn’t feeling well. Early diagnosis leads to more effective treatment and a better outcome for your pet. Ultrasound is pain-free and does not require sedation in most cases, making it a gentle way to get the information needed to keep your pet healthy and happy.

Our veterinary team ensures a smooth, stress-free ultrasound experience for your pet. Here’s what you can expect during your visit:
Our veterinarians begin by discussing your pet’s medical history and current symptoms. Understanding your concerns helps us tailor the ultrasound exam to your pet’s specific needs and ensures we focus on the right areas.
Most pets remain awake and relaxed during the procedure. We may gently shave a small area of fur for optimal imaging. Your pet will be comfortably positioned on a padded table, and our team will keep them calm throughout the exam.
Using our advanced ultrasound equipment, our veterinarians carefully examine the targeted organs. We can watch how organs move and blood flows in real time, allowing for immediate, accurate assessment and diagnosis.
After the ultrasound, our team will explain the findings and answer your questions. If further testing or treatment is needed, we’ll discuss options and create a personalized care plan for your pet.

Ultrasound plays a vital role in identifying medical conditions early, guiding treatment decisions, and providing peace of mind. At Westside Family Pet Clinic, we use ultrasound to quickly uncover the root of your pet’s symptoms, so we can begin the right care without delay.
Ultrasound helps detect issues like tumors, organ disease, or internal injuries before symptoms become severe. Early detection increases the chances of successful treatment and a faster recovery.
This diagnostic imaging is gentle and non-invasive, so your pet experiences little to no discomfort. Most pets do not need sedation, making the process easy and safe for both pets and owners.
Ultrasound allows our veterinarians to monitor ongoing conditions and track how treatments are working. It’s also used to safely guide procedures such as biopsies when necessary.
Some symptoms may indicate your pet could benefit from an ultrasound. If you notice any of the following, contact our team for guidance:
If your pet is showing these signs, prompt evaluation is important. Reach out to our veterinary team to discuss whether an ultrasound is the right next step.
Ultrasound is performed as needed based on your pet’s health and symptoms. It is not a routine test but is recommended when your veterinarian suspects internal issues that require deeper investigation. Some pets with chronic conditions may need periodic ultrasounds to monitor progress. Our team will recommend the appropriate timing for repeat ultrasounds based on your pet’s individual needs. If you have concerns about your pet’s health, schedule a consultation for personalized guidance.
