Advanced Veterinary Imaging & Testing, All in One Place

When your pet isn’t feeling well, every moment counts. At JM Ritchie Veterinary Hospital, we offer in-house veterinary diagnostics so we can evaluate your pet’s health and begin treatment without delay. From illness to injury, our team uses advanced tools and clear communication to guide your pet’s care every step of the way.

Our clinic features digital pet X-rays, ultrasound imaging for dogs and cats, and a fully equipped in-house lab. That means fewer referrals and faster answers—so you can spend less time waiting and more time helping your pet feel better.
