For Excellence in Exotics....choose EVDS
 
At EVDS we know the challenges and intricacies involved in the health and diagnostics of exotic and zoological species. That's why, as well as offering routine small animal laboratory services, we specialise in laboratory diagnostics for exotics and zoo animals.

Our laboratory focuses on techniques and methodologies specific for exotic and zoological animals and our pathology support is second to none. Two of our leading veterinary team, Nick Carmichael and Andrew Torrance, are recognised specialists in the field of veterinary clinical pathology and John Chitty offers vast knowledge and experience in zoological pathology.

Through EVDS we offer both a wide range of individual tests and specific profiles aimed to help with the diagnosis of rabbit, rodent and small animal disease.
Listed below are some of the most popularly requested tests but please see our pricelist for a full list or contact us if you can't find what you need.
