NovaVet Diagnostics is committed to providing professional diagnostic pathology services to the veterinary, paraveterinary and research community. We are a non-corporatized boutique-style laboratory with a strong focus on personal involvement, professional connection, and accountability. If you visit our laboratory, you will notice a collegiate atmosphere amongst the staff. This is the foundation for solid and supportive relationships with our clients, driven by the philosophy that strong professional relationships facilitate the best outcome for animals of all species.

NovaVet is an independent veterinary diagnostic pathology laboratory centrally located for efficient service of veterinary clinics in the Perth metro region. NovaVet is wholly veterinary owned, and the directors have in excess of 30 years of experience in diagnostic pathology. Both directors have spent time in clinical practice and retain strong ties to the veterinary profession. This insight has evolved into a desire to deliver pathology services differently, allowing clinics to select the way they order pathology services, from ordering a courier, to tracking a sample progress within the laboratory and requesting additional tests. Our mission is to provide clinically relevant information in a consistent and user-friendly format so that veterinarians and clinic staff can concentrate on patient care.

NovaVet offers an extensive test menu. Besides the traditional tests and panels, we offer a selection of minimum database panels, designed in consultation with specialists to optimise your diagnostic potential and allow for a cost-effective approach to complex problems. As an independent laboratory, we can consider specific requests and will accommodate personalised panels and the development of new tests where possible.

While our professional team is the heart of our business, we have invested in automation wherever possible, to allow for consistent quality. For tests referred externally, we have selected high-quality institutions, preferably with a solid veterinary footprint.
