Pre-Visit and Post-Visit Solutions for Veterinary Practices

To ease in-clinic workloads and enhance client experiences, MySimplePetLab delivers unique testing solutions for pre-visit, post-visit and virtual care. Here are a few examples. 

  • Pre-Visit Workflow:

    • Client schedules a vet visit.

    • Clinic orders a test kit for home delivery.

    • Client collects and sends the sample to the lab.

    • Results are available before the visit, enabling the vet to make informed decisions during the appointment.

  • Post-Treatment 'Recheck' Workflow:

    • During a visit, the vet sends home a recheck test kit (stool, ear, skin) along with treatment and instructions on when to use the recheck test kit.

    •  On the prescribed day the client collects the sample, activates the test, and completes a symptom survey at home and mails to MySimplePetLab.

    • Test results and symptoms are shared with the client and vet, helping determine next steps and if a follow-up visit is necessary.

  • Chronic Symptom Monitoring

    • Patient with a chronic condition prone to frequent ear or skin infections can purchase test kits from their veterinarian to keep on hand for home testing. 

    • Having a test kit on hand helps pet parents catch emerging issues early without waiting on a vet visit. 

    • Results share directly to the vet clinic and can be managed with virtual follow up by the veterinary technician or veterinarian.
