THE IDEXX Advantage

What is the IDEXX Advantage?

In our bid to offer you the Complete Diagnostic Solution for your pathology, IDEXX offers follow up services at a significant cost advantage for a large range of our In-Clinic diagnostic tests, Rapid Assay, and Reference Laboratory. In many cases, it is now cheaper to perform your tests in-clinic and send off a follow up test in the lab than it is to simply send your pathology request to the lab in the first case!

Where would I use this service?

These services are designed to assist your comprehensive diagnosis only when you really need it. Combining the convenience of in-clinic technology with ISO and NATA Accredited Reference Laboratory services and our Internal Medicine Consultant and pathologists, this is the IDEXX Advantage.
