Pricing
We understand that budgeting for your pet’s care is an important consideration, and we strive to offer transparent pricing. Below are some example costs for various medical services. Please note that all prices are subject to change without prior notice.
Vaccination Policy
Our vaccination protocols are guided by state regulations and AAHA-recommended standards to ensure your pet’s health and safety. Vaccine packages are available for healthy pets only and cannot be customized—individual items may not be removed, and choosing services à la carte will not qualify for the package discount. If medical concerns arise, our veterinarian may recommend postponing or modifying vaccinations to prioritize your pet’s health. All pets must be current on their rabies vaccination to be seen at Swaim’s Veterinary Clinic.

In House Bloodwork $135-$160
We offer multiple bloodwork panels to evaluate for infection, blood loss, clotting disorders, organ function, and other common health concerns. Bloodwork can also help identify possible toxin exposure. Pricing varies based on the specific panel and the level of diagnostic detail needed.
Fecal Exam $31
Microscopic examination of your pet’s stool allows us to evaluate the gastrointestinal biome and detect intestinal parasites—many of which are zoonotic, meaning they can be transmitted to humans. This test is offered at a standard price for all pets.
Canine Heartworm/Tick Disease Test $50
Heartworms are transmitted by mosquitoes and can infect the heart and lungs, potentially leading to heart failure and death if left untreated. Ticks carry several bacterial diseases that may cause infection, blood loss, joint pain, paralysis, and other serious health issues. Standard price for all pets.
Radiographs (X-Rays) $212
Radiographs (X-rays) help us evaluate for foreign material in the GI tract, masses in the abdomen or chest, heart disease, urinary stones, bone fractures, certain soft tissue injuries, draining tracts, and other anatomical concerns. Standard price includes three views for all pets.

Urine testing allows us to detect bacteria or bladder stones, evaluate and monitor diabetes and kidney disease, and assess overall bladder health. Pricing may vary based on laboratory analysis and interpretation.
Feline Leukemia/Feline Aids/Heartworm Test $58
Feline leukemia and feline immunodeficiency virus are spread through saliva and are highly contagious between cats. These immunosuppressive diseases weaken the immune system, increasing the risk of infections, organ dysfunction, and certain cancers, ultimately shortening a cat’s lifespan. Heartworm disease, transmitted by mosquitoes, can cause asthma-like symptoms in cats and may be life-threatening. Standard price for all pets.
Thyroid Levels $70-$200
Hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism are common endocrine disorders in both dogs and cats. Because the thyroid gland plays a key role in regulating metabolism and overall body function, imbalances can lead to a wide range of symptoms, including secondary infections and organ dysfunction. Pricing depends on your pet’s specific symptoms and any additional diagnostics or treatments that may be required.
Ear Infection Cytology $35
