2 Our mission is to provide the most accurate diagnosis with the fastest turnaround times, by equipping our service with the most advanced veterinary diagnostics technology. Asia Veterinary Diagnostics works only with highly experienced boarded or double boarded veterinary pathologists, and thanks to our digitizer system experts from all over the world can discuss the cases and provide second opinions concurrently. 1

3 Welcome Since our inception in 2013, Hong Kong Veterinary Diagnostics Centre has quickly grown to be the leading provider of veterinary specialty diagnostic services in Hong Kong. More recently we have expanded our service to mainland China and Singapore and rebranded as Asia Veterinary Diagnostics. Our organization is founded on the principle of providing diagnostic services to veterinarians, by veterinarians, all of whom are boarded or double boarded veterinary pathologists, and are supported by a global network of second tier pathologists who provide second opinion and additional readings for special requests. We joined the UK NEQAS external Quality Control Histopathology and Cytology schemes, in order to provide nothing but excellence for our histopathologists, allowing us to deliver the best diagnosis for our clients. AVD is your laboratory and our team is very much looking forward to hearing your ongoing feedback, so that we can continue to provide you with everything you need as your pathology service.
