Optimizing Animal Health with Next-Level Diagnostics

We provide the technology to grow, the education to excel, and the support to sustain. Elevate your practice.

A new approach to veterinary care

Proactive Care
Early Detection
Client Partnership
Today’s veterinary care space has become increasingly complex, costly, and stressful. Success in the face of these conditions requires a new approach; one that increases the value of our services, encourages collaboration from pet owners, and culminates in better care for more of our beloved companion animals.  
STEP Animal Health supports that evolution by helping practices strengthen what they already do best while removing barriers to robust prevention and early detection. 
Central to our approach are innovative, affordable, and highly sensitive in-clinic blood biomarkers that enable teams to diagnose chronic diseases we see in practice every day at their earliest stages. Earlier insight supports a more powerful model of proactive care, better monitoring, and stronger client engagement. With accurate, affordable quantitative tools accessible to more pet parents, practices can expand testing, increase compliance, and intervene sooner, when treatment is most effective. Affordable options and improved medicine deliver higher value to clients and better care for pets.  
We combine practical technology, research-backed education, and ongoing partnership to help veterinary teams enhance care, build deeper client trust, and continue to lead the future of modern veterinary medicine. 
The opportunity is here; will you seize it?

Where Research Meets Clinical Practice

  • New biomarkers promise to transform veterinary practice through rapid diagnosis of diseases, effective monitoring of animal health and improved welfare and production efficiency.
    Tharangani R. W. Perera et al. (2022)
    The Future of Biomarkers in Veterinary Medicine: Emerging Approaches and Associated Challenges.
  • The application of these biomarkers has improved the diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring of pathologies in veterinary medicine.
    Muñoz, A., & Kuleš, J. (Eds.). (2025).
    Biomarkers of health and disease in veterinary science. Frontiers in Veterinary Science.
  • The discovery and evaluation of biomarkers should hopefully improve our diagnostic capabilities and ultimately management and quality and quantity of life for our patients.
    Dr. Joe Bartges, DVM, PhD, DACVIM
    A noted veterinary internist and professor, Dr. Bartges has spoken publicly about the promise of biomarker research in improving diagnostic capabilities.
  • Biomarkers are helpful tools to detect underlying disease processes but are not typically standalone tests. A single biomarker test rarely gives the complete clinical picture.
    Dr. Mark A. Oyama, DVM, MSCE, DACVIM (Cardiology)
    A board-certified veterinary cardiologist and professor, Dr. Oyama emphasizes the clinical utility and future promise of biomarkers in improving treatment and prognosis.
