Rapid growth by IDEXX Laboratories generated the need for a new Reference Laboratory in San Diego County. Villarruel Architects was selected by IDEXX to design a new Lab in San Diego, CA. The new lab is 2,000 square feet containing state of the art medical equipment. IDEXX provides a full range of diagnostic testing services to veterinarians. Laboratory staff includes pathologist, internal medicine specialist, couriers, specimen processors and technicians. Couriers transport blood, fluid and skin samples to this Laboratory. Team members then analyze the sample and fax or electronically transmit results to the veterinarians.
