Diagnostic Expertise — Dr. Rishikesh Pokale
Companion-animal diagnostics for Nashik
Dr. Rishikesh Pokale serves as PVD India’s veterinary partner in Nashik, Maharashtra’s second-largest city and a rapidly growing hub for pet ownership. With a master’s degree in veterinary science and a specialisation in companion animals, he bridges the gap between Nashik’s expanding pet-owning community and advanced diagnostic services that were previously hard to access locally.
His role is particularly valuable in a city that combines urban pet culture with significant agricultural activity in its surrounding districts, giving him a varied and demanding caseload.
Genetic, molecular and clinical testing for pets
Dr. Pokale handles sample collection across a broad range of companion-animal diagnostics: blood, swab and tissue collection for dogs and cats; DNA and genetic testing for breed identification and parentage; and RT-PCR sample preparation for critical viral diseases such as Parvovirus, Distemper and FIP. This breadth allows Nashik pet owners to access sophisticated diagnostics without travelling to a metro city.
Clinic-integrated and owner-friendly
Dr. Pokale provides clinic-based sample collection for partner veterinary practices in Nashik, integrating PVD diagnostics smoothly into existing treatment pathways. He also counsels pet owners on which tests are appropriate and what results mean, helping families make informed decisions about their animals’ care.
Fast turnaround for time-sensitive cases
Many companion-animal conditions — especially viral infections in young animals — are time-critical. Dr. Pokale coordinates closely with the PVD laboratory to ensure 24-hour result delivery for urgent cases, so treatment can begin without delay across Nashik city, Igatpuri, Sinnar and Malegaon.

How to book a test in Nashik
Booking takes minutes. Call or WhatsApp PVD on 9082245254, or use the contact form, and tell us the animal, the species and the test you need — or simply describe the symptoms and our team will advise on the right diagnostics.

Areas served around Nashik
Dr. Rishikesh Pokale supports PVD diagnostics across Nashik city, Nashik Rural, Igatpuri, Sinnar, Malegaon. Within the core service area, doorstep sample collection is designed to be fast and convenient, and for locations further afield PVD operates a courier-based pickup model so that distance never prevents access to quality testing. Wherever you are in the region, samples are transported under cold-chain conditions to PVD's partner laboratories for processing.
What to expect from your small animal & pet diagnostics report
Every sample collected is processed at a partner laboratory — Chaitanya Laboratory or Verity Vet Laboratories — and reviewed by a qualified specialist before the report is released; no result leaves without expert sign-off. Most clinical pathology and molecular results are delivered within 24 to 48 hours via WhatsApp and email, with histopathology taking 5 to 7 days. Free follow-up is included, so you and your veterinarian can discuss the findings and decide on the right course of action with confidence.
Why a local PVD partner matters
Diagnostics work best when the person collecting the sample is trusted and close at hand. As a PVD partner in Nashik, Rishikesh combines local presence and marathi, hindi, english language communication with the full backing of PVD's laboratory network and specialist team. That means you get the convenience and trust of a local professional together with the scientific rigour of an IVRI grant-supported diagnostic service — the best of both worlds for your animal's health.
Transparent pricing and accessible diagnostics
PVD keeps veterinary diagnostics affordable for both rural and urban clients, with clear pricing and no hidden charges — doorstep sample collection within the core service area carries no pickup fee, and herd-health packages are priced to make proactive screening realistic for ordinary farmers. There is no minimum order value, so whether you need a single test for one pet or comprehensive screening for an entire herd, Rishikesh and the PVD team can help. Affordable, accessible diagnostics are central to PVD's mission of ensuring no animal goes undiagnosed simply because quality testing was out of reach in Nashik or its surrounding region.
