Ellie Day: Celebrating 2 Years in our new lab

Two years ago, Ellie Diagnostics reached a significant milestone with the grand opening of our flagship laboratory in Louisville, KY. The Lieutenant Governor of Kentucky, Jacqueline Coleman, surprised our team by appointing it Ellie Day! This event was a testament to our growth and success in the veterinary diagnostics industry and marked the beginning of a new tradition. This special day was established to celebrate our team's dedication and hard work in bringing this state-of-the-art facility to life. Ellie Day has since become an annual celebration of our achievements and a time to recognize the continuous efforts that have shaped our journey.

The Louisville laboratory, which officially opened its doors in 2022, was a major leap forward in our mission to provide exceptional diagnostic services to veterinary clinics nationwide. Spanning 33,000 square feet, construction of our modern facility began in March 2022 and was completed in record time. Our new laboratory quickly became a central hub for our operations, allowing us to significantly scale our services across the United States.

Strategically situated near the air hub of our logistics partner, UPS, the location allows us to offer rapid, accurate diagnostic results often delivered within hours of receiving patient samples. This capability empowers veterinarians to diagnose and treat diseases more quickly, ultimately improving the quality of care they can provide to their patients. The lab interior was thoughtfully designed with our lab technicians in mind. Floor-to-ceiling windows create a bright and spacious lab with top-of-the-line equipment arranged to maximize workflow. Unlike traditional diagnostics labs, Ellie created a space that invites collaboration and employee satisfaction, allowing us to deliver a higher standard of quality assurance. 

Since its opening, our Louisville laboratory has played a pivotal role in fulfilling our mission to make the lives of veterinarians easier. We ensure that veterinarians receive next-day, early-morning diagnostic results, allowing for prompt and effective treatment plans.

Since the inaugural Ellie Day, we celebrate by recognizing our employees, community outreach, and reflecting on the past year's achievements. The grand opening of our Louisville laboratory and the creation of Ellie Day remain proud moments in our company’s history. As we continue to grow and innovate, Ellie Day serves as a reminder of the dedication, hard work, and passion that have driven our success and will continue to guide us in the years to come.
