How long does it take to get blood test results back?

Most routine blood tests are resulted within 1-3 business days. Some specialty tests take 5-10 days. You will be contacted by our office when your results are available, or you can call to check status.

Do I need to fast before blood work?

It depends on the test. Lipid panels and glucose tests typically require 8-12 hours of fasting. Many other tests do not. Our staff will give you specific fasting instructions when your tests are ordered.

Can I get an X-ray or MRI at your office?

We do not perform X-rays or MRIs in-office, but we coordinate referrals to trusted local imaging facilities and ensure your results are returned to your provider quickly.

Do you offer same-day drug testing?

Yes. We offer pre-employment, court-ordered, and clinical drug testing with same-day collection. Rapid screening results are available immediately; confirmation testing takes 2-5 business days.

Is testing covered by insurance?

Medically necessary testing is covered by most insurance plans. Routine annual screening labs are typically covered as preventive care under the ACA. We will verify coverage before non-routine tests are ordered.
