WHAT WE TEST

The lab work patients walk in for.

If you don't see your test here, just call. We probably do it — and if not, we'll point you to where you can get it.

i.

Bloodwork & Chronic Disease Labs

CBC, comprehensive metabolic panel, lipid panel, A1c, TSH, kidney function, and more. For annual physicals, chronic disease monitoring (diabetes, thyroid, cholesterol), and general health screening.

ii.

Drug Screens

Pre-employment drug screens and return-to-work testing. Common 5-panel and 10-panel options available. Bring any required paperwork from your employer with you.

iii.

Pregnancy Testing

Quick urine pregnancy testing with same-visit results. Confidential, judgment-free, and we can talk through what's next regardless of the result.

iv.

STI Testing

Confidential testing for common sexually transmitted infections. We can test, treat what's treatable on-site, and refer for anything beyond our scope. No appointment needed.

v.

Urinalysis & UTI Testing

Burning, frequency, blood in your urine, or back pain? A urinalysis can confirm a urinary tract infection so we can prescribe the right antibiotic during your visit.

vi.

Pre-Surgical & Pre-Op Labs

Surgeon ordered labs before a procedure? We can draw them here and send the results to your surgeon's office. Bring the order or order number with you.

About results turnaround

Some tests give results during your visit (urinalysis, pregnancy, rapid strep). Most bloodwork is sent to our partner Quest Diagnostics with results typically back in 1–2 days. Your provider reviews them and follows up with a plan.

HOW IT WORKS

Three steps from walking in to having your labs done.

Some tests need fasting, some don't — we'll let you know at check-in. Here's what to expect.

i.

Walk in & check in

Stop by 624 Charlevoix Avenue during open hours. Bring your insurance card, ID, and any lab orders or paperwork from another provider or employer.

Typical Time

5–10 minutes

ii.

Brief evaluation & sample collection

A provider confirms what tests are being ordered. Our staff then collects the sample — blood draw, urine sample, or swab depending on the test. Most blood draws take less than 5 minutes.

Typical Time

10–15 minutes

iii.

Results & follow-up

Some tests give answers during your visit (urinalysis, pregnancy, rapid strep). Bloodwork is sent to Quest with results typically back in 1–2 days. Your provider reviews them and follows up with a plan.

  • Employer drug screen paperwork (if applicable)
  • List of current medications
  • Note: some tests require fasting — call ahead if unsure
WHY IT MATTERS

Lab work here vs. a separate lab facility.

It's the same blood, the same panels, the same Quest results — but the experience is very different.
