Request an AppointmentIn-House and Referral Laboratory Testing
Our in-house laboratory allows us to run many common tests quickly, giving us same-day answers for routine bloodwork, urinalysis, and parasite screening. For more specialized needs, we work with trusted referral laboratories to expand our diagnostic capabilities.
Academic Laboratory Partnerships
Some tests require a level of accuracy that only academic institutions can provide. We work with diagnostic laboratories at Colorado State University, Michigan State University, the University of California at San Diego and Davis, the University of Minnesota, and the University of Tennessee for specialty testing such as endocrinology, stone analysis, and histopathology, services that go beyond the scope of typical commercial labs.
