Confidentiality is built in — orders are private and results are accessed securely. Because individual sites vary, double-check the lab's own guidance on preparation, timing, and cost.
What it measures
- Complete blood count (CBC) — Counts red cells, white cells, and platelets, which carry oxygen, fight infection, and help clotting.
- Comprehensive metabolic panel (CMP) — Checks blood sugar, kidney function, liver function, and electrolyte balance.
- Lipid panel — Measures cholesterol and triglycerides, fats linked to heart health.
- Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) — Screens how well your thyroid gland is working.
- Hemoglobin A1c — Reflects average blood sugar over the past few months.
Preparation
Fasting for 8 to 12 hours is often requested because food can affect blood sugar and lipid results; water and usual medications are generally fine. If your clinician says fasting is not needed, you can eat normally.
Results and what they mean
Results are reported as numbers with reference ranges, usually within 1 to 3 business days. A clinician interprets them alongside your history, symptoms, and other findings. This is general information, not medical advice; discuss your results with a qualified clinician.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need to fast?
Often yes, for 8 to 12 hours, because eating can change blood sugar and lipid results. Follow the instructions from your clinician.
How long until I get results?
Most results are ready in 1 to 3 business days. Your clinician's office will tell you how they will share them.
Can I take my medications?
In most cases yes, with water. Ask your clinician or pharmacist if any of your medicines should be skipped or timed differently.
What if a result is outside the reference range?
A single out-of-range value does not always mean a problem. Your clinician will consider the full picture and may repeat the test or order more.
