- Blood bank for examining types, screens and cross-matches for compatible blood products, as well as conducting transfusions and infusion therapy
- Microbiology tests to identify and treat infectious diseases, including those caused by bacteria, viruses, fungi or parasites
- Urine, blood, tissue, cerebral spinal fluid and other bodily fluid tests
For outpatient services, including blood draws and specimen, drop-off hours are from 7:00am to 5:00 pm, Monday through Friday.
We are subject to the standards required by the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 (CLIA) and maintain current CLIA licenses. The lab is also accredited by the College of American Pathologist (CAP).
