The Importance of Lab Testing
Body fluids and tissues contain comprehensive information on a person’s overall health that is not always visible to the naked eye.
Lab testing provides valuable information on:
- Bacterial infections
- Blood sugar levels
- Cancer diagnosis and progress
- Cholesterol levels
- Nutrients in blood
- White blood cell count
- HIV/AIDS diagnosis
- Sexually transmitted disease screening and diagnosis
The earlier a problem is found, the better chance you and your doctor have of treating it. Ask your doctor about medical lab testing during your next physical.
