How will I get my results?
Lab Results typically take anywhere between 3-5 business days from the time the lab receives your specimen, usually the following morning of your visit. Specimens are picked up at the end of the day. Sometimes they are fast, sometimes they are longer, this is an estimate!
You will be called on Positive Results only by us and the FDOH
You can access your lab results through your patient portal by registering
