Common Questions
Can I walk in without an appointment?
Yes! If you can't schedule before 9am, we recommend arriving 15 minutes before the lab opens. Follow all other preparation guidelines.
Why before 9:00am?
For the most accurate hormone results (cortisol, testosterone, thyroid). If not possible, some results may be less precise.
Will I need to provide urine?
