Lab Diagnostics

As primary health care providers, we may use blood, hair, stool, urine, or salivary samples for lab diagnostic testing to ensure proper, individualized diagnosis and treatment. We utilize lab testing to assist in diagnosing conditions and monitoring the effectiveness of therapies. We offer both conventional and specialized testing through onsite collection methods and referrals to a LifeLabs facility.

Advanced Functional Lab Testing

Not only can we offer conventional lab tests offered by medical doctors, we also offer tests that most other healthcare providers don’t. These tests provide information about a variety of systems including metabolic, nutritional, endocrine, gastrointestinal, hormonal, immune, genetic, detoxification, and others. Knowledge is power. Functional lab testing helps us understand “why” and “what” lead to the present state of dis-ease. This allows us to employ a variety of approaches at correcting the underlying imbalances.
We do onsite collection, processing and shipping for all tests requiring a blood draw. Samples are sent to a variety of different specialty labs that we have partnered with. Some of these labs and their tests include (not a complete list, call for details on availability of tests not listed):

Conventional Lab Tests

As Naturopathic Physicians we can order any lab test offered by LifeLabs. In cooperation with Lifelabs we have developed comprehensive assessment panels allowing us the benefit of ordering highly informative tests not frequently ordered by medical doctors. Even when conventional blood testing is ordered, we often interpret the results with a functional or holistic perspective.
