We have a CLIA certified, moderate complexity laboratory in our office, a rather unique feature in medical offices these days. Our point of care testing instruments are state of the art, government certified tools. We feel that offering this additional service to our patients will improve the quality of care we provide by eliminating the wait time for test results as well as reducing the anxiety associated with this lag time.
