Fasting is required for some laboratory tests so we might ask you not to eat or drink anything for several hours before your lab test. Read our Patient Instructions and How to Prepare for your Lab Visit for more information.

Our employees enter the information on the requisition you provide us into our computer system. The computer produces printed labels that go on every container or test tube that holds your specimens.
At LifeLabs we use bar code scanning much like the kind you see in grocery and department stores. In our bar code system every patient receives a unique number every time he or she visits one of our locations. The bar code forms part of the label on your specimen containers. This sophisticated system makes sure that your name and specimen are accurately matched all the way through the testing process.
Laboratory tests are ordered for many different reasons; because of a problem you've reported to your doctor, to check on a condition that has already been diagnosed, or maybe to see how you're responding to prescribed medication. These are just some of the reasons why your doctor might ask for a lab test.
As well, the same test or combinations of tests may be ordered for different reasons. Our staff cannot answer any questions about why your doctor has ordered a certain test or what (s)he is looking for. Your doctor is the best person to speak with to answer any questions you may have.
