Why Is an On-Site Laboratory Important?

Having an on-site laboratory allows our medical providers to perform many diagnostic tests during your visit, helping us evaluate illnesses and injuries more efficiently. Rather than traveling to another facility for testing and waiting days for results, many laboratory studies can be completed while you're still in the office.

This streamlined approach helps your provider make informed treatment decisions sooner, whether you're being evaluated for an infection, dehydration, diabetes, a urinary tract infection, or another medical condition. For many patients, this means receiving a diagnosis and beginning treatment during the same visit.

Do You Offer PCR Molecular Testing?

Yes. EZMED offers advanced PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) molecular testing for selected infectious diseases.

PCR testing identifies the genetic material of bacteria or viruses, allowing certain infections to be detected with a high degree of accuracy. For many tests, results are available in less than one hour, helping our providers diagnose infections and begin treatment as quickly as possible when appropriate.

If PCR testing is recommended for your symptoms, your provider will discuss the testing process and explain your results.

Do You Offer Other Diagnostic Testing?

In addition to laboratory services, EZMED also provides several on-site diagnostic tests, including electrocardiograms (EKGs) to evaluate the electrical activity of the heart when clinically indicated.

Depending on your symptoms, your provider may recommend additional testing or referral for imaging studies or specialty evaluation to ensure you receive the most appropriate care.
