If I Need a Blood Test, Should I Fast Beforehand?
Your doctor will let you know if fasting (not eating and drinking only water) prior to the test is necessary. If you need to fast, we let you know for how long. Blood tests that typically require fasting include cholesterol and blood sugar evaluations.
What Happens After I Provide My Blood, Urine or Tissue Sample?
We label it and send it to the lab. Technicians perform quality checks before and after any tests requested by your doctor. The team confirms the results and sends them electronically to you and your care team.
How Will I Be Notified of My Results?
- If results are normal, we typically post them in your patient portal within two business days.
- If results are not normal, a physician or nurse calls you to explain the findings and next steps in your care.
Will My Doctor Receive My Results?
Your doctors and providers can access your results through electronic medical records as soon as they are available. In some cases, this may be before you receive them. You can view your results in the patient portal.
