The Dudley Coe Health Center maintains a small on site lab for urinalysis, pregnancy tests, strep tests, and hematocrit testing. All other blood work and cultures are sent by courier to a local professional laboratory. Results are available for most tests within 24-36 hours and are faxed directly to the Health Center. The Health Center maintains x-ray facilities on campus. Most standard films can be obtained at the Health Center and referrals are made to local hospitals for specialized procedures.
Board certified radiologists read the films daily.
