All testing is performed by registered medical technologists. Obtaining a Laboratory Test You will need to bring a written order from your doctor to the laboratory. If the order is from a UHS doctor, the order for your lab tests will be written on the visit summary form that you will be given when you check in for your visit. If you have an order from a physician who is not a member of the University Health Services staff, call the laboratory to schedule your test. The laboratory staff will send your results to your doctor, so be sure that you have the doctor's address and phone number with you.
Some tests require dietary restrictions or special preparation.
The laboratory staff will discuss your test with you and let you know if any special preparations are involved. If your test requires dietary restrictions, you will probably need to schedule an appointment to have your test performed at a later date. We will try to schedule your test at the most convenient time for you, so that disruption of your class schedule is minimized. There are charges for all laboratory testing . For further information call the lab at 475-8247.
