Adult patients will have annual routine labs done as part of their physical. Routine labs typically include tests to help detect high blood sugars, liver and kidney concerns, anemia, thyroid dysfunction and electrolyte imbalance. Labs are also used by Dr. McFadden to establish a baseline (normal) and to monitor changes over time. Some patients need additional labs to monitor health goals or to ensure medications do not need to be adjusted. 

Lab work is typically covered by your insurance plan. For patients who do not have insurance, she will work with you to find the more affordable option. 

Testing orders are sent to your preferred lab draw location; blood work is not drawn in the office. 

If you have had labs done through a different provider, Dr. McFadden can request a copy of previously completed labs. If you would like labs done through our office sent along to a different provider, we can facilitate your request.
