Often, the earlier your specialist can diagnose a medical problem, the easier it is to treat. Lab testing also allows your primary care specialist to determine if your current treatment is properly managing a chronic disease. Which lab tests are right for me? After reviewing your symptoms and medical history, the CN Internal Medicine team tells you if you need lab tests and which ones best fit your needs. They also ask about your medication, complete a physical exam, discuss your lifestyle habits, and check your vital signs.
What you can expect during lab testing at CN Internal Medicine depends on which tests you undergo. Your provider might take a sample of your blood using a tiny needle or have you urinate in a cup. They might swab the inside of your nose, throat, and other areas to get a cell sample for lab analysis. The cervix would be swabbed for a Pap smear. You might need a biopsy (a small tissue sample) to help your provider determine if you have skin cancer or other medical problems requiring treatment. Schedule an appointment today at CN Internal Medicine by phone or online to find out which in-house lab testing you need.
