What should I know about labs?

For patient convenience, Su Clinica Medical Group has in-office laboratory draw stations to collect and test samples. 

The team includes bilingual medical professionals fluent in English and Spanish, benefiting the health needs of the culturally diverse community. Onsite labs also make it easier for older patients to get the medical tests they need to manage their health.

What types of labs are available?

Su Clinica Medical Group may take blood draws for blood tests like a complete blood count (CBC) to check for anemia or basic metabolic panel (BMP) to check fluid and electrolyte balance.
