Fasting Before Your Test
We recommend fasting overnight or 10 to 12 hours for any test that requires it. That will make sure you're in a
basal metabolic state and will produce more accurate test results.
Avoid: All food and beverages including coffee, tea and sugar-free products.
Drink Water: Hydration produces the best lab results.
Getting Your Results
How you get your test results will depend on what kind of test or screening you had done. We can only provide information about the test and report format. Contact your health care provider with questions about your results.
Your screening results will be available on your MyHealthSpace account after a licensed health care professional reviews them. If any follow up is needed, your provider will contact you directly.
Your lab test results will go directly to the doctor that requested them. The lab cannot provide the results of doctor-ordered tests over the phone under any circumstances.
Patient Services will release results about STIs and HIV/AIDS to you.
These lab results fall under the category of privileged information in our privacy practices.
If your results are positive or there is a concern, you will be contacted to schedule a follow up appointment. Negative results will be sent via secure message in MyHealthSpace. You should receive results within 48-72 hours.
Outside Lab Orders
