Blood Draws

A Complete Blood Count (CBC) is a commonly used screening test that provides essential information about overall health and detects various disorders. It helps in diagnosing conditions such as anemia, and various inflammatory processes.

Comprehensive Metabolic Panel - This panel includes a series of tests that assess an individual’s blood levels of electrolytes, calcium, phosphorus, and glucose, along with kidney and liver function, and acid-base balance. It is commonly ordered during health check-ups to identify various conditions, particularly those impacting the liver or kidneys.

Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase (G6PD), Quantitative - This test measures the activity of the G6PD enzyme in the blood. G6PD is essential for protecting red blood cells from damage. A deficiency in this enzyme can lead to hemolytic anemia, particularly after exposure to certain medications, infections, or foods. The test is often used to diagnose G6PD deficiency and guide treatment decisions.

B-type Natriuretic Peptide (BNP) - BNP levels are measured to assess fluid overload and cardiovascular stress. Elevated BNP levels indicate increased strain on the heart, often due to fluid accumulation, and can help monitor the effectiveness of treatments to reduce fluid overload.

Basic weight loss testing includes thyroid function, blood glucose, and lipid panels to identify metabolic, hormonal, or organ-related issues that may contribute to weight gain. These tests help detect conditions like hypothyroidism, insulin resistance, and hormone imbalances, essential for personalized weight management strategies.

A general wellness panel includes tests like CBC, CMP, lipid panel, and thyroid function to assess overall health, organ function, and disease risk. It provides key insights into blood health, metabolism, heart risk, and nutrient levels.

A thyroid panel measures hormone levels (TSH, T3, and T4) to assess thyroid function, detecting conditions like hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism. It helps evaluate metabolism, energy levels, and overall hormonal balance.

A Vitamin D3 test measures the level of Vitamin D in the blood to assess bone health, immune function, and overall wellness. Low levels can lead to bone weakness, fatigue, and increased risk of chronic diseases.

This typically involves a comprehensive panel of tests that measure the levels of various essential nutrients in the body. These nutrients include vitamins, minerals, amino acids, fatty acids, and antioxidants.
