Lab and Pathology
Our comprehensive lab and pathology services help us evaluate your health, detect illnesses early and monitor existing conditions.

Studies show that up to 80% of healthcare decisions rely on laboratory data to diagnose or rule out illnesses. Our labs process thousands of cases each year using cutting-edge technology and techniques. We analyze blood, body fluids or tissue samples and perform tests that help detect irregularities in your cells or body chemistry that routine physical exams may not detect. Thanks to advanced technology, we can catch diseases earlier and diagnose patients more accurately.
Some conditions need regular monitoring to check how well your treatment works or to guide your doctor on future care. Even if you feel fine, your doctor might order tests to set a baseline for comparison later.
Our labs are fully licensed by California’s Department of Health Services and certified under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendment (CLIA), ensuring top-quality care.
