Preventive Lab Testing in St. George, Utah
Ask whether lab testing would be useful for your preventive care, and how results will guide next steps.
Testing with a clear purpose
Lab tests can help your provider understand your health and plan follow-up. In preventive care, testing is chosen individually based on your history and concerns, not as a standard package.
Your provider can explain why a test is suggested, whether any preparation such as fasting is needed, and how results may affect your care.
What lab-related care may include
Depending on your history and previous results, care may include:
- Review of previous lab results
- Personal and family risk review
- Cholesterol screening when appropriate
- Blood sugar screening when appropriate
- Repeat testing recommendations
Questions about lab work
- Why is this test being recommended?
- Do I need to fast or prepare?
- Where will the sample be collected?
- When and how will I hear about results?
- What happens if a result is outside the expected range?
Preparing for testing
Follow any preparation instructions your provider gives you. If you are unsure whether to fast or take your usual medications, call and ask before your appointment.
If you have recent results from another provider, bring them so tests aren’t repeated unnecessarily.
Before you call
Lab testing is not an automatic part of every wellness visit, and we do not offer set lab bundles. Your provider will discuss which tests, if any, may be appropriate.
