Expertise

I can answer questions about the purpose of specific laboratory tests, and specific laboratory testing interferences. I can suggest specific questions the patient may want to ask their physician if there are further questions regarding the interpretation of their laboratory testing results. I cannot diagnose diseases or be held responsible for any information or suggestions offered. The final authority and informational resource regarding the patient's medical treatment should be their own physician.
