For emergencies, always call 911 (or your local emergency response system if different).
Laboratory results are available on the
patient portal. In addition, laboratory results are sent to patients in "Lab Letters," and typically, you do not need to call us for lab results. The Lab Letters include test results and helpful information regarding the results. Also, the letters indicate if any follow-up action is required of you. We are alerted when lab results are not normal, and the physicians determine the needed follow-up action. Typically, when this occurs, our office will call you and inform you of what needs to be done (such as change to a medication and/or dosage), or the physician will indicate in the Lab Letter that you need to call us.
