Bloodwork (Lifelabs)

Naturopathic physicians provide access to hundreds of routine and specialized lab tests that help manage wellness programs as well as predict, diagnose, and monitor both acute and chronic disease. Naturopathic physicians use Life Labs and can order all of the blood tests that are available.

Blood tests that naturopathic physicians may order include items that the medical system cannot or will not order for patients but that patients may be curious to know about or items that may be pertinent to their wellness.

Common Tests ordered include:

– Thyroid hormone panel (TSH, T3, T4, thyroid antibodies)
– Vitmain D
– Ferritin (for diagnosing anemia)
– Fasting Insulin
– Fasting Glucose
– Liver Enzymes
– ABO Blood Typing
– Gluten Antibody (for celiac disease)
