Our laboratory uses automated analyzers and is supervised by experienced pathologists and biochemists. We enforce strict internal quality control standards to verify the precision of every test result.
Guidelines for Laboratory Tests
- • Fast for 10 to 12 hours for lipid profiles and fasting blood sugar tests.
- • Inform the lab technician about any medications you are currently taking.
- • Follow specific instruction leaflets for collecting urine or stool samples.
- • Stay hydrated prior to blood collection unless advised otherwise.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is fasting required for some blood tests?
Nutrients in recently consumed food and drink are absorbed into the bloodstream, which can temporarily alter sugar, fat, and iron levels, affecting test accuracy.
How long does it take to get laboratory test results?
Most routine blood and urine tests are processed and ready within a few hours. Specialized assays, cultures, or biopsies may require a few days.
Automated Diagnostic Assays & Quality Standards
Our laboratory is equipped with high-throughput automated analyzers for biochemistry, hematology, and immunochemistry. This automation eliminates human manual handling errors and ensures rapid processing times, allowing our physicians to make quick clinical decisions. We participate in strict quality assurance programs, validating our equipment daily with standard controls.
We offer specialized diagnostic profiles, including thyroid panels, cancer markers, lipid profiles, diabetes diagnostics (HbA1c), and microbiological blood and urine cultures. Our blood collection bay is staffed by pediatric-trained phlebotomists, ensuring a comfortable experience for children and anxious patients.
