What Does a Lab Test Include?
Vital signs will be measured before your physican or PA takes a sample for your specific lab testing. Height, weight, and vital signs all act as a barometer of important bodily functions and provide a sort of quick snapshot of your overall health.
Tracking vital signs over time, including blood pressure, pulse, body temperature, and respiration rates, are useful tools to assess your risk for numerous health conditions and chronic diseases.
Providers at AFC Urgent Care Newtown can then administer a blood test, STD panel, or any other type of diagnostic test. Just simply walk-in to get started today.
