What to Know About Lab Appointments

  • The hospital laboratory is busiest in the morning. If you are not required to fast, consider scheduling later in the day.
  • Please register at the outpatient registration desk before coming to the lab and present your lab requisition if you have one.
  • Tell the laboratory’s registrant if:
    • the provider has sent the requisition
    • you are an oncology patient
    • you have a recurring standing order, or
    • the order was faxed.
  • Wear loose-fitting clothing so we can examine your arms for the best draw site.
  • We recommend scheduling lab visits for time-sensitive collection and special requirements or requests.

Important Reminders

  • We recommend fasting for profiles, glucose and cholesterol/lipid panels unless otherwise specified by your provider. You may drink water.
  • Certain tests such as drug levels should be drawn when recommended by the ordering provider to ensure accuracy. We will ask when you had your last dose.
