When it comes to diagnosing and monitoring your health, timely lab testing is essential. At mediDental care, we offer on-site blood work and urinalysis services so our patients can get fast, accurate results without needing to visit a separate lab. As your trusted provider of primary care in Astoria, we believe in making health care simple, efficient, and centered around your needs, including comprehensive oral exams.
Doctors routinely order lab tests as part of health assessments during checkups and play a key role in interpreting results such as blood panels, urinalysis, and cholesterol measurements.

From routine checkups to managing chronic conditions, our in-house diagnostics support better, faster care—right here in our office. Consulting with a physician ensures the right tests are selected and that your results are properly explained.
Laboratory tests play a key role in detecting disease, tracking treatment progress, and preventing health problems before they become serious. On-site testing provides several advantages over off-site lab referrals.
Our in-office lab is equipped to handle a wide variety of diagnostic and monitoring tests, including groups of related blood tests (such as panels) that provide a comprehensive health assessment.
These tests analyze substances present in the bloodstream to provide important health information.
We also perform pre-operative blood work, employment screenings, and travel health lab panels upon request.
Urine testing can reveal early signs of infection, kidney issues, or chronic disease.
Our providers may recommend lab testing as part of a preventive care plan, during a sick visit, or to monitor existing conditions. Blood and urine tests may also be required for school physicals or back-to-school health assessments.
Getting blood or urine tests at mediDental care is easy and comfortable. Appointments can be scheduled for lab testing to ensure timely and efficient service.
Some tests require preparation for accuracy. We’ll always give you instructions ahead of time.
Each person can take an active role in their health by preparing properly for lab testing.
Turnaround times vary depending on the type of test. However, with in-house testing, many patients receive results within the same day or 24–48 hours. You can find your lab results through our patient portal or by contacting our office directly.
For more advanced or send-out tests, results may take 3–5 business days. We always review your labs with you as soon as they’re ready.

Most preventive and diagnostic lab tests are covered by insurance. We accept most major insurance plans and always confirm your coverage before performing any test.
If you’re uninsured, we offer affordable self-pay pricing and will review costs with you in advance.
When you receive lab results from routine lab tests like a complete blood count (CBC) or a lipid panel, it’s natural to wonder what those numbers mean for your health. Each test provides valuable information about your body’s current state—whether it’s checking your cholesterol, triglycerides, electrolytes, or blood sugar levels. For example, a lipid panel can reveal if your LDL cholesterol is higher than normal, which may increase your risk for heart disease, while a CBC can help detect anemia or signs of infection.
Your doctor will review your lab results with you during a follow up visit, taking the time to explain what’s normal and what may require further attention. If you have a condition like diabetes, your provider may order regular lab tests to monitor your blood sugar and adjust your treatment plan as needed. Understanding your lab results empowers you to make informed decisions about your wellness and take proactive steps to manage or prevent disease. By staying informed and asking questions during your visit, you become an active partner in your health journey.
Ongoing wellness is about more than just treating illness—it’s about using lab work to stay ahead of potential health issues. Routine lab tests, such as blood work and urinalysis, are powerful tools for early detection of conditions like anemia, infection, or chronic disease, often before symptoms even appear. By working closely with your doctor to order and review lab tests, you can better understand your health and make changes that support long-term wellness.
For instance, a lipid panel can help you track your cholesterol and make lifestyle adjustments to lower your risk of heart disease. If you’re managing diabetes, regular blood work allows you and your provider to monitor your blood sugar and prevent complications. Many healthcare services, including Labcorp, offer convenient online scheduling and multiple locations, making it easy to access lab testing when and where you need it. Simply search for a lab location near you, book your appointment, and take the next step toward a healthier future. Prioritizing lab work and regular testing is a key part of maintaining your wellness and catching any changes early, so you can continue to live your healthiest life.
