Evolve Family Medicine provides a comprehensive range of medical services, including convenient on-site lab testing. These minimally invasive assessments are designed to detect and confirm the presence or absence of disease. By identifying health concerns at an early stage, our family practitioner, Dr. Rakhi Sarkar, can offer the most effective treatment options to enhance and manage your well-being.
If you or a loved one are experiencing unexplained symptoms, suspect you might have the flu or are dealing with chronic fatigue, we encourage you to contact our office in Frisco, TX, to schedule a health examination. Dr. Rakhi Sarkar will recommend the appropriate lab tests to provide you with the answers and personalized treatment you deserve.
Lab testing encompasses a variety of assessments, but some of the most commonly performed tests include:
Complete Blood Count (CBC): This test evaluates the levels of red and white blood cells, as well as platelets, providing insights into a patient’s overall health, nutritional status, and potential medical disorders.
Urinalysis: A simple yet essential diagnostic test that involves collecting a small urine sample to conduct a general health screening.
Basic Metabolic Panel: This blood test measures blood sugar levels, electrolyte balance, fluid volume, and kidney function. It is useful for assessing how medications may be impacting kidney health and electrolyte levels.
Cholesterol Screening (Lipid Panel): This test measures cholesterol and triglyceride levels in the blood, helping to evaluate a patient’s risk for heart disease and stroke.
Hemoglobin A1C: This test calculates the average blood sugar levels over the past 2 to 3 months, aiding in the identification and monitoring of diabetes.
Cultures: Used to diagnose infections and other diseases, culture tests are commonly employed to identify conditions such as the flu, strep throat, mononucleosis, urinary tract infections, and meningitis.
Most of our lab services at Evolve Family Medicine are minimally invasive and typically involve collecting a blood or urine sample. The specific tests ordered by Dr. Rakhi Sarkar will depend on the nature and severity of your symptoms. All lab services are conveniently performed on-site at our office in Frisco, TX.
On average, test results are available within a few days, although this may vary based on the type of test conducted. Once your results are in, either Dr. Rakhi Sarkar or a member of our team will contact you to discuss the findings and determine if any follow-up tests are necessary. From there, Dr. Rakhi Sarkar will guide you through the best treatment options tailored to your needs.
