Routine environment testing in the hospital ensures a safe environment for each patient. Our laboratory at LEMC strives to perform as many tests as possible in house, however certain specimens are sent daily to outside labs for processing. These outside labs are chosen for their expertise, and include; Colorado State Diagnostics Lab for Histopathology, Center for Tox Services for drug screening, Cornell Diagnostics Lab for Endocrinology. Along with BioMed Services & Heska for allergy screening and Equine Diagnostics Solutions & U.C. Davis for PCR, EMV and EPM testing. To expedite results, all specimens are shipped out priority overnight.
