CBC is a Complete Blood Count. It is a blood test that checks hemoglobin, hematocrit, red blood cells (RBC), white blood cells (WBC), and platelets. This blood test is used to determine general health status and to screen for and monitor a variety of disorders such as anemia. Changing levels of red or white blood cells can indicate disease or infection and are very helpful in a health screening. This will allow an individual to seek medical advice from a physician once levels have been established. In this case, baseline levels are also important for future comparison in a diagnosis by a physician.

CMP is a Complete Metabolic Panel or Comprehensive Metabolic Panel. It's a frequently ordered panel of blood tests that gives you important information about the current status of your kidneys, liver, electrolytes as well as your blood sugar, blood proteins, and total cholesterol.

Urinalysis samples are given in order to check for cloudiness, blood, unusual odors, acidity, concentration, protein levels, etc. This helps to ascertain whether or not a visit to a physician is in order as well as to detect health problems indicated by a urinalysis. Having the urine tested is one of the basic health screening procedures and can be very helpful in assisting someone who may have concerns about their overall health and well being.

The Complete Blood Count with Differential (CBC) and the Metabolic Panel, Comprehensive (CMP) and a Urinalysis are fundamental to any blood work or health check.  Our combination of these two tests into the "Basic Health Screen" has been our #1 best selling blood test panel for more than 30 years.
