Blood Chemistry - Looking Inside The Body

Have you had a complete blood chemistry test lately – a look to see what’s going on inside your body? Health conscious people want a better standard of care than insurance generally allows, so we provide the Opti-Chem Profile, a comprehensive array of over 50 tests. Regular testing can help us detect problems early, correct imbalances and help you attain optimal health.

Some of the things we look for are signs of diabetes and other sugar handling disorders, heart disease, iron overload, liver and kidney toxicity and immune dysfunction. Is your system too acidic or alkaline? Are you at risk for osteoprosis? It’s much easier to deal with issues early, before a real problem occurs. Ask the doctor today about the Opti-Chem Profile and balance your chemistry for a better life.

We offer other tests for hormone levels including thyroid, testosterone, estradiol and progesterone. Also, PSA testing for prostate health and cardiovascular risk factors like homocysteine, C-reactive protein and fibrinogen.
