Hemostasis Laboratory – Platelet Testing
*Due to significant covid-related effects on personnel, turnaround times for samples received work week of August 30th or later will have significantly prolonged turnarounds times. This time may approach 15 business days. We will update the turnaround time estimation when these issues resolve. Thanks so much for your patience and please contact the Lab Director with any questions or concerns.*
Please contact us with any questions or concerns.
Thanks and be safe.
