PCR technology enables us to quickly and accurately identify Gastrointestinal illness causing viruses, Clostridium Difficile, and a multitude of other Gastrointestinal Tract Pathogens. This allows for the most efficient assessment and management of illness. Our comprehensive screening is paired with a rapid turn-around time with results available the same day that the lab receives your specimens.
