Direct-Access Lab Testing Powered by Quest Diagnostics
Self-Order Labs by Optimize
Self-Order Labs by Optimize allows patients to order individual labs or curated lab panels without a traditional office visit. All testing is performed through Quest Diagnostics with professional phlebotomy and secure electronic results. We do have the option to send to LabCorp but the prices are slightly higher.
These labs are ideal for patients who want insight into their health, hormone balance, metabolism, or nutrient status — whether for prevention, monitoring, or optimization.
