Drug Screens

Through advanced testing methods, we accurately detect the presence of drugs in individuals’ systems, allowing employers to make informed decisions regarding their employees’ fitness for duty. Our experienced medical professionals conduct these screenings with utmost confidentiality and adhere to strict protocols, providing reliable results in a timely manner.

Audiometry

We provide audiology services, including audiometry, to assess and monitor individuals’ hearing abilities. Audiometry is a specialized diagnostic test that measures an individual’s hearing thresholds across various frequencies.

Employer Physicals

We offer comprehensive employer physicals tailored to meet the specific needs of businesses and organizations. Our employer physicals are designed to assess and evaluate the health and fitness of employees to ensure they can safely and effectively perform their job duties. Our skilled medical professionals conduct thorough examinations, including medical history reviews, vital sign measurements, and specific tests relevant to the job requirements. These physicals can identify potential health risks or conditions that may impact job performance or pose safety concerns.

DOT Physicals

We specialize in providing comprehensive DOT (Department of Transportation) physicals for individuals in safety-sensitive positions. Our DOT physicals are designed to meet the specific requirements and regulations set forth by the DOT. Our certified medical examiners conduct thorough examinations to evaluate an individual’s physical and mental fitness to perform the essential functions of their job safely. We meticulously assess factors such as vision, hearing, cardiovascular health, and overall medical history to ensure compliance with DOT guidelines.

Urinalysis

We offer comprehensive urinalysis services to provide valuable insights into an individual’s health and aid in diagnosing various conditions. Urinalysis is a non-invasive diagnostic test that involves analyzing urine samples for the presence of different substances and markers. Our experienced medical professionals use advanced laboratory techniques to assess factors such as glucose levels, protein levels, pH balance, and the presence of red and white blood cells. This helps in detecting urinary tract infections, kidney disorders, diabetes, and other health conditions.

TB Skin Test

We provide TB (tuberculosis) skin tests as part of our comprehensive diagnostic services. TB skin tests are a simple and effective method for detecting the presence of tuberculosis infection in individuals. During the test, a small amount of purified protein derivative (PPD) is injected just beneath the surface of the skin. After 48 to 72 hours, our medical professionals examine the test site for any swelling or redness, indicating a positive reaction.

Electrocardiograms

We offer electrocardiogram (ECG) services to provide a comprehensive assessment of heart health. An electrocardiogram is a non-invasive diagnostic test that records the electrical activity of the heart. By placing electrodes on the chest, arms, and legs, we can capture the heart’s electrical signals and generate a detailed ECG report. This helps our experienced medical professionals evaluate heart rhythm, detect abnormalities, and identify potential cardiac conditions such as arrhythmias, ischemia, and heart attacks. ECGs are quick, painless, and highly valuable in guiding treatment decisions and monitoring cardiac health over time.

Vision Tests

We offer comprehensive vision screenings to assess and monitor individuals’ visual health. Vision screenings are an important tool for detecting potential vision problems and identifying the need for further examination or treatment. Our skilled professionals utilize a variety of tests, including visual acuity assessments, peripheral vision tests, and color vision tests, to evaluate different aspects of vision. These screenings help detect refractive errors, such as nearsightedness or farsightedness, as well as common eye conditions like glaucoma or cataracts.

Glucose Finger Sticks

We offer convenient and reliable glucose finger stick tests to monitor and manage blood sugar levels. Glucose finger sticks involve a quick and minimally invasive procedure in which a small drop of blood is obtained by pricking the finger with a sterile lancet. The blood sample is then analyzed using a glucose meter to determine the current blood sugar level. These tests are particularly valuable for individuals with diabetes or those at risk of developing the condition.
