On-site Laboratory
Services
Having laboratory services available right where you receive your medical care makes a significant difference in convenience, speed, and quality of treatment. At SAGE Family Medicine in Spartanburg, SC, our on-site laboratory means you get the tests you need without the hassle of traveling to separate facilities or waiting days for results.
Our on-site lab capabilities include common blood tests, urinalysis, rapid strep tests, flu testing, COVID-19 testing, glucose monitoring, and basic metabolic panels. This immediate access to diagnostic testing allows us to make informed decisions about your care quickly, often during the same visit. When you are feeling unwell or managing a chronic condition, getting answers fast can mean starting treatment sooner and feeling better faster. The convenience factor cannot be overstated. Instead of receiving an order for lab work that requires a separate trip across town, you can have your blood drawn or samples collected right here during your appointment. This is especially valuable for our elderly patients, busy parents, and anyone managing multiple medical appointments. We handle everything in one location, saving you time and reducing the stress of coordinating multiple healthcare visits.

Our trained staff performs all lab procedures with skill and compassion, understanding that some patients may be anxious about blood draws or medical tests. We use proper techniques to minimize discomfort and always explain what we are doing and why. Results from many tests are available within minutes, allowing for immediate treatment decisions, while more complex tests are processed quickly with results typically available within 24-48 hours.
Having an on-site laboratory also improves continuity of care. We maintain all your test results in your medical record, tracking trends over time and catching changes that might be missed if your lab work was scattered across different facilities. This comprehensive approach helps us provide better, more coordinated care for all your health needs.
