What diagnostic tests are available for pediatric care?
Bloodwork and other diagnostic testing services are available on-site to monitor your child’s health and evaluate injuries.
The providers may recommend blood work during a sick visit or well-child exam if your child has diabetes or other chronic health condition to evaluate their health and ensure treatment is working.
Favia Primary Care also offers on-site rapid testing for strep, influenza, and Covid 19 testing on-site. On-site urine testing is also available. They use lung function tests (spirometry) to diagnose asthma and electrocardiogram (EKG) technology to identify underlying heart conditions.
