Laboratory

The Gothenburg Health Lab performs lab tests for patients from a wide geographic area. They can perform tests ordered from outside our service community by any licensed Physician or Provider.

They also offer pre-employment drug screens and random drug screens for businesses. Any business requesting Employee Bloodwork Screenings can also contact our Lab staff. 

Therapeutic phlebotomy is also performed by the staff.
