In House Testing

From regular testing, such as an annual well-woman’s visit, to screening for health problems to checking for allergies and more, both preventative and as-necessary testing are critical for your health and your peace of mind. At Austin Family Medicine Associates, we understand this, in addition to the frustration that many feel when they have to make separate appointments with their doctor and a lab to get testing.
