Health Assessments are lab-tested health screenings that look for certain biological markers, vitamin levels, proteins, and other molecules, through urine or blood samples.

Currently, we are only offering health assessments at our Manhattan Beach, CA, location.

Simply book an appointment on our website, select the desired lab panel, and arrive at the site 5 minutes prior to your scheduled time. Once there, our medical providers will guide you through the next steps.

No, at this time, health assessments are only bookable out-of-pocket. They are not billable to insurance nor reimbursable through insurance.

Canceled appointment up to 2 hours before the appointment time will result in a full refund. Canceled appointments under 2 hours before the appointment time will not be refunded.

The appointment should only take about 10-15 minutes.

Clients must be at least 18 years of age for the lab panels.

Prior to your appointment, you can book a virtual care appointment with a physician who can advise on the panel you should order. Informational brochures are also available on-site at the front desk which can answer most questions.

Sameday Health works with Primex Clinical Laboratories to run lab panels and blood tests.

Results are accessible through Elation, our electronic medical records system, and you will receive an invitation to sign up for your portal via email. **Please note this is separate from the client portal where Covid19 testing results can be found.

A Sameday Health doctor will review the panel results and send them to the you with a synopsis. If you have further questions, you are able to schedule a follow up consultation with the doctor to discuss your results and potential steps forward.

The test, called a thyroid function test, looks at levels of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), thyroxine (T4), and triiodothyronine (T3) in the blood. Thyroid hormone plays a major role in regulating metabolism—the process by which body cells convert nutrients into energy—and thereby helps regulate body temperature, heart rate, and even brain function. So when thyroid hormone levels fall, the body slows. The collection method is a blood draw, and results will be emailed to the patient through Elation, our electronic health records system.

Symptoms of a thyroid issue include fatigue, high heart rate, appetite fluctuation, greater sensitivity to cold, muscle weakness, brittle hair and nails, weight gain or loss, or bulging eyes.

This panel looks for Total Testosterone, Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG), Free Testosterone, dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEA-S), Prostate Specific Antigen (Total PSA), and Cortisol-Serum in the blood. A doctor will use the male hormone panel to diagnose conditions caused by too much or too little testosterone. The collection method is a blood draw, and results will be emailed to the patient through Elation, our electronic health records system.

In men, hormonal imbalance can lead to low sperm counts, shrinking of the testicles, impotence, heart muscle damage, prostate enlargement with difficulty urinating, liver disease, acne, weight gain, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, insomnia, stunted growth, uncharacteristically aggressive behavior, or mood swings. In women, this male hormonal imbalance can lead to decreased breast size, deepening of the voice, irregular periods, reduced fertility, excess hair, weight gain, depression, or anxiety.

This panel includes Estradiol, Progesterone, Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH), Luteinizing Hormone (LH), and Cortisol. It is recommended to stop biotin consumption 72 hours before the test. The collection method is a blood draw, and results will be emailed to the patient through Elation, our electronic health records system.

Symptoms of female hormonal imbalance include pain during sex, increase in UTIs, irregular or absent periods, mood swings, hot flashes, breast tenderness, headaches, depression, unintentional weight changes.

This panel includes C-reactive protein (hsCRP), Sed Rate, Uric Acid, and Cortisol. In this way they are used as markers of inflammation. CRP is a protein made by your liver. It’s sent into your bloodstream in response to inflammation. Inflammation is your body’s way of protecting your tissues if you’ve been injured or have an infection. The collection method is a blood draw, and results will be emailed to the patient through Elation, our electronic health records system.

Acute inflammation produces very obvious and immediate symptoms such as redness, pain, warmth, or swelling. Chronic inflammation is more of a graduate and subtle process and when symptoms do appear, they can include fatigue, muscle aches and joint pain, constipation, diarrhea, weight changes, headaches, and skin rashes. Chronic inflammation can lead to issues with the gastrointestinal system, Alzheimer’s or other forms of dementia, cancer, anxiety and depression, high blood pressure, heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes, asthma, allergies, skin conditions, and arthritis.

The general wellness screening panel includes the lipid panel (LDL, Fasting Triglyceride, HDL, Total Cholesterol), complete blood count (RBC, WBC, hemoglobins, hematocrit, red blood cell indices, platelets), comprehensive metabolic panel (glucose, liver enzymes, kidney function, thyroid, electrolytes, carbon dioxide), and a urinalysis (ketones, glucose, bilirubin, pH, proteins, specific gravity). The collection method is a blood draw, and results will be emailed to the patient through Elation, our electronic health records system.

The general wellness screening can look for liver disorders, diabetes, thyroid disease, anemia, leukemia, blood clotting factors, dehydration, cardiovascular disease, pulmonary disease, and renal disease.

This test is will measure the amount of Vitamin B9, B12, D, Magnesium and Ferritin in your body. Low levels of vitamins can often result from general poor nutrition. The collection method is a blood draw, and results will emailed to the patient through Elation, our electronic health records system.

Symptoms of a vitamin deficiency include pale/yellowish/flaky skin, numbness or tingling in the hands or feet, anemia, difficulty thinking, weakness, fatigue, depression, hemorrhage, thinning hair, or muscle cramps.

The diabetic panel can diagnose Type 1, Type 2, and Gestational Diabetes. This test includes a Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (glucose, liver enzymes, kidney function, thyroid, electrolytes, carbon dioxide) and HbA1c. Diabetes is a chronic disease and is a prime risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Elevated blood glucose/sugar is a sign that your body either isn’t making enough insulin—the hormone that moves sugar into the cells to be used for energy—or isn’t using insulin efficiently. High blood sugar levels can indicate that you have diabetes or prediabetes, as well as an elevated HbA1c. The collection method is a blood draw, and results will be emailed to the patient through Elation, our electronic health records system.

Symptoms include frequent urination, thirst, unintended weight change, blurry vision, numbness or tingling in hands or feet, fatigue, or dry skin.

Not sure what’s causing your uncomfortable symptoms like an itchy throat, watery eyes, and sneezing in Southern California?

This test evaluates for the presence of an allergy-related antibody known as immunoglobulin E (IgE) to specific foods. A positive result means IgE antibodies were detected in your blood for a particular food. The extended food allergy panel tests for allergy to beef, pork, rice, chicken, crab, lobster, shrimp, salmon, turkey, melon, wheat, peanut, soybean, pear, pecan nut, peach, codfish, trout, barley, egg whites, egg yolk, rye, almond, hazelnut, corn, oat, Brazil nut, cow’s milk, cheddar cheese, clams, sesame seed, walnut. The panel also looks for total IgE.
