General Practice 

Often the first point of contact for patients seeking care, general practice clinicians can be life-long partners in their patients’ health. Syndromic infectious disease testing gives general practitioners the tools to make timely, informed treatment decisions while giving patients the answers they seek.

Primary Care Infectious Disease Testing

Patients often turn to general practice clinics when they are suffering from common respiratory or gastrointestinal infections. But diagnosing these infections based on symptoms alone is difficult, if not impossible. Onsite infectious disease diagnostics are convenient for patients and help avoid the expense of offsite or send-out testing—all while giving clinicians the fast, comprehensive results they need to make appropriate and targeted treatment decisions.
