Receive a Hemoccult Test at Lifeline Urgent Care in Houston, TX

Lifeline Urgent Care in Houston, Texas, is equipped with a clinical lab, allowing our experienced practitioners to swiftly provide many diagnostic services onsite. One such service is a hemoccult test. Also known as an occult test, this test is performed to check for hidden blood in the stool, a potential sign of colon polyps, colon cancer, or anemia. Oftentimes, blood occurs in such miniscule amounts that a lab test is required for detection. A hemoccult test is simple – the patient provides a small stool sample which is evaluated in our lab to screen for traces of blood.
