You or your healthcare provider can order a kit for sample collection. Some kits enable self-collection, but most require professional assistance. With a kit, your healthcare provider can draw/take the sample for you or perhaps make arrangements at a nearby lab. For certain tests (e.g., Counsyl and Panorama™), LifeLabs Genetics has made arrangements with third-party labs in other provinces, such as:
- Quebec – Biron Laboratoire Médical
- Manitoba – Diagnostic Services Manitoba (DSM)
- Alberta – DynaLIFE and Calgary Lab Services
Contact us for a full list of alternative labs/collection centres.
All kits submitted to LifeLabs Genetics must include a requisition form signed by your healthcare provider.
