Lab Results
If labs are processed at MFM, please allow 5 days for results. Please allow 7 days for those done at LabCorp.
​
-
Please note that facilities like the hospital, LabCorp, or Quest may send your results to you as soon as they are back, even before they have been reviewed by a provider. We ask that patients do not call about these results as a provider will be reviewing them and be in touch with you as soon as possible.
-
We prioritize results so the most urgent and critical results are called first.
-
We encourage patients to use the portal as this is a fast way to receive results from your provider.
-
Stool samples can sometimes take at least a week to result. It may be faster if done at the hospital.
-
Pap smears take 1-2 weeks to result.
Please also note that labs sent to the portal may say they are within normal limits, but you will see a slight abnormality in the value. There are many scenarios where those abnormalities are still within normal limits. If you have specific questions or concerns, we encourage you to send a portal message to your provider.
