Laboratory Services

Certified Medical Chemistry Laboratory.

Whether it's a routine lab test, such as a Prothrombin Time, or a more technologically advanced test for detecting disease, such as the Fish Eurovision test, Pittsburgh Cardiovascular Institute provides patients with the convenience of a comprehensive laboratory-testing menu within our own outpatient facility. Our standard operating procedures place the patient's needs at the core of our outpatient practice.

Pittsburgh Cardiovascular Institute has built its reputation by providing the highest quality of care along with an extensive list of routine and esoteric testing to help our physicians diagnose, treat, and monitor disease in the comfort of our own office. Our diagnostic testing facility enables physicians to spend more time diagnosing and treating patients - leading to more effective and efficient patient encounters. This ultimately enhances the quality of care in our medical office.

All patient tests are performed at our local laboratory, located in Monroeville, PA. Our experienced, professional medical assistants and laboratory technicians provide the local and personalized account service that our patients deserve. Our staff is committed to providing a professional environment for each patient during the specimen collection process.
