Before the Blood Test:

  • Your blood test requisition form should have been emailed to you. It is usually attached to the bottom of your invoice after your consult.

  • Bring this form with you to the lab on your test day.

  • Ulta Labs uses Quest Diagnostics for blood draws. Your requisition form will specify the correct lab.

  • Schedule your appointment online to avoid long wait times: Quest Appointment Scheduling.

  • When booking your lab, confirm that it performs "Health & Wellness Screens"—this will be indicated during scheduling.

Instructions for Thyroid Blood Tests (on Supplemental Support):

  • Take your Thyro Balance or thyroid hormone first thing in the morning.

  • Wait 30 minutes before eating.

  • Schedule your blood draw for 2–3 hours after taking your thyroid support.

    • Example: If you take Thyro Balance at 7:00 AM, schedule the blood draw between 9:00–10:00 AM.

  • This timing helps assess peak thyroid hormone levels accurately.

Instructions for All Other Blood Tests (Non-Thyroid):

  • You must fast for 8–12 hours before the test (no food after 8:00 PM the night before).

  • Complete the blood draw first thing in the morning, especially if you have blood sugar concerns.

  • No supplements or hormones should be taken before your test unless otherwise instructed on your protocol sheet.

  • Water is allowed and encouraged to prevent dehydration.

Day of the Test:

  • Bring your lab requisition form (check your emailed invoice for the attachment).

  • Drink water beforehand.

  • For thyroid testing only, you may eat after taking your thyroid support (wait 30 minutes, then eat).

After the Blood Draw:

  • Results are typically available within 3–7 business days.

  • Ask the lab to email you a copy of your results.

  • Schedule your follow-up consultation with Dr. Justin to review your results: Schedule a Consult
