Laboratory services
Laboratory services and outpatient Blood Draw Stations at several convenient locations:
Important Note:
Effective May 22, 2024, Ellis Medicine had closed Mohawk Harbor and McClellan Street Health Center Outpatient Lab/Blood Draw locations. To continue receiving lab services, please visit any of the alternative locations listed below—no appointment necessary.
This update allows us to enhance operational efficiency in today’s competitive healthcare environment and to reinvest in services at other facilities.
Please note, this change will not impact our established primary care patients who have Ellis PCP bloodwork scripts. If you are an established patient with a PCP script, you may still have your blood work done at your primary care office if preferred.
We apologize for any inconvenience.
