The Doc Lab® difference
Why Partners Choose Doc Lab
Choosing a laboratory partner is a long-term decision. Doc Lab® works with physician practices, specialty groups, hospital labs, and independent reference labs, bringing clinically proven science and proprietary reagents to every partnership. The result is a foundation built to last, so your lab can grow its testing with a partner you can trust.
Real Partnership. Proven Science. Proprietary Reagents.
A Laboratory Partner, Not a Vendor
We measure success by thriving labs, not equipment placed. No two labs share the same clients, payers, jurisdiction, or goals, so there's no standard package. Doc Lab starts with a conversation to understand where your lab is today, then builds a plan that fits.
For a physician practice opening an in-office lab, that can mean turnkey setup from planning to go-live. For an established lab, it can mean targeted support where you need it most. For independent reference labs, it can mean compliant structures that keep your testing programs running, including hosting, supply agreements, administrative agreements, and send-out to SoftCell Laboratories, a Doc Lab-owned company. Whatever the structure, you work with one partner and one dedicated team.
Evidence You Can Stand Behind
Our science doesn't stop at development. It's proven. Our proprietary UTI PCR reagents were evaluated in a completed multicenter, investigator-blinded, prospective randomized clinical trial (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT06996301) demonstrating clinical validity and documented improvement in patient outcomes. The results have been published in several peer-reviewed papers, and ongoing and upcoming trials continue to expand the evidence behind our testing.
That evidence gives your lab documented clinical utility to share with payers and auditors, and gives your physicians confidence in the results they act on. Partner labs may also have the opportunity to take part in future studies, helping build the evidence behind the testing your physicians rely on.
Proprietary Reagents and Assays
Our core reagents and assays are developed to Doc Lab's own specifications through years of rigorous R&D, with every formulation engineered, tested, and refined against exacting performance standards before it reaches your lab. Because the science is our own, we control every detail that shapes performance. That control means exceptional quality, tighter batch-to-batch consistency, and faster resolution when something needs attention. It also means technical support from the people who built the chemistry, not a call center reading from a manual. When you have a question, you reach experts who understand not just what our assays do, but why they work.
Support Built Around Your Lab
Every lab needs a different level of support, so we build your plan around the way your lab works. Plans can include hands-on training, competency programs, and proactive QC oversight. For labs that want more involvement, expanded services are available, including lab director and technical supervisor oversight, on-site inspection preparation, and market access support. You choose the level of support, and we'll help you find the right fit.

Run It In-House, Send It Out, or Both
Doc Lab supports in-house testing programs including UTI Max, TrueUA™, Vaginitis PCR, STI PCR, Quad RPP, blood hormone testing, and UTI Express™, with MiCheck® Prostate available on a case-by-case basis. For testing your lab chooses to send out, SoftCell Laboratories, a Doc Lab-owned company, accepts samples for our full test menu. Set it up, send it out, or do both. We'll customize a solution for your lab.
Find Your Fit
Every specialty and lab setting has its own testing priorities. Explore how Doc Lab supports urology, nephrology, OB/GYN, multi-specialty groups, and independent reference labs, whether you set up testing in-house or send it out.
