Laboratory Services

Providing services to the medical staff and patients 24-hours-a-day seven-days-a-week, the Peach Regional Medical Center Laboratory offers testing in the areas of hematology, chemistry and urinalysis.

Tests not performed in our labs are referred to qualified reference laboratories.
