If you in need of a blood test or want to track your progress in reducing your cholesterol or health related issue, good news! AMBA is returning to Endwell on Saturday April 18th from 6-8am.

AMBA is a group of traveling medical professionals that do blood tests in association with Quest Diagnostics Wellness Programs out of West Amhurst, New York.  Once the results become available, you will receive a complete report by mail and a copy is sent to your doctor.

My doctor recommended AMBA because it was actually cheaper than my co-pay.  For $40.00 (they accept check or money order only), AMBA will do a thorough blood analysis covering coronary and kidney disease, diabetes, anemia, liver disease, and a series of other tests.  I do it twice a year to keep my cholesterol and triglyceride numbers in-check.  A 13 hour fast is recommended.

The Endwell League of Community Action is sponsoring one spring AMBA blood analysis session on Saturday April 18th from 6am-10am, at the Endwell United Methodist Church, 3301 Watson Boulevard in Endwell.  You must call to make your appointment at 1-800-234-8888.  Operators are available Monday-Friday 8:30am-5:00pm.  Please have your doctor's name and address available when you call.  Personal physician authorization may be required.  Here's to your health.
