Questions to ask before choosing

These are specific to Wellness Labs programs — the primary service overlap between Life Extension and Modern Thyroid Clinic.

1Is a physician order required, or can I order panels directly?
2Are results reviewed with a clinician, or returned raw with no interpretation?
