Clinical content is reviewed by our MD Laboratory Director — a role that CLIA requires a high-complexity laboratory to have. The director's name is on file in the CMS CLIA database under #45D2048957 and can be verified independently. The director oversees the laboratory's testing and quality system; the physician who sees patients is an independent licensed clinician in our partner network, not a laboratory employee, and treatment decisions are theirs.

Our editorial rules
| Rule | Why |
|---|---|
| We name drugs. We never publish doses. | Dosing depends on the organism, your history, allergies, pregnancy and kidney function. It is not a web-page decision |
| Every treatment statement is attributed | CDC, IDSA, ACG, AGA, AUA, ACOG, SAMHSA, ASAM — cited and linked |
| Every path ends with a licensed physician | This site is health information, not a diagnosis or a prescription |
| We publish what does not need treating | Asymptomatic bacteriuria, Ureaplasma colonization, viral gastroenteritis, STEC. Saying "no antibiotic" is part of the job |
| We state what our tests cannot do | A routine respiratory panel does not subtype H5. A stool test cannot diagnose SIBO. A cannabis result is not impairment |
| No prices on the site | What you need varies. Text us and get a real number for your situation |
Sources we rely on
CDC (STI treatment guidelines, HIV, influenza, foodborne illness, opioid prescribing), IDSA (UTI, infectious diarrhea, asymptomatic bacteriuria), ACG and AGA (H. pylori, IBD, probiotics), AUA (recurrent UTI), ACOG (UTI in pregnancy), NIDDK, SAMHSA and ASAM (drug testing), CMS and CAP (laboratory standards). Every one is public, and every one is linked from the page that relies on it.
Corrections
If you believe something on this site is wrong, tell us: info@auspiciouslab.com. We will check it against the source and correct it. A medical site that has never corrected anything is not careful — it is not paying attention.
Same day, start to finish. Sample by 1:00 PM → results at 4:30 PM → if treatment is clinically appropriate, a licensed physician in our partner network sees you between 4:30 and 6:00 PM, a few minutes away. That window is reserved for patients tested here, and your slot is held the moment we take your sample — the slot is held, not hunted. On your own, a same-day appointment is nearly impossible; at an urgent care, you wait in the queue. STAT: ~2 hours, sample in by 3:00 PM.
FAQ
- Why is the reviewing physician not named?
- The MD Laboratory Director is a CLIA-mandated, CMS-registered role — verifiable through the public CLIA database under #45D2048957. That is a stronger form of accountability than a name on a web page, because you can check it against a federal record.
- Is this site medical advice?
- No. It is health information. Diagnosis and treatment come from a licensed physician who examines you.
- Why do you never publish doses?
- Because a dose without a patient is dangerous. We name the drug classes the guidelines name, and we stop there.
- How do I report an error?
- Email info@auspiciouslab.com. We take it seriously.
