Specimen Analysis at Home with American River Visiting Providers

Let Our Skilled Nurse Practitioners Obtain Samples and Run Tests While You Stay Safe and Comfortable at Home

But sometimes, your nurse practitioner needs to run specific medical tests in order to determine your overall health. American River Visiting Providers, as part of its house call service, is able to obtain and provide specimen analysis for all of our patients.

We make the process of obtaining and analyzing these samples safe, comfortable, and easy. Call us at 916-365-9100 or use our online form to connect with a doctor or nurse.
