Dr. Barley can provide accurate, same day medical testing through our in-house medical laboratory in NYC. Rather than taking a sample and having to send it out for testing, Dr. Barley can send it directly to our on-site medical lab for testing. This in-house lab provides results much sooner because the samples do not have to be sent to an outside medical testing lab. Dr. Barley can screen for a variety of illnesses in our medical testing laboratory. With the information from our in-house lab, Dr. Barley is able to treat you or refer you to an appropriate physician sooner.

Can the in-house medical lab diagnose Lyme disease?
Dr. Barley’s internal medicine office also has a premier Lyme disease testing lab. Typical symptoms of Lyme disease include fever, headache, fatigue, and a skin rash. If Lyme disease is not properly treated, it can spread and affect your joints, heart, and even nervous system. A Lyme disease screening can help rule out this possibility and provide Dr. Barley with information to create a proper treatment regimen. Our Lyme disease lab is one of the nation’s best and most effective medical labs that can help diagnose Lyme disease, as well as other tick diseases such as Babesia or Ehrlichiosis.
Another tick-borne disease, Babesia is caused by small parasites that infect red blood cells which are spread by some ticks. Fortunately, Babesia is both treatable and preventable. Ehrlichiosis is a bacterial illness that is also transmitted by ticks that can cause flu-like symptoms. It is important to undergo routine physicals and testing such as Lyme disease screening to catch any illness in its earliest stages. Early detection of an illness means that the sickness may respond better to treatment. Dr. Barley can help diagnose and treat the majority of diseases and illnesses, but Dr. Barley is also connected with some of the best surgeons, physicians, and hospitals both nationally and internationally that he can refer you to if he feels you would be better treated by another doctor.
