Every test comes with the answers, not just the numbers

  • Your full results

    Every marker the lab measures, posted to My Lab Results the moment they release — yours to keep, download and compare over time.

  • A written Report of Findings

    Not a PDF of reference ranges. A Report of Findings that turns your numbers into what's out of balance, why it matters and what to do first — the interpretation most clinics charge extra for, included with every test.

  • Dr. Vaughn's Brain, 24/7

    Secure access to our proprietary AI, built on Dr. Vaughn's root-cause approach, that has already read your results. Ask why one marker is high, what a pattern means, what to change first — as many times as you want, whenever you want.
