Overall Rating: 3.9 / 5 (Very good)

DirectLabs offers an extensive range of lab tests from the most basic to the most comprehensive. Their service is not only convenient, but also fast, affordable, and accurate. Although the company's website is in need of a design update, their prices and the comprehensiveness of their service give them an edge over competitors offering more bells and whistles. We highly recommend DirectLabs for anyone looking for a good selection of rare or specialty lab tests online.

DirectLabs Services

Services - 4.4 / 5

DirectLabs offers one of the most comprehensive range of individual blood tests and packages we have reviewed thus far. Their selection includes everything from your standard CBC and blood glucose tests to comprehensive hormone balance and other specialty labs. Among those rarer tests are a host of food and chemical sensitivity tests for babies, vegetarians, prescription users, etc., comprehensive urine or stool sample analysis with microscopic examination, a telomere length test, an adrenocortex stress profile, and the list goes on. These tests cab be purchased individually or as bundles and DirectLabs invariably provides sample test results for each. This last detail is quite useful, particularly for those who want to know exactly what the test involves and how readable the results will be.

I have used this service for about 3 years. Originally I had good customer service, and the prices were reasonable. Over the past year they upgraded the website to something difficult to navigate, hard to find tests, and the prices that reflect the cost of the upgrade. Once I found what I was looking for a few months back, the order was placed, I scheduled an appointment to have my blood drawn, and the only delay was with the local labs, scheduling about 2 weeks out.

As a non medical professional and not having a primary care physician I wanted basic blood work just to see if anything changed in the past 10 years. I performed an online search and came across DirectLabs. I was shocked and excited to find out that I could order my own tests, pay with a credit card, print out the script, then go to a local affiliated lab. I logged back into DirectLabs and saw my results within a day or two. The process was seamless. Thanks DirectLabs!

The labs are fine, costs are reasonable, but you can not reach customer service. Customer Service is just terrible. Just tried for the 12th time to reach someone there. No call back, no response to emails. Embarrassingly bad CS
