His basis was his first blood extraction with them which he said did not hurt at all. My son bravely announced that if it’s the same laboratory he was going to have his blood extraction done, then he’s okay. The medical technologists who do the extractions at Hi-Precision Diagnostics are really good. I already had a bad feeling about my son’s fever, given that it hardly responded to his paracetamol medication and the sponge baths that we gave him. So we went to the laboratory first thing the following morning. Unfortunately, I called late in the afternoon, so their next day schedule was already filled up. I could have been accommodated if I called a day earlier. This card also serves as a discount card, 10% off on all laboratory tests.Īs I mentioned in my previous Dengue post, I called the laboratory to schedule for a home service blood extraction. My son’s blood type is printed on the covered portion of his card (above photo). The Hi-Precision Diagnostics Patient Card serves as his blood type card as well. This earned him his Hi-Precision Diagnostics Patient Card. During our first visit, I also had my son’s blood and Rh (Rhesus Factor) typing done, while he was already there for blood testing anyway. I was asked to fill out the Patient Registration Slip as soon as we got there. Even if the doctor won’t request for a laboratory test, with the Dengue fever incidents in the Philippines growing at such alarming rate, it really is better to be safe. That’s just me being prudent and practical. I always choose to have the necessary laboratory result ready when we go to the doctor. Whenever I go to have my son’s blood tested, I always get asked if I had a doctor’s request. So our default was to their main branch in Del Monte Avenue, Quezon City. I still did not know before that they have a branch in Pasig, or if it was already open then. Hi-Precision Diagnostics has a total of 14 branches. We first had our son take the Dengue NS1 test when he had fever last June. As promised, I am giving a more detailed entry about Hi-Precision Diagnostics Laboratory‘s role in the early detection of our son’s bout with Dengue fever.
