About Apollo Laboratories:
Apollo Laboratories is a full-service, state-of-the-art, customer service-focused, forensic urine drug testing, hematology, and blood chemistry laboratory.

This superior technology allows Apollo to differentiate more than 60 analytes in less than seven minutes with sensitivity that is magnitudes better than most large national laboratories. In addition, Coulter LH500 Hematology analyzers and Roche Cobas 6000 machines are used for blood chemistry and immunoassays. Through industry-leading science and technology, Apollo provides rapid, objective documentation of the patient's compliance with their respective treatment plans, in a report that is easy to read and interpret.
