Supportive Services

Laboratory Services
Full laboratory services on-site enable New Mexico Cancer Center doctors to have fast and accurate results from blood tests and urinalyses – both complete blood counts and comprehensive metabolic panels. The benefit for the patient is that he or she can have same-day treatments based on current information.  Additionally, patients don’t have to travel to other facilities for these services – they are available in the same building.
