My physician told me to have my water tested for fluoride and/or nitrates. Can you help me?
The state laboratory will test your private drinking water supply for nitrates or fluoride. Sample kits may be obtained at our office, filled at home and mailed directly to the lab, or returned to our office for courier pick up. You will be billed directly by the state and you should receive your results within two weeks. If you do not receive your results within two weeks, contact the lab at 573-751-3334.
