I had an emergency with my child and came in a Saturday afternoon. The waiting time was not bad, and the staff was super nice. My daughter was helped by the doctor and did not need to go to an emergency waiting room which saved us a lot of time. I will definitely come back here again if I have another emergency with my kids.

I went in because I’ve been feeling terrible trying to fight what I thought was a bad cold. When I arrived, Brittney, who has a wonderful attitude, got me all checked in and I didn’t wait long at all to be seen. Jalyn helped me get ready to see the doctor and she was so kind and helpful. Dr. John Davis was absolutely wonderful and made me feel better just by being in the room. He asked me questions about how I have been feeling and was able to diagnose me quickly. He was so incredibly nice and helpful. I was out of there in no time and I have your awesome team of professionals to thank for that! I will definitely return should the need arise in the future!

My son was showing signs of an eye infection and we were able to make an appointment within a couple hours to go in. The staff was incredibly friendly and took great care of him. Our only issue was that we waited over an hour past our appointment time before seeing anyone. Not sure why they still have appointments showing as available if they are running so far behind in schedule, and they don’t provide a ton of updates or information about how long the wait would be.

Was sent home from school with 101.4 temperature the day before.   Temperature kept rising and it hurt to breathe, laugh or cough.   Since I’m asthmati, I knew it was either bronchitis or pleurisy which I get every winter.   A coworker raved about this place so I dropped in!   Not disappointed!

Conroe CMP Tests

A CMP test measures the levels of 14 compounds in your blood to help you and your doctor learn more about your body's metabolism and chemical balance. A CMP test includes albumin, ALP, ALT, AST, total bilirubin, and total protein, as well as the eight tests that make up a basic metabolic panel (BUN, glucose, calcium, CO2, creatine, chloride, potassium, and sodium). CMP testing may be part of a routine physical examination or may be requested by your doctor to diagnose diabetes, liver disease, or renal disease.

The tests performed as part of a CMP can assess the following body functions and processes:

  • Metabolism
  • Blood sugar levels
  • Kidney function
  • Lung function
  • Blood acid and base balance
  • Protein levels
  • Electrolyte levels
  • Fluid levels
  • Organ function

A CMP test requires very little preparation. Fasting for eight to twelve hours prior to the surgery is required. Your doctor will also want you to provide a list of all over-the-counter, prescription, and nutritional supplements you're taking, as some of them may affect the findings of your tests. Dehydration, pregnancy, and eating or exercising right before the test all have the potential to skew the results.

The CMP test usually takes less than five minutes after a medical specialist collects a sample of your blood, which is then deposited in one or more vials. The vials are shipped to the lab for evaluation and analysis, with the results being emailed to the customer.

The risks of a CMP test are extremely low. Minor bruising and discomfort may develop at the injection site, although this usually subsides within a day or two. Some people may feel dizzy, lightheaded, or faint after a CMP test, which is normal.

The results of a CMP test are usually available within 24 hours, though depending on when your doctor calls you, you may have to wait longer. If any irregularities are discovered, your doctor may order more testing to rule out certain conditions or diagnose you with a health problem based on the aberrant results. Your doctor may also invite you to an appointment to discuss your treatment options.

CMP Test FAQs

  • What is a CMP blood test?

    A CMP blood test looks for 14 different compounds in your blood to help you and your doctor figure out if you have one or more major health issues. This test can assess your liver and kidney function as well as give information about your protein, calcium, and blood sugar levels. CMP tests are typically performed as part of a standard medical examination, but they can also be used to diagnose liver and kidney disease.

  • What is included in a comprehensive metabolic panel?

    A CMP entails looking at 14 different compounds. The aspects of the test that are reviewed are as follows:

    • Albumin (a liver protein)
    • Alkaline phosphatase (ALP)
    • Alanine aminotransferase (ALT)
    • Aspartate aminotransferase (AST)
    • Blood glucose
    • Blood urea nitrogen (BUN)
    • Calcium
    • Carbon dioxide (CO2)
    • Chloride
    • Creatinine
    • Potassium
    • Sodium
    • Total bilirubin (a waste product made by the liver)
    • Total protein
  • How much do CMP tests cost in Conroe?

    The cost of a CMP test is determined by a variety of factors, including provider costs, geographic location, and whether your health insurance covers it. The easiest way to find out how much a CMP test costs is to call the CMP provider directly or check with your health insurance provider to see if the test is covered.

  • Does insurance cover CMP testing in Conroe?

    Yes, many health insurance plans will cover some or all of the cost of a CMP test, especially if your doctor determines that it is medically necessary given your present health situation. Some CMP test providers may contact your insurance provider on your behalf to confirm coverage, but you should also check with your health provider before selecting a CMP provider.

  • Where should I get a comprehensive metabolic panel in Conroe?

    Many doctors will recommend you to the lab or hospital where they regularly work when referring you for a CMP. A CMP test, on the other hand, can be obtained from any healthcare practitioner who offers this service, including urgent care clinics, hospitals, and clinical laboratories. You may also use Solv to locate the best CMP testing companies in your area.

  • How long does it take to get CMP blood test results in Conroe?

    It can take anything from a few hours to a day for your CMP blood test results to arrive. Some CMP providers will contact you immediately when the results are ready and allow you to review them online, while others will send the data to your doctor. Inquire with the CMP provider about when your test results will be available.

  • What is the normal range for a comprehensive metabolic panel?

    The "typical" range for data in a CMP will vary significantly since different CMP providers may utilize different metrics. Total protein levels should be between 6.0 and 8.3 g/dL, with albumin levels between 3.4 and 5.4 g/dL. Inquire with the CMP provider about the specific ranges for each value in the test that they deem typical.

  • Do I need to see a doctor before getting a CMP test in Conroe?

    For this test, some CMP testing firms require a physician's reference, while others do not. Your doctor may prescribe a CMP test as part of a routine physical exam or if liver or renal illness is suspected. Check with the CMP provider to determine if you need a doctor's reference before making an appointment or showing up for the CMP test.

  • How can I book a CMP test through Solv?

    Solv is a quick and easy way to find high-quality CMP test providers in your area without having to do a lot of searching online. In the provider search field on our website, type "Comprehensive Metabolic Panel" or "CMP Test" and your location. Solv will then offer you a selection of the best CMP testing companies in your area, together with their contact information, so you can make an appointment right away.

  • Can I do at home CMP testing?

    Some companies sell CMP test kits online, but you may need to take them to a lab or a doctor's office to have them administered. In rare situations, a doctor may come to your home to collect a blood sample for the CMP test before sending it to the lab. Inquire with your doctor about whether at-home CMP testing is possible or feasible for you, based on your current health situation.
