The 3 steps
Pay online. Pick a test on a lab store's website and pay for it there.
Give a sample. Visit a partner lab location, or book a mobile blood draw where offered.
See your results online. Results are posted to your account on the lab store's site. Personalabs, for example, says results take 24-48 hours.

Do I need a doctor's visit to order my own blood test?
No, in most states you pay online and go straight to the lab. New York, New Jersey, Rhode Island and Hawaii require a clinician's order, and Maryland allows it with limits.
Is there an extra fee besides the test price?
Some lab stores add a physician fee per order; others include the doctor's order in the test price. Check each partner's price page for the current fee.
