Propel testing excellence with Mayo Clinic quality
Mayo Clinic Laboratories is a one-stop laboratory solution, offering commercial laboratories a vast testing menu, unparalleled customer service, and optimized processes. We work collaboratively with partners to assess their needs, providing the testing they need to expand into new areas and meet their business goals.
As the reference lab for Mayo Clinic, we’ve developed robust logistics and testing protocols applied uniformly for all specimens received, no matter their geographic origin. Whether you send us one test order or thousands, each sample receives the same treatment and level of care, ensuring superior results that help our partners better serve their clients.
“Our clients want personal experiences. They want someone to answer the phone. They want someone to provide answers when they're looking for results of a sample sent a couple days ago. and we deliver those answers.”

John Lieske, M.D., and Sandra Taler, M.D., explain how Mayo Clinic Laboratories' mass spectrometry assay helps evaluate patients for resistant hypertension. The test can detect antihypertensive medications in urine, providing evidence of whether patients are actually absorbing their medications or whether a new approach might be needed.
Mayo Clinic Laboratories’ newly expanded Hereditary Pancreatitis Gene Panel is transforming how clinicians diagnose and manage a complex, often elusive disease. Developed through close collaboration between lab scientists, genetic counselors, and clinicians, the test uses a whole exome sequencing backbone to analyze nine carefully selected genes with strong clinical relevance. This focused approach avoids ambiguous results while empowering early diagnosis, cancer risk assessment, and family testing. Built on a whole exome backbone with reflex capabilities, the panel represents a major step forward in precision medicine — offering clarity for patients and providers, and a platform for future genomic innovation.
When introducing a new initiative in the medical laboratory environment, effective change management is essential.
