When your physician orders outpatient laboratory work, you may go to the outpatient laboratory at the University of Tennessee (UT) Medical Center where blood or other samples can be collected. Dynacare – Tennessee operates UT Medical Center’s laboratories in a partnership with University Health System Inc.

Your physician should give you a completed Dynacare – Tennessee Outpatient Laboratory Order Form or a hospital outpatient laboratory order form that will include the name of the test(s) ordered, diagnosis and the doctor’s signature. This information is required before blood samples for laboratory tests can be obtained.

Outpatient Laboratory Hours

Outpatients are served from 6 a.m. to 11 p.m., seven days a week at the Dynacare-Tennessee laboratories.

• Monday through Friday—Outpatient Laboratory, Building C, Suite 155: 6 a.m. to 6 p.m.
• Weekends and after hours—Outpatients are served in the main Dynacare - Tennessee laboratories located in UT Medical Center.
