Spiro Stat Technologies, L.P. provides laboratory
diagnostic testing to health care practitioners to enable them to
better identify spirochete organisms and possible co-infections in
their patients. Patients infected with spirochete organisms may
exhibit manifestations of infection which can include arthritis, carditis, and neurologic deficits and an array of different
symptoms.
Spiro Stat uses modern molecular diagnostic approaches that have been
validated under stringent criteria. All laboratory testing is
performed in a CLIA licensed and CAP certified facility.
