Medical Courier Services for Southern California Practices
Your practice needs a medical courier service that works around your schedule, not the other way around. Pacific Medical Laboratory provides dependable specimen pickup throughout Southern California, helping physician offices, clinics, and healthcare facilities maintain efficient workflows without disrupting patient care.
Specimen Pickup Scheduled Around Your Office Hours
Reliable specimen transportation starts with dependable scheduling. Our medical courier service is designed to align with your practice’s operating hours, providing consistent pickups that fit naturally into your daily workflow.
Benefits of our courier program include:
- Scheduled recurring specimen pickups
- Reliable, on-time service
- Flexible pickup schedules based on practice needs
- Consistent routes for dependable transportation
- Reduced administrative burden for office staff
Temperature-Controlled & Specialty Transport
Proper specimen handling is critical to accurate laboratory results. Our medical specimen courier service follows strict transportation protocols to preserve sample integrity from pickup through delivery.
After-Hours Lock Box & STAT Pickups
Practice schedules don’t always align with standard courier routes. That’s why we offer flexible pickup solutions designed to support busy healthcare providers.
For practices that close before their scheduled pickup times, our after-hours lock box service keeps specimens secure until courier retrieval.
For time-sensitive testing, STAT courier services may also be available to expedite specimen transportation when urgent laboratory processing is required.*
*Availability of STAT pickup services may vary. Please contact Pacific Medical Laboratory to confirm service availability for your practice.

Our courier service supports practices by ensuring specimens move quickly into laboratory processing, while providers gain convenient access to completed reports through:
- EMR integration
- Secure electronic result delivery
- 24/7 clinician results portal
- Streamlined ordering and reporting workflows
