Lilium Diagnostics Tests

Results are available same day in most cases (otherwise results are available within 3 business days).

Password protected results will be emailed to you at the email that you will provide to us.

If you cannot find your results, please email us at info@liliumdiagnostics.com so we can help you to retrieve your results. We monitor our emails until 9:00 p.m. daily (Monday - Saturday).

You need to bring your RAMQ health card (if you have one) to your appointment, and your method of payment (we accept credit cards, debit cards, ApplePay and cash).

Please do not eat at least 2 hours (preferably 4 hours) before a test, and avoid alcohol for 24 hours before any test.

For urine tests, you should abstain from sexual intercourse for 24 hours before sampling, and avoid sampling during and up to 2 days after menstruation.

Most private insurances will reimburse private diagnostic laboratory tests, but generally only up to a certain amount.

Doing your testing at Lilium means your out of pocket costs will be significantly lower, guaranteed*. We will provide a receipt that you can submit to your private insurance for reimbursement.

Lilium is a licensed and accredited laboratory (please note that most clinics do not have their own laboratory, but send the collected samples to one of the handful of laboratories such as ours), and we have recently setup our own private collection centers. By providing laboratory services directly to consumers like yourself, our wholesale prices allow you to save money.

We pride ourselves in being able to help our communities by providing high-end testing at the best prices, and have designed and thought about every detail of how to achieve this. We have invested heavily into the latest technologies, automation, designs and processes that translate to faster time to results and lower costs.

Lab tests can be performed at various levels of quality. We aim to always invest in the highest quality for each test (i.e. some of the highest quality test components, processes, equipment, and quality control), and we do not cut corners with our lab tests. For example, for our Covid antibody test, we test for both the Spike RBD and Nucleoprotein to give a more complete result (most other labs only test one of these, or charge you twice to test each one individually). And our standard STD test (which is a PCR test instead of a less accurate rapid antigen test) for chlamydia and gonorrhea includes testing for trichomonas, a STD parasite that is the most common cause of STI-associated vaginitis.

During Covid we built a reputation for providing high-end lab testing at the best prices in the industry. We were one of the only labs that tested each patient's sample individually, instead of combining many different patients' samples together (and testing them together) that many other labs did to save time and money. Since we tested every single sample individually, we were able to provide the Ct value of the sample (the Ct for both the sample itself and the Ct for any detected SARS-CoV-2) in each test report, something that we are not aware any other lab in Canada provided. In addition to quantitative RT-PCR results, our laboratory earned a reputation for excellence in the speed of its results, which has earned it the trust of healthcare professionals across the country.

Our ultimate aim is to provide the best laboratory tests in the country, at the best prices and fastest turn-around times. We will continue to invest our resources for continuous improvements to achieve this goal.
