Can my iron level be tested when i see my doctor?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
When UR where?: If ur already having blood test done at a hospital, lab, clinic or dr's office some blood can be drawn for an iron level. Same applies, if ur visiting any health care facility where blood can be drawn. However it will need to be ordered by a health care professional & requisition made before any blood is drawn.
