Visit to Suburban Diagnostics lokhandwala

Visited suburban diagnostics lokhandwala for a health check up and was really impressed by their new building and set up . It has the technology and efficiency i had only seen at ambani hospital . So before you enter you get a coupon . There are 4 counters and you can see if you number and counter on the big screen over head.As soon as you register and pay you are called for the blood test (never seen this efficiency in any other place in mumbai ) . It also has audiometry,vision checking,cardiology testing ECG,stress test,BMD(bone testing).With the rush becoming too much at the ambani hospital will keep this place in mind for similar tests http://www.suburbandiagnostics.com/ Andheri (West) - Main Lab Ms. Vrinda Kamath,  Centre Manager 2 nd  Floor, Sunshine Bldg., Opp. Shastri Nagar, Andheri (West), Mumbai - 400053.

 Males - If uncircumcised, retract foreskin. Wipe the end of the penis  As the urine begins to flow, allow a small amount to fall into the toilet bowl. This clears the urethra of contaminants.

Once an adequate amount of urine has filled the cup, around a half cup, remove the cup from the urine stream. Pass the remaining urine into the toilet. Replace the lid on the cup.
