Vandalia Health’s Davis Medical Center and Broaddus Hospital are proud to support American Heart Month by offering a discounted comprehensive lab panel throughout February — helping community members take a proactive step in monitoring their heart health at an affordable price.

For just $50, individuals can receive a Complete Blood Count (CBC), Basic Metabolic Panel, Hemoglobin A1C, CRP Inflammatory and Lipid Panel — a substantial savings on these essential tests. This preventive screening provides valuable insights into overall health, including blood sugar levels, cholesterol and key metabolic functions.

No appointment is necessary. Individuals may simply visit DMC and Broaddus Hospital walk-in labs during regular business hours. Payment is required at the time of service.

“This American Heart Month, we encourage all residents to take advantage of our special discounted heart screenings,” said Kelly Ball, Lab Director, Davis Health System. “Early detection can save lives, and this is a great opportunity to prioritize your well-being.”
