# When do I need to complete the lab work?

It is recommended that you complete your bloodwork as soon as reasonably possible, as it is required for your physician to generate your Personal Health Plan (PHP) — your initial report. The sooner your lab work is completed, the sooner you will be able to benefit from the insights provided in your PHP.

Note: Bloodwork is not required for your initial consultation with your LifestyleRx physician. The only requirement for that appointment is the completion of your Wellness Questionnaire.
