Complementary and alternative medicine

Aotea Pathology offers laboratory testing services for complementary and alternative medicine (CAM).

CAM is a group of medical and health care systems, practices and products not generally considered part of conventional medicine.

For information about laboratory testing services for CAM, or to become registered with Aotea Pathology as a CAM laboratory requestor, please contact our customer liaison manager on (04) 381 5979, or our project manager on (04) 381 5968.

Please note: Our laboratory testing uses validated methods and accredited processing systems but we do not provide clinical advice on test selection or interpretation for CAM testing.

Selecting the appropriate test and interpreting results is best done by qualified medical practitioners and as part of a proper medical assessment. Always seek the advice of a doctor for this.
