DEDEDO, Guam—Worksite Labs, a premier diagnostic laboratory company, is calling Guam home with the opening of its high-complexity laboratory and first of three patient service centers on June 12, 2023, at the Dededo Pay-Less Supermarket. The company is also partnering with Guam’s mayors and the Todu Guam Foundation to provide pop-up diagnostic centers to support relief efforts in the community.

“The opening of our first Worksite Labs Patient Service Center (PSC) in Guam was unfortunately delayed by Typhoon Mawar. However, during this period, we recognized the pressing needs of the community affected by the storm and decided to extend our support beyond the confines of our site. By collaborating with the mayors’ offices, we established pop-up medical testing sites and formed a partnership with the Todu Guam Foundation to offer diagnostic services as part of their medical outreach initiative. Our intention is to invest in the community and provide our services where they were most needed after the devastating storm,” stated Gary Frazier, founder and CEO of Worksite Labs. He further announced, “We are thrilled to share that our first PSC, located within the Dededo Pay-Less Supermarket, officially opened its doors on June 12, and we are now welcoming new customers.”

Worksite Labs is a national healthcare diagnostics and technology company that delivers fast, reliable results by placing full-service labs where they’re needed most. The company’s innovative decentralized laboratory model and advanced diagnostic testing capabilities, the only one of its kind, give customers superior access to important healthcare services directly into communities so residents can make informed decisions about their well-being.

Worksite Labs opened its first Guam PSC in the Dededo Pay-Less Supermarket on June 12. The company has plans to open two more PSCs at the Guam Medical Plaza and the Yigo Pay-Less Supermarket and its main lab at Guam Regional Medical Center in the coming months. Worksite Labs operates in 23 major cities, seven states, and Guam.

“We are a new generation of diagnostic laboratory testing. Our model aims to positively impact every Guam resident, healthcare provider, and health system to give patients greater power over their health and wellbeing,” said Frazier. “We are pleased to bring labs into the villages to serve our Guam community and provide access to quality healthcare through the delivery of quick, affordable, and trusted diagnostic testing for all.”

Frazier added, “We bring quality, affordable testing services to where our customers live, work, and play. In Guam, our PSC locations were selected to best serve the most populated areas on the island. Our Dededo Pay-Less PSC is now open, and we are working to open another two PSCs and our main lab within the months ahead to provide even greater convenience for our customers. We are looking to open more locations later this year to better serve the community.”

Access for all

Worksite Labs expanded to Guam as an opportunity to provide better access directly to where those diagnostic services are needed. The company’s model will bring the speed and agility of a localized lab and the technology and service of a national laboratory network to Guam. During the soft opening of the Worksite Labs Dededo Pay-Less location, Worksite Labs is offering a curated list of testing. The test menu can be found on its website at guam.worksitelabs.com.

Worksite Labs is credentialed to work with all local insurance plans on Guam—Calvo’s SelectCare, TakeCare, NetCare, StayWell, Medicare, Medicaid, MIP (Medically Indigent Program), and soon TRICARE. Customers can make an appointment online at guam.worksitelabs.com or are welcome to walk into the new Worksite Labs Patient Service Center at the Dededo Pay-Less.
