Accurate testing results within a timely manner to support a safe workplace and community
Ensuring the health and safety of your patients, employees and community at large requires a complete and robust solution for fast COVID-19 screening.
To aid in the effort to combat the on-going COVID-19 pandemic, National Labs offers a full-service package that includes both front-end specimen collection as well as back-end testing support, all by a state-of-the-art lab using the most current technology and methods.
Partnering with counties, public health departments, hospitals, clinics, businesses, schools, and long term care facilities, we use the RT-PCR testing method under EUA (emergency use authorization) based on anterior nares, nasopharyngeal and saliva specimen types. We also look at 3 genetic markers, instead of just 2, which can capture known COVID variants while eliminating concern over false negatives.

Founder’s Statement
Hi. I’m Ron Perkes, founder of National Labs.
As a father of two children with Schizoaffective disorder, I’ve witnessed the profound struggles that severe mental illness can cause. My daughter Raquel passed away in 2019 after 15 years of battling her illness, and my son Justin has faced over 20 psychotic episodes and multiple hospitalizations since his diagnosis in 2001. These experiences have deeply shaped my mission to find solutions to help others avoid similar pain.
In 2013, I founded National Labs with a focus on supporting mental health patients by testing for medication compliance and identifying substance abuse, particularly in those who self-medicate. While I can’t change the past for my family, I am committed to helping others by detecting early signs of medication non-compliance and decompensation—before it’s too late. Early intervention can prevent the worst outcomes, from psychotic episodes and suicides to violence and incarceration.
At National Labs, we strive to make a meaningful difference—not just for patients but also for their families and communities. I’m incredibly proud of the work we do together and the contributions each team member brings. Our collective efforts are driven by a shared hope: identifying early warning signs, stabilizing episodes, and preventing irreversible harm.
It is my deepest hope that through our work, we can spare others the heartbreak my family has endured. Read more about my story here.
