The annual AMBA blood screening, hosted by the Watkins-Montour Rotary Club, is still taking appointments for the upcoming event at the Clute Park Community Center on Saturday, November 2 from 6:00 am to 10:00 am.

Quest Diagnostics will perform the blood tests, screening for coronary, kidney and liver diseases, as well as anemia. The service costs $59, including a $15 specimen collection fee. An additional $5 donation will be requested during the event to support local projects in Schuyler County.

To secure an appointment, individuals must call (800) 234-8888 Monday through Friday from 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM. A physician’s name and address are required upon registration, and participants must show photo identification at check-in. Additional tests, such as for vitamin D and prostate-specific antigen, are available for an additional charge with a doctor’s order.
