Monitor Your Way to Better Health with Streu’s

Diagnostics & Screening

At Streu’s Pharmacy Bay Natural, we’re committed to providing health diagnostic, monitoring and screening services and products to help our customers take a more proactive role in their own health and wellness.

Health Diagnostics, Monitoring & Screening Services, Simplified

Our diagnostic products health screening services – on-site monitoring of blood pressure, cholesterol and hemoglobin A1c – and help people get the data they need to inform their lifestyle choices and better manage their healthcare needs.

While we cannot bill insurance for these services, they are low- or no-cost (often less than a co-pay for an in-clinic visit) and we can typically schedule people quickly and conveniently.

Our health screening services are ideal for those looking for additional, reliable monitoring and support in navigating their own health, especially if they have chronic conditions such as hypertension or diabetes. The public is welcome to use these services.

Blood Pressure Monitoring Services

The blood pressure monitoring machine in our retail store is available on a walk-in basis and open to the public during regular store hours. If you don’t know how to use it, don’t worry! Our retail store staff and on-site healthcare professionals are happy to guide you through the process, providing tips to get accurate readings and instructions for how to use the machine.

In addition, for a one-time cost of $5, you’ll receive a card you can use to track all of your blood pressure screening readings over time. The information is stored in a mobile app that can be accessed by you – and shared with your health providers – anytime.

Hemoglobin A1c Screening Services

An appointment is required for this medical screening service. Usually we can fit you in within a day or two and it is a simple finger prick which only takes a few minutes to complete.

This monitoring is especially helpful for diabetics who are working to closely monitor their blood sugar over time.

Other items to note:

  • There is a flat fee of $25 for this appointment (we are unable to bill insurance, but for some this is less than a typical co-pay)
  • This appointment is typically scheduled for the morning because requires you to fast for 10-12 hours in advance (water only)
  • The hemoglobin A1c number reflects your average blood sugar over the past 2-3 months, so many who use this service repeat it 4-5 times per year
