Lab Testing
Organic Acids Test in Scottsdale to See How Your Metabolism Really Runs
When standard bloodwork keeps coming back “fine” but your energy, digestion or mood say otherwise, the Organic Acids Test is one of the most thorough next steps available. A single urine sample gives a detailed snapshot of how your metabolism is actually running, and at AZMulticare in Scottsdale. It comes with interpretation by the doctor who ordered it.
$475 includes your results review with Dr. Robinson, one first-morning urine sample collected at home, kit shipped to you.
What an Organic Acids Test Looks At
Energy & Nutrient Metabolism
How well you convert food into usable energy and process the nutrients you eat.
Oxidative Stress
Whether free-radical stress is out of hand in your tissues.
Gut Imbalance Markers
Patterns associated with gut overgrowth, including candida load.
Neurotransmitters & Hormones
How neurotransmitter and hormone-related pathways are behaving.
Like Reading the Exhaust of an Engine
Judging your metabolism from routine bloodwork alone is like diagnosing a car by checking a single gauge. The OAT reads the exhaust, the metabolic byproducts your body expels every day, for a picture that’s broad, informative and far more revealing.
That makes it a powerful first deep-dive when your symptoms are real but standard labs keep calling you healthy.
Who Should Consider the OAT
- Persistent fatigue or low energy that other testing has not explained
- Digestive symptoms: bloating, irregularity or food sensitivities that flare and fade
- Mood and focus struggles where you suspect something metabolic is contributing
- A complement to other functional testing: it pairs naturally with blood panels, GI MAP stool analysis or hormone work when one lens isn’t enough

Frequently Asked Questions
How much is an organic acids test in Scottsdale?
$475 for the OAT plus your results review with Dr. Robinson. One first-morning urine sample, collected at home, kit mailed to you.
Is the OAT a stool test or a blood test?
Neither. It’s a urine test. A single first-morning urine sample is enough to run the full metabolic panel, which is why it works well as a first deep-dive when you’re not sure where your symptoms originate.
What conditions can an organic acids test detect?
It doesn’t diagnose specific diseases; it surfaces functional imbalances, oxidative stress patterns, energy metabolism issues, markers associated with gut overgrowth or candida load, and nutrient processing gaps. Those findings then guide which targeted tests (if any) come next.
How long until I hear back?
Results are typically emailed to you and Dr. Robinson within 5–10 business days. Your follow-up review is part of the package from day one, so nothing sits unread in an inbox.
