The speed of modern health screening. The rigor of a pathologist-led laboratory behind every result. From everyday wellness to specialist diagnostics — delivered where people live.
NovaLabs unites best-in-class diagnostic analyzers, cloud-connected information systems, and pathologist-led oversight into a single, accredited network — bringing laboratory-grade testing closer to our communities without compromising on quality.
Our innovation is in the delivery, and our priority is accessibility — bringing accredited testing closer to our communities. We integrate cutting-edge point-of-care analyzers and cloud-based information systems into a distributed hub-and-spoke network to enable test results in hours, not days. Every test is performed under accredited quality control and the supervision of our pathologists. And we prioritize public health safety.
More than thirty years of accredited diagnostic operational experience stand behind this network, governed by experienced pathologists and held to ISO 15189 and BC DAP standards — proven discipline applied to a forward-thinking model.
Our principles shape more than how we test — they guide who we serve, how we partner, and where we reinvest. NovaLabs is built around four commitments.
Canadian-Owned and Operated
Supporting local healthcare infrastructure and keeping ownership within Canadian control, with a long-term commitment to the province’s healthcare needs.
Mission-Driven Organization
A social mandate that designates a portion of our net profit toward rural healthcare accessibility and underserved communities across British Columbia.
Inclusive Practitioner Access
Open to licensed healthcare practitioners — physicians, naturopathic doctors, TCM practitioners, and pharmacists — expanding access to quality diagnostics.
Point-of-Care Network Model
Prioritizing community access and specimen integrity through distributed testing under centralized clinical oversight — results delivered in the community.
Centralized clinical oversight, distributed community access — medical-grade results at the point of care.
Our ISO 15189 and BC DAP accredited central laboratory serves as the strategic hub for the NovaPoint point-of-care network, coordinating medical direction, quality standards, and regulatory compliance across our distributed community sites. Under the clinical leadership of Drs. Romney, Masoudi, and Chong Kit, the Richmond Oversight Lab ensures consistent clinical protocols and maintains the highest standards of laboratory medicine throughout the NovaPoint network.
Live and operational, providing molecular and chemistry panels directly in a community pharmacy setting — pathologist-led testing in the everyday flow of community health.
Our next NovaPoint community wellness site, extending convenient general medical testing into the Mount Pleasant neighbourhood.
A NovaPoint general wellness testing site co-located within a community medical clinic, bringing same-day diagnostics to patients and practitioners.
Our established fertility laboratory, operating for over three decades under its own DAP accreditation and the medical direction of Dr. Chong Kit. NovaVita provides semen analysis and DNA fragmentation testing under WHO-compliant protocols, processed onsite within the sixty-minute window that time-sensitive reproductive testing requires.
Testing happens where samples are collected. Co-locating collection and processing removes the transport variables that can compromise results for time-sensitive assays.
Immediate onsite processing eliminates wait times, delivering same-day results — typically within two to four hours rather than three to five days.
Specimen and test integrity are preserved through the full pre-analytical phase under ISO 15189 quality systems, with WHO-compliant handling for time-sensitive assays such as semen analysis.
