If you’ve been putting off cholesterol labs, do it now while you can save.
Cholesterol and other blood lipids play an important role in your overall heart health—but high cholesterol often has no symptoms. Many people feel completely fine and have no idea their levels are elevated until it begins contributing to more serious problems like heart disease, stroke, or poor circulation.
That is why routine screening matters.
As part of Steele Memorial Medical Center’s Annual Health Fair (April 1–30), we are offering reduced-cost cholesterol testing:
✅ Lipids (fasting) — $30
This test measures key blood fats such as total cholesterol, LDL (“bad” cholesterol), HDL (“good” cholesterol), and triglycerides to help you better understand your heart health risk.
✅ Lipids + Comprehensive (fasting) — $50
This option provides your cholesterol panel along with a broader look at important health markers, giving you even more information about your overall wellness.
These tests are quick, affordable, and well worth it—especially if you have a family history of heart disease, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, diabetes, or stroke, or if you simply want the peace of mind that comes from knowing where you stand.
In a rural community like ours, access to affordable preventive care is important. This is one way Steele Memorial Medical Center works to make essential health services more accessible close to home, so cost does not become a reason to keep putting off care.
If you’ve been waiting for the right time, this is it.
