Our Story

Operating now for over 35 years, we continue to be a trusted partner in the reproductive community and remain one of the only FDA-Registered laboratories offering donor screening. We have recently expanded to offer at-home testing, making health testing more accessible to more people who need it.

A History Rooted in Experience

Dr. Julio M. Cortes and his wife Eduvigis, experienced infertility first-hand. They gave birth to the first baby born in the US of a singleton pregnancy after an experimental trial of Pergonal.

Unilab Founded

With over 40 years of experience in reproductive health, and a passion to help other couples struggling with fertility, Dr. Julio M. Cortes was uniquely positioned to create a lab specializing in endocrine testing and in-cycle monitoring.

It's All in The Family

Dr. Cortes' son, Julio, current president, joined Unilab in 1991, supporting his father's mission to help couples experiencing reproductive challanges. Julio has led Unilab through many technological innovations and is thrilled to lead the team through the launch of at-home testing.

Reproductive Donor Testing

Unilab began infectious disease testing  in 2005, launching a comprehensive donor test. Unilab remains one of the few  FDA-registered laboratories for donor screening, and a trusted partner in the reproductive community.

At-Home Health Testing

Our recent partnership with RedDrop has allowed us to expand our health test menu. With our novel at-home blood collection device, people can now order and collect their own blood sample from the convenience of their home. We remain focused on providing excellent service and delivering reliable and fast results to our customers.
