YOUR PATIENT SELF-TESTING PARTNER

PATIENT SELF TESTING is a division of Alternative Health Care Inc. (AHC). Established as a California corporation in 1983, AHC is a state of the art technology and disease management company specializing in innovative solutions for patients/physicians and clinics.
