Ulta Lab Tests review: price, lab and privacy

Discount lab-test store using Quest; low single-test prices, no membership.

By Julian Caraulani · Last updated

Quick answer
Ulta Lab Tests scores 8.4/10 on our published score, #5 of 21. It does not publish an all-in price. Best for people who know which tests they want and want the lowest single-test prices at Quest. The main trade-off: a $12.95 standard draw fee is added at checkout on every collection (more at some sites), so list prices are not all-in.
