Location Map
TestMark DNA schedules legal DNA collections at 3665 East Tremont Avenue, Bronx, NY 10465, a two-story building on the corner of Philip Avenue in Throggs Neck. The Bx40 and Bx42 buses run along East Tremont Avenue past the site, and TestMark DNA orders the test and books your visit before you arrive.
Philip Avenue meets East Tremont Avenue at this corner in Throggs Neck, and the two-story building at 3665 East Tremont is where TestMark DNA schedules chain-of-custody DNA collections in the southeast Bronx. City property records also list the lot as 2900-2910 Philip Avenue, so the side-street numbers lead to the same building. A primary care physician's practice uses the 3665 East Tremont address as well. Before anyone arrives, TestMark DNA places the order, prepares the chain-of-custody forms and books the visit, so each adult and child named on the test comes in ready for the collector. For anyone on the case who lives in the north Bronx, the nearest other TestMark DNA site in the borough is on Eastchester Road; ask about it when you call.
Bx40 and Bx42 buses both run along East Tremont Avenue past Philip Avenue, so the corner is easy to reach without a car. Heading west, both routes pass Westchester Square, where riders can change for the 6 train at the Westchester Square–East Tremont Avenue station. Heading east, the Bx40 continues down Pennyfield Avenue to its last stop at Fort Schuyler, the historic fort that houses SUNY Maritime College, so riders from the tip of the peninsula stay on one bus all the way here. Schuylerville, between this corner and Westchester Square, is served by the same two routes.
TestMark DNA's Throggs Neck collection site is at 3665 East Tremont Avenue in the Bronx, on the corner of Philip Avenue.
DNA testing requirements in New York
New York is the one state where a DNA test cannot simply be self-ordered. Under New York State Department of Health rules, a paternity, maternity or other relationship test for a New York resident must be ordered by an authorized person, which means a licensed physician, an attorney or a court. Samples also have to be collected in person at an approved New York facility by a trained collector rather than taken at home. Paternity itself can be established by both parents signing an Acknowledgment of Paternity, or by an order of the Family Court under Family Court Act section 418, which can direct genetic testing. Because of the ordering requirement, New York residents should call before making any arrangements so we can confirm what your situation needs and how to obtain the order.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where can I get a DNA paternity test in Bronx, New York?
TestMark DNA has a certified collection site at 3665 E Tremont Ave, Bronx, New York 10465. We schedule chain-of-custody (legal) collections here for you, and results are typically returned in 3 to 5 business days.
Do I need a doctor's order or court order for DNA testing in New York?
A doctor's order is generally not required. However, if you are a New York State resident, a prescription, court order, or ordering by other authorized persons is required by state law for all DNA identity or relationship tests.
Can DNA testing be done without the mother present?
Yes. A DNA paternity test can be performed without a sample from the child's biological mother. Including the mother's sample is preferred when possible as it improves accuracy.
How long do DNA test results take near Bronx?
Results for a standard DNA paternity test are typically returned within 3 to 5 business days from when all samples are received at the laboratory.
Is DNA testing confidential?
Yes. All samples are packaged in tamper-proof bags and processed at an accredited laboratory with restricted access. Results are shared only with authorized individuals and are never released over the phone.
What type of sample is collected for a DNA test?
The standard sample is a buccal swab - a cotton swab rubbed gently inside the inner cheek. It is painless, non-invasive, and provides the same accuracy as a blood sample.
Will DNA test results be accepted in court?
Results from a legal DNA paternity test performed at an accredited facility may be accepted in court, provided the chain-of-custody form was completed according to laboratory guidelines. Non-legal test results are not intended for court use.
Is DNA paternity testing covered by health insurance?
DNA paternity testing is considered a non-medical test and is not covered by health insurance plans.
Which court handles a paternity case for a Throggs Neck address?
Paternity, child support and custody petitions for Bronx addresses go to Bronx County Family Court at 900 Sheridan Avenue, Bronx, NY 10451. Divorce and separation cases are heard by the Bronx County Supreme Court at 851 Grand Concourse.
