My opinion about supervised UAs is irrelevant, it is your Doctors choice. I do want to tell you that I have been to many different Doctors (for many job UAs, for chronic back pain, and even my SUB Dr) and most of them do Supervised UAs including my SUB Dr. It is their choice to treat you or not and the SUB Doctor made that clear. It is your choice to either take it, find another Doctor, or find alternative testing methods(blood etc) that are allowed by your Doctor. Blood usually takes longer and you don’t get immediate results but it depends on the testing method(if it is sent to lab or not.) I chose to take the supervised UA. It is your choice.
Whatever you choose, I wish you the best.
