Blood tests and diagnostics

Blood tests taken here six days a week. Results in about 48 hours, explained by a doctor.

First floor · from £45

We take blood on the first floor, six days a week, from 07:30 on weekdays so you can come before work. Samples go to an accredited laboratory by courier twice daily.

Most results are back within 48 hours. Every abnormal result is reviewed by a GP before it reaches you, and if something needs explaining you get a phone call rather than a portal notification.

You can book a panel directly without seeing a doctor first. If you would rather have someone decide which tests you actually need, book a GP appointment or use the Health Check Builder.

Panels from £45. Phlebotomy fee £25 if you are booking bloods only.

Step by step

What happens

  1. Choose your tests

    Either a named panel, a doctor's request, or a panel you build yourself with the Health Check Builder.

  2. Come in

    Fasting tests need 10 hours without food — water and black coffee are fine. We run early slots for exactly this reason.

  3. Results in 48 hours

    Sent in writing. Anything abnormal comes with a phone call from the GP who reviewed it.

  4. What next

    If a result needs action we book the follow-up while you are on the phone.

FAQs

Blood tests: common questions

Do I need to fast?

For cholesterol and glucose, yes — ten hours. For most other tests, no. We tell you when you book.

Can I bring a request form from elsewhere?

Yes, if it is from a registered clinician. We charge the phlebotomy fee plus the laboratory cost of the tests requested.

Do you test children?

We take blood from children over five, with a parent present, using topical anaesthetic cream applied thirty minutes beforehand.

Are results shared with my NHS GP?

Only with your consent, and we recommend it — particularly for anything abnormal.
