Why Private Blood Tests?
There are many reasons why someone may choose to have blood tests:
- Blood tests allow you to take control of your health. By understanding your health markers, you can make informed and healthy lifestyle choices.
- For routine tests, blood tests allow you to bypass GP waiting times for both the taking of samples and getting your results.
- You may have a specific health reason based on your family’s health history or lifestyle.
- Gain reassurance and peace of mind when you know.
How it Works
Taking a blood sample is a simple procedure carried out by a phlebotomist. A phlebotomist is a person specially trained in taking blood. This could be in the form of samples for medical tests or it could also be for blood donations, for example.
The blood samples are sent away for testing. When you receive your results you can discuss them with your GP.
Cost of Blood Tests
Blood tests come as either single tests or panels of multiple tests. These are free NHS blood test and at no cost to you! Get in contact with us regarding our private blood tests service today to find out more about our blood tests.
Once the blood has been taken, the tests need to be done quickly to ensure accuracy. So, most test results will be available within three to five days.
What Blood Tests Do You Need?
Our qualified staff can help you choose the right blood tests for you. You may be interested in your general health or there may be a specific problem you want to check for.
The types of blood tests we offer are extensive. Some of the most common types of blood tests include:
Fertility hormone tests: if you’re starting a family both you and your partner can have your fertility hormone levels checked.
- Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) or HIV: sexually health may be an important issue for you, so have a blood test for STIs or HIV.

It’s important to remember that if you have symptoms or are feeling unwell, our pharmacists may advise you to see your GP.
