Why Have A Private Blood Test?

A blood test is commonly performed to assess your health or determine the cause of specific symptoms. It involves drawing a small sample of your blood for analysis. Getting a test offers a multitude of benefits, such as:

  • Private 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, private blood tests allow you to bypass GP waiting times for both the taking of samples and getting your results.
  • Screening tests are not always available to you on the NHS.
  • 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.

Can you get a blood test without a doctor?

Yes! Absolutely! 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 for blood donations. The blood samples are sent away for testing. When you receive your results, you can discuss them with your GP.

What Blood Tests Do I Need?

Our qualified pharmacists 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

Sexual health may be an important issue for you, so have a blood test for STIs or HIV.

Travel health

Before having travel vaccinations, you can have a blood test to check your existing immunity. If you have returned from a tropical destination, you can also get tests for infectious diseases such as the Zika virus or Dengue Fever.

Check the health of your organs

Private blood tests for thyroid function or the health of your liver or heart are popular choices.

Wellman or Wellwoman suites of tests
