How it works
Clinic appointment
Having your blood collected by an experienced phlebotomist at one of our partner clinics is a simple process.
Please note you will not receive a test kit in the post as the phlebotomist will bring one to your home.
Check test requirements For some tests, it is recommended that you fast (not eat or drink anything other than water) or stop taking medication/supplements for a period before sample collection. You can check this information by selecting your test on our website and reading the “When should the test be taken?” section.
Drink water
Drink plenty of water in the hours before your blood draw and a large glass 30 minutes prior to ensure you are well-hydrated.
Short sleeves
Please wear short sleeves to your appointment as your arm needs to be exposed for the blood draw.
