Blood tests are taken by our healthcare assistants.
If you have routine monitoring blood tests
- For monitoring for a long-term condition such as diabetes, chronic kidney disease or hypothyroidism – we will invite you in for these tests when they are due
- For monitoring safe use of medications such as blood thinners, blood pressure tablets or immunosuppressive medications – we will invite you in for these tests when they are due.
If you are requesting a blood test to check on underlying symptoms, for example constant tiredness, prostate or menopausal symptoms, this will have to be assessed by a clinician first.
If you want to request a blood test
