Phlebotomy (Blood Tests)

Overview

In response to the increasing demand of blood tests on GP Surgeries, GP Primary Choice opened two ad hoc sites to operate in conjunction with GP Surgery demand, allowing for the need for urgent and routine bloods to be carried out within their required timeframes.

Should you require a blood test, and are unsure on your options, please read below:

Where can I get a blood test?

GP Surgery

You can request a blood test from your surgery at any time, many surgeries will carry this out themselves, however you may wish to go to an alternate clinic if waiting times are high, or availability is scarce.
