If you have been advised to have a blood test following an outpatient appointment in the hospital, or your blood test is urgent, we can still see you on the day but it may not be possible to see you straight away.
Most blood tests only take a few minutes to complete and our phlebotomists are very experienced at taking samples from nervous patients.
Some blood tests require that you avoid eating or drinking anything except water (fasting) or you may need to stop taking certain medication. Please refer back to the clinician who requested your blood test if you are unsure.
