WHY PEOPLE CHOOSE ONE DAY TESTS FOR BLOOD TESTS IN BIRMINGHAM

We are committed to rapid and reliable blood testing for the Birmingham community, and that commitment runs through every step, from sample collection to result delivery. We strictly adhere to Care Quality Commission regulations and BSI/ISO 15189 standards, and we continuously monitor our testing equipment and procedures. On top of that, we take part in the nationwide BioRad EQA scheme, which adds an extra layer of validation to your results.

We run our own laboratory, so we can create any panel you require.

BLOOD TESTS AVAILABLE AT OUR BIRMINGHAM CLINIC

Our Birmingham clinic offers an extensive array of blood tests, with over 300 biomarkers to choose from. You can select a single biomarker or a comprehensive panel, some of which include over 50 biomarkers. You can also choose tests based on symptoms, or focus on a specific body function such as liver or kidney function, and the Quick Finder helps you identify the ideal test for your needs.

The panels people choose most include the Full Blood Count, the Ultimate Performance Blood Test, which is the most popular test in our range and covers 59 biomarkers, and our comprehensive Ultimate Longevity Blood Test, the largest we do at 74. For a basic MOT, the Essential All Systems Blood Test covers a full blood count, kidney and liver function, electrolytes and CRP.

So with the full-body panels covered, what about hormones and vitamins? If you need help with the sample, or your tests require a venous sample, our phlebotomist draws blood from your vein, which is the ideal route for urgent results or tests specified as "venous only". If you prefer capillary sampling, we can accommodate that. Here is a selection of the hormone and vitamin tests available at Birmingham, with biomarker counts and usual turnaround.

WHAT WE CAN TEST FOR

ULTIMATE PERFORMANCE TEST

This is the most popular test in our range. An ultimate blood screen that reports on a huge panel of 59 different biomarkers, for a detailed overview of your body. Suitable for men and women of all ages.

HOW IT WORKS

The process is simple. Here is how a visit to Birmingham goes.

  1. Choose a blood test - Pick a single biomarker or a comprehensive panel, or choose by symptom or body function. The Quick Finder helps if you are unsure.
  2. Book, or walk in - Book a time and date that suits you, or just walk in; walk-ins are welcome. We offer same-day appointments, and the clinic is open Monday to Friday, 8 am to 2 pm. The £35 clinic charge applies to walk-ins and bookings alike, and it covers sample collection for all your tests on the day.
  3. Come to Hagley Road - The clinic is at 86 Hagley Road, Edgbaston, B16 8LU (view map), and it has disabled access. Please note there is no parking available outside the clinic. A professional venipuncture nurse takes your blood using traditional venipuncture, or a finger-prick technique if you have difficult veins. Children aged 5 to 16 can be tested with a GP private referral letter (details here).
  4. Receive your results - Once your sample reaches our lab it is processed promptly. In most cases your results arrive by email the following day, as a secure, password-protected PDF. Some tests take longer, so check in advance if your results are time-sensitive. If you subscribe, you also get access to the Health Dashboard, which tracks results from over 300 biomarkers and shows trends and patterns over time.

BOOKING YOUR BLOOD TEST IN BIRMINGHAM

Open our Birmingham clinic page, pick a date and time, and you are booked. Adding a mobile number is optional, and we only use it if your appointment changes, never for marketing. If you would rather not plan ahead, walk in Monday to Friday between 8 am and 2 pm.

The £35 appointment and clinic charge covers sample collection for all the tests you have on the day. Blood tests are not included in that charge, so add the ones you want to your basket separately. If you want to keep monitoring over time, subscribing gives you access to the Health Dashboard, with trends across your results and clear, detailed information to support your health decisions.

If you need a custom panel, or you want more information before booking, give us a call via our contact page or email [email protected]. With our own laboratory we can create any panel you require.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Here are some of the most frequently asked questions about our clinic.

How much is a private blood test at Birmingham?

You pay the £35 clinic charge plus the price of the tests you choose. The charge covers the phlebotomist taking your sample for all your tests on the day. Prices are shown on each test page.

What does a full blood count cost in Birmingham?

The Full Blood Count (FBC/CBC) Test is £55 plus the £35 clinic charge, and it covers 15 biomarkers with results usually in 1 to 2 days. If you want a fuller picture, the Essential All Systems Blood Test is £129 and adds kidney and liver function, electrolytes and CRP to the full blood count, 35 biomarkers in all.

Can I test at home instead of visiting the clinic?

Yes. If a visit does not suit you, we offer home sample collection kits, which are UK MHRA approved. However tests specified as "venous only" need a sample taken from a vein at the clinic, and the clinic is the better choice if you need urgent results.

Can I request a blood test without seeing a GP?

Yes. No GP referral is needed, and the tests are the same ones your GP orders. Choose the tests you want on our website, then book an appointment or walk in, and a professional venipuncture nurse takes your sample. The one exception is children aged 5 to 16, who need a GP private referral letter.
