WHY PEOPLE CHOOSE ONE DAY TESTS FOR BLOOD TESTS IN CANTERBURY

Our Canterbury clinic, like our locations nationwide, is open to anyone who prefers professional support with sample collection, needs fast results, or has tests that must be taken from a vein. Our experienced clinical team makes every visit comfortable and reassuring, and our modern phlebotomy suite and advanced laboratory facilities support testing to the highest medical standards.

So with the visit itself covered, what about the results? The tests are comparable to those offered by your GP, and they are analysed by the same type of fully regulated diagnostic laboratories. All of the biomarker guidance you receive is written by our in-house UK GPs, each with many years of clinical experience. If you want to talk it through first, call 0127 309 2844 and speak to a human.

For anyone who likes to see the credentials, here they are.

  • Regulated - Our pathology laboratory and phlebotomy clinics are CQC registered. Our parent company, Sussex Pathology Limited, holds certificate number 1-14470761199.
  • Quality checked - Every test is supported by rigorous external quality assessment, and our home test kits are MHRA and CE certified.
  • Scale - We test over 100,000 biomarkers every month in our laboratory.

BLOOD TESTS AVAILABLE AT OUR CANTERBURY CLINIC

Our fully equipped Canterbury clinic covers routine and specialist testing, with over 300 biomarkers to choose from. You can test specific biomarkers, such as calcium or oestradiol, or order a comprehensive panel that tests many biomarkers at once, some with more than 50. You can also pick tests by symptom, or check a body function such as liver or kidney function.

The ready-made panels people choose most are the Full Blood Count, panels for diabetes and cholesterol, and our popular Essential All Systems Blood Test. The most popular test across the whole range is the Ultimate Performance Test at 59 biomarkers, and the largest is the Ultimate Longevity Test at 74.

On that same note, the sample can be taken two ways. Depending on your preference and the test requirements, our phlebotomist uses a standard venous blood draw or a finger-prick (capillary) method. The clinic is the ideal option if you would like professional support, your tests need a venous sample, or you want the fastest possible turnaround. Here is a selection of other tests available at Canterbury, with biomarker counts and usual turnaround.

HOW IT WORKS

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

  1. Choose a blood test - Pick a single biomarker, a comprehensive panel, or a test matched to a symptom or body function. The Quick Finder helps if you are unsure.
  2. Book in minutes, or walk in - Book an appointment at a time that suits you, or walk in for same-day testing. 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 Lombard House - The clinic is in Room 204, Lombard House, 12/17 Upper Bridge Street, Canterbury, CT1 2NF (view map). Parking is available at the rear of the building in the Holmans Meadow Car Park. A qualified venepuncture nurse takes your sample from a vein, or by finger-prick where appropriate, if you prefer or have difficult veins. Children aged 5 to 16 can be tested with a GP private referral letter (details here).
  4. Receive your results - Your results arrive by email as a secure, password-protected PDF, usually the same day your sample reaches our lab or the next day. Some specialist tests take a little longer, so contact us first if your results are time-sensitive. You can print your results to share with your GP, and you get complimentary access to the Health Dashboard, where you can see your results as graphs, read the commentary on each biomarker and see how it sits against the reference range.

BOOKING YOUR BLOOD TEST IN CANTERBURY

Open our Canterbury 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, drop 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 plan to test regularly, a subscription gives you discounts on future tests, with home kits or clinic appointments at a frequency of your choice and the option to pause or restart.

If you need a custom panel, or you have a question about which test to choose, call us on 0127 309 2844 or email hello@onedaytests.com. We run our own laboratory and can build any panel you like.
