Worried about your child's health but facing long NHS waiting times for blood tests? Our private paediatric blood tests offer a fast and convenient way to get the answers you need, without a GP referral.
There are no waiting lists! We can schedule your child's blood test for the same day or the next day, reducing anxiety and stress for both you and your child. Don't wait weeks or months to find out if something is wrong. Get the results you need quickly and achieve peace of mind.
Our experienced staff are trained in paediatric blood draws, ensuring a smooth and comfortable experience for your child. We offer a comprehensive selection of blood tests to diagnose various childhood conditions. Take charge of your child's health today and avoid the added worry of NHS wait times.
Imagine your child's blood as a tiny messenger system, carrying information throughout their body. A blood test is like taking a peek at those messages. It involves taking a small sample of blood, usually from their arm, and analysing it in a laboratory. This analysis can reveal a wealth of information about your child's health.
Blood tests can be incredibly helpful for parents. They can act as an early warning system, identifying potential issues before symptoms even appear. For example, a blood test might detect iron deficiency before your child becomes tired or pale. It can also be used to diagnose existing conditions, like anaemia or infections, allowing for prompt treatment and a faster recovery for your child. By providing valuable insights into their health, blood tests can empower you to make informed decisions and ensure your child gets the care they need, offering both you and your child peace of mind.
We understand that waiting for a blood test through the NHS can be stressful. That's why we offer private paediatric phlebotomy appointments designed to be convenient and efficient for you and your child.
How it Works:
Call us to discuss your child's health concerns and the specific tests you'd like to book for.
We offer flexible scheduling, including same-day and next-day appointments, to fit your needs.
Our experienced phlebotomists are trained to make the blood draw process as smooth and comfortable as possible for your child.
You'll receive the results promptly, allowing you to discuss them with your doctor and take the next steps.
Please note: While our team is highly skilled in working with children, there may be situations where a blood draw is not possible. This could be due to extreme anxiety or difficulty staying still. In these cases, prioritising the safety and comfort of both your child and our staff becomes our priority. It also ensures accurate results. We'll then work together to explore alternative methods for gathering the necessary information.
Blood tests can reveal a variety of information about your child's health. Here are some examples:
By offering a range of blood tests and flexible scheduling, we can help you get the answers you need to ensure your child's health and well-being.
