Blood Tests

Blood Tests Service at AR Pharmacy Lyndhurst

When you are unwell, your GP may schedule some blood tests to help diagnose the cause. This is an important part of healthcare provided on the NHS. However, our private blood tests can offer a different route for people seeking information about their own health.

Why have private blood tests?

There are numerous reasons why someone may choose to have private blood tests:

  • Blood tests allow you to get in control of your health. By understanding your health markers, you can make informed and healthy lifestyle choices.
  • Quicker results.  For routine tests, private blood tests are often much faster and allow you to bypass GP waiting times.
  • There may be a specific health reason based on your family history or lifestyle.

How long do blood test results take?

Once the blood has been taken, the tests need to be done quickly to make them as accurate as possible. So, most test results will be available within three to five days.

What blood tests do I need?

Our qualified staff can help you choose the right blood tests for you. You may be interested in your general health or there may be a specific problem you want to check for.

The types of blood tests we offer are extensive. Some of the most common types of blood tests include:

    • Fertility hormone tests: if you’re starting a family both you and your partner can have your fertility hormone levels checked.
    • Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) or HIV: sexual health may be an important issue for you, so have a blood test for STIs or HIV.
    • Check the health of your organs: blood tests for kidney disease or the health of your liver or heart are popular choices.

It’s important to remember that if you have symptoms or are feeling unwell, our pharmacists may advise you to see your GP.
