Hospital Blood Test Requests
Some of our patients are occasionally advised by their consultants or specialists outside of our surgery setting to have bloods done for their condition and will issue them with a blood test form containing details of which blood tests are required. These patients then book these blood tests at our surgery and quite often we are unable to process them due to some of the tests being outside of our remit as a GP surgery, some of the tests must be done within a certain timeframe or setting which we are unable to meet the requirements of.
Going forward, if you have been advised by a consultant or specialist to have bloods taken and been given a blood form by them, the surgery advises you to go to the hospital to have these taken. However, if you do call the surgery to book these bloods our staff booking the appointment cannot determine whether we can successfully process the bloods as they are not clinically trained. You will be advised by our nursing team during your appointment whether the blood test can go ahead or not.
Please consider the above before booking the blood test appointment to avoid wasting your time and our clinician's time.
