Patients visit our Watford clinic for private blood testing for many reasons—from investigating ongoing symptoms to monitoring an existing condition or obtaining a clearer picture of their general health.
We can arrange a wide range of routine and specialist laboratory blood tests.
These include:
Standard Blood Tests
Full blood count, liver and kidney function, cholesterol, glucose, HbA1c, iron, ferritin, thyroid function, inflammation markers, vitamins and minerals.
Health and Blood Profiles
General health checks, women’s and men’s health profiles, hormone panels, fertility investigations, menopause testing and metabolic health profiles.
Microbiology and Infection Testing
Testing for selected bacterial and viral infections, immunity and other microbiological investigations.
Allergy Blood Tests
Individual and combined allergy tests for selected foods, pollens, animals, dust mites, moulds and other allergens.
Specialist and Genetic Tests
A range of specialist laboratory and genetic investigations may be available following an appropriate request or clinical assessment.
This is only a selection of the tests we can arrange. If the test you require is not shown, please email us its name or send us your clinician’s request form. We will confirm availability and provide you with the price.
Blood tests can help investigate iron deficiency, thyroid issues, vitamin deficiencies, inflammation, hormonal imbalance and other underlying causes.
We offer hormone profiles for women and men, including menopause, testosterone, fertility and thyroid investigations.
Testing may help assess thyroid function, insulin resistance, cholesterol and metabolic health.
