Blood Tests

The Pathology Unit is a well equipped modern facility providing a comprehensive diagnostic service to all areas of the Hospital and to Consultants and GPs, in London and the South East of England. The Pathology Unit has full unconditional CPA accreditation

Walk in service

The Unit operates a walk in service for all routine blood tests. Please ensure that you have a signed copy of your referral form from your GP, Doctor or Consultant. If the referral is external to the Hospital, please ensure that you provide the address for your referrer so that we can send them the results once processed.

If your requested tests are highly specialised, please contact our phlebotomy team in advance to see if an appointment is necessary.

COVID-19 antibody test

You may self refer for the coronavirus (COVID-19) antibody test only. You will be given an information sheet that assists you in interpreting the outcome and your results will be emailed to you after the sample has been tested.

    Make an enquiry

    If you have any questions relating to treatment options or pricing information, get in touch with us by filling out one of our contact boxes or giving us a call on +44 207 806 4060.

    Our Appointments Team have a dedicated and caring approach to finding you the earliest appointment possible with the best specialist.

    If you are self-paying you don’t need a referral from your GP for a consultation. You can simply refer yourself* and book an appointment.

    If you have health insurance (e.g. Bupa, Axa Health, Aviva), you will need to contact your insurer to get authorisation before any treatment, and in most cases you will also require a referral letter from your GP.

    If you are not registered with a GP, we have an in-house private GP practice you can use. Alternatively, we can suggest the most appropriate course of action for you to take, given your location and individual circumstances.

    *Please note – for investigations such as X-rays and MRIs, a referral will be required. However, we may be able to arrange this for you through our on-site private GP.
