No two people are the same, which is why we don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach to testing.

​

Following a consultation, we can create a personalised assessment package tailored to your symptoms, concerns and health goals. This may include blood testing, cardiovascular and metabolic risk assessment, health screening and personalised lifestyle recommendations.

Phlebotomy Services

​

We offer professional blood sample collection for patients who have testing arranged through another healthcare provider or laboratory.

​

Before booking, patients should check with their provider that samples can be collected externally and confirm any specific requirements relating to sample handling, packaging or transport.

Our phlebotomy service is suitable for many private healthcare providers, specialist clinics, occupational health providers and laboratory testing services.
