*from 1st October We also provide phlebotomy services in Knowsley and Sefton. Go back to the top What will happen at my blood test appointment?Our phlebotomists are specially trained to ensure that your blood test is as quick and painless as possible. They will draw blood from your arm to collect samples of your blood to send to the laboratory for testing.
After your blood sample has been taken, you will be given a pad to put pressure on the site of the injection to help stop the bleeding and minimise bruising. Some bruising may still occur. Most blood tests only take a few minutes to complete.
The results of your test will be sent to the healthcare professional who referred you for your blood test. Go back to the top Latest UpdatePlease click the location tab to find your nearest clinic.
