We can only see patients with a pre-booked appointment. The only exceptions to this are: 

  • Urgent blood tests:
    • These are available Monday to Friday from 8:30am to 3:30pm (not on weekends).
    • If your GP has referred you for an urgent blood test, you may attend any blood test clinic without a pre-booked appointment. Please note: the blood test clinic opening times at each hospital vary, so please check the times for the clinic you plan to visit in advance.
    • Ensure your GP has sent the urgent blood test request electronically to the hospital. If not, you will need to bring the referral paperwork provided by your GP.
  • Outpatients:
    • If your hospital consultant has asked you to have a blood test during your outpatient appointment, you may visit the blood test clinic without a pre-booking to have the test before leaving the hospital.

Information about blood test appointments for children and young people:

Our standard blood test appointment slots are 15 minutes long.

If your child has additional needs and will require more than 15 minutes for their blood test, please call the service to make the booking and request an extended time slot.
