Hi I have been using this website for about 18 months. Results in my experience always take 7/8 working days. BUT this is if results need reported on by the Dr. I have been very happy with them and the Drs report.

Thank you, really appreciate your reply, I was worried it might be a scam.

Kind regards

Why do you want to have private blood tests? They can be extortionately expensive; often more so than seeing a consultant. I had a quick look at the list and I'm sure I've had them all done on the NHS. Hope you don't have to pay out if you don't need to.

Hi. I had some blood tests done in Nov, I believe, but they were just the basic stuff, now my GP won't send me for more tests again, plus I want to test for a few extra specific stuff.

Hi Lostcat - yes, I've used them a couple of times via that website (in my case, in order to test for thyroid problems which my doctor won't do). It's definitely genuine and not a scam site. :-)
