In a word, yes. Do they? In a word, no.
To be fair, though, it is often not the doctor who is to blame, but the laboratory! Lab technicians, it appears, can actually ignore the doctor's request, but I blame the doctors for allowing them to presume to diagnose patients from the blood test results without ever seeing the patient.
If you have trouble getting your T3 tested, then there is always private testing:

They are all good but only Blue Horizon offer home fingerprick tests. I have used them several times, it is always quick and reliable. You can get a discount too if you go via TUK.
