Our Services

What Can a Blood Test Detect?

For example, a blood test can be used for the following: 

  • Gage your general state of health

  • Assess if you have an infection

  • See how well certain organs, such as your liver and kidneys are working

  • screen you for certain genetic conditions

  • Find out if you are at risk of heart disease

  • Assess how well your blood is clotting

  • Find out whether you are at risk of heart disease

  • Diagnose diseases such as cancer, HIV/AIDS, diabetes, anemia and coronary heart disease

How to Prepare for Your Blood Test

A blood test usually takes only a few minutes and is carried out by our experienced phlebotomists in clinic. Some tests require fasting (no food for up to 12 hours beforehand) — we'll let you know when you book if this applies to you.

After Your Blood Test

Small amount of blood will be taken from the vein so you shouldn't feel dizzy and faint during or/and after the test, but you may do. If this has happened to you in the past, tell the phlebotomist so they're aware and can help you feel more comfortable.

What Happens During Your Appointment

Our receptionist will ask for your photographic ID to confirm your identity on arrival and then you will require to read, complete and sign Blood Test Consent form. 

​

A blood test usually involves taking a blood sample from a blood vessel in your arm. The arm is a convenient part of the body to use because it can be easily uncovered. The usual place for a sample to be taken from is the inside of the elbow or wrist, where the veins are relatively close to the surface. 

​

A tight band (tourniquet) is usually put around your upper arm. This squeezes the arm, temporarily slowing down the flow of blood and causing the vein to swell. This makes it easier for a sample to be taken.

You may feel a slight prick or scratching sensation as the needle goes in, but it shouldn’t be uncomfortable. If you have an aversion to needles and blood, inform the Receptionist on arrival, so they can make you feel more at ease.

​

When the sample has been done, the tourniquet will be taken out, and the needle is removed. Pressure will be applied to the skin for a couple of minutes using a clean pad. Sometimes a plaster may be put on the area to keep it clean.

Your Blood Test Results

​After your sample is taken, it is sent to our UKAS-accredited laboratory and interpreted by a clinician. Most results are ready within 1–3 working days; some specialist tests take longer, and we'll tell you the expected turnaround for your test when you book.

You will receive your certificate by email along with laboratory report and blood test explanation report.

Blood Tests in Cheshire — Your Questions Answered

Do I need a GP referral to book a private blood test in Cheshire?

No. At Easy Medical Centre in Crewe, you can book a private blood test directly — online, by phone, or by email — without a GP referral. Same-day appointments are available subject to availability.

How long does a blood test appointment take?

The blood draw itself takes just 5–10 minutes. Please allow 15–20 minutes in total for your appointment, including arrival, identity verification, completing the consent form, and the blood draw itself.

Will I feel any pain during the blood test?

Most people feel only a slight prick or scratching sensation as the needle is inserted. Our experienced phlebotomists are trained to make the procedure as comfortable as possible. If you have a needle phobia or have fainted during blood tests in the past, let us know when booking and we will take extra steps to keep you comfortable.

How many blood tests can I have in one appointment?

Multiple tests can be combined in a single blood draw — there is no need for separate appointments. Our team will advise which tests can be combined and processed in the same laboratory submission.

What do I need to bring to my blood test appointment?

Please bring a valid photographic ID (passport or driving licence) to confirm your identity on arrival. You will also be asked to complete and sign a blood test consent form before your sample is taken.
