Travel Health Blood Tests in Crewe
Whether you're preparing for a trip abroad or have recently returned, travel health blood tests help protect you against infections and health risks that aren't always obvious from symptoms alone.
Before you travel, we can check your immunity status for diseases relevant to your destination and confirm you're fit for travel, particularly for long-haul or remote destinations.
After you travel, certain exposures are worth checking even if you feel well. If you've been swimming in freshwater in Africa (such as Lake Malawi), a schistosomiasis blood test is recommended. HIV testing is advisable if there's any chance of exposure through unprotected sex or unsterile medical procedures abroad. For longer-term travellers, repeating a TB test can confirm whether you've been exposed to tuberculosis since your last check. If you've developed a fever or unusual symptoms since returning, this can also indicate infection requiring investigation.
All samples are processed by our UKAS-accredited partner laboratory, with most results available within 1–3 working days.

Travel Health Tests in Crewe — Your Questions Answered (FAQ)
When should I get a travel health test after returning from abroad?
If you've been exposed to freshwater, had unprotected contact, or are experiencing fever or unusual symptoms since returning, book a test as soon as possible. For general screening without symptoms, testing 2-4 weeks after return is often recommended, as some infections take time to become detectable.
Do I need a travel health test if I feel completely fine?
Some infections, including schistosomiasis and TB, can be present without obvious symptoms. If you had specific exposures (freshwater swimming, unprotected contact, or time in high-risk regions), testing is worthwhile even without symptoms.
What is the difference between pre-travel and post-travel testing?
Pre-travel testing typically confirms your immunity status and fitness to travel. Post-travel testing checks for infections or conditions you may have been exposed to during your trip, based on your destination and activities.
How long does it take to get travel health test results?
Most results are available within 1–3 working days. Some specialist tests, such as parasitic screening, may take longer — we'll confirm turnaround time when you book.
