Diabetes & Prediabetes Blood Test

Attend your appointment and one of our experienced nurses or phlebotomists will collect your blood sample. If your test also includes another sample, such as urine or stool, we will provide the necessary collection kit and clear instructions.

Results are typically available within 2–3 working days. Some individual markers may take longer if they require specialist laboratory processing. We will normally wait until the full profile is complete before issuing your reviewed results.

This test may be particularly useful for: Diabetes screening; Prediabetes screening; Family history of diabetes; Annual health check.

This test is commonly chosen when investigating: Increased thirst; Frequent urination; Fatigue; Blurred vision; Family history of diabetes. Blood tests are only one part of an assessment, and results should be considered alongside your symptoms and medical history.
