Private Blood Tests

At Fulham Palace Pharmacy, we provide a wide range of private blood tests, including cholesterol and lipid profiles, diabetes (HbA1c) checks, thyroid function tests, liver and kidney tests, full blood counts, hormone assays, vitamin D and B12 levels, food intolerance screens and more. All samples are processed at UKAS-accredited laboratories for reliable results.

No referral is required for our private blood testing service. You can simply book a test that suits your health goals or concerns. If you’re unsure which test you need, our pharmacist will guide you during a brief pre-test consultation.

Preparation varies depending on the test. Some require fasting for 8–12 hours (for example, lipid profiles or glucose tolerance tests), while others can be done at any time. We’ll provide clear instructions when you book, and reminders ahead of your appointment.

Booking is easy—simply visit our website, call the pharmacy or drop in. We offer flexible slots throughout the week, including early morning appointments for fasting tests, and both in-person and online consultations to discuss your needs beforehand.

Yes, we cater for all ages. Our pharmacists are experienced in paediatric sampling and will ensure your child is comfortable throughout. We can discuss any anxieties and use techniques to minimise discomfort.

Most clients describe only a quick pinch when the needle goes in. Our trained staff use fine-gauge needles and best-practice techniques to make the process as comfortable as possible.

Results are usually available within 2–5 working days. You’ll receive a secure email or text with a link to your online report. If any values fall outside normal ranges, our pharmacist will contact you to explain the findings and recommend next steps.
