Phlebotomy (Blood Test)

The procedure for phlebotomy involves taking blood tests for a range of medical conditions. Your GP will discuss the appropriate tests with you for blood screening and investigation. Our samples are sent to St. James’s Hospital daily and results are returned electronically, directly into your patient record. Finally, you will be contacted by the doctor with your blood test results.

Please note that blood tests are only taken during, or following, a consultation with the doctor. We do not do stand-alone blood tests without follow-up, or prior consultation, with the GP. The fee for bloods (€35.00) is additional to the consultation charge (€65.00).
