Excellent experience - would use again!
The user experience of searching for specific tests, understanding the details of what was included in these tests and adding them to my basket and paying was seamless. What stood out was the information pamphlets sent out after purchase with detailed instructions about what to do next and any issues to avoid. It felt very personalised and considerate. The test results arrived back earlier than planned and the Dr's notes were very informative. I would not hesitate to use Private Blood Tests again.

Thank you so much for such thoughtful and detailed feedback.
We’re absolutely delighted to hear that the entire experience, from searching for tests to receiving your results was seamless and intuitive.
We’ve worked hard to make sure the website is as clear and user-friendly as possible, so it’s lovely to hear that came through.
It’s especially encouraging to know that the post-purchase information stood out to you.
We always aim to make things feel personal, not clinical, so we’re really pleased the guidance and attention to detail made a difference.
Receiving results ahead of schedule is always a bonus, and we’re glad the doctor’s notes added value and clarity.
We’d be thrilled to support you again in the future, should you ever need us.

I wanted to have a urine culture test…
I wanted to have a urine culture test at this clinic, which I had to pay for. I did not want any other service. On the company's website it costs £95, but it does not say that I need a consultation, which must be paid for separately. I consider this to be misleading advertising. Attention to other interested parties, do not waste your time.

Dear Vicentiu,
I'm very sorry to hear that you feel misled. Please email me at rebecca@bluehorizonmedicals.co.uk with the details, and I will personally look into this matter.
I'm not entirely sure what payment you are referring to regarding the extra consultation fee, but I’d be happy to investigate and clarify.
I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Best regards,
Rebecca

Very disappointing
Very disappointing! My drs won’t accept the results unless they are sent direct from the company. The company won’t send results to the drs even though it would take 1 min to do therefor, this whole process is useless. I do not recommend this company to anyone wanting blood tests.

Reply from Private Blood Tests
We’re really sorry to hear that your doctor won’t accept the results directly from you.
We completely understand how frustrating that must be. Unfortunately, due to data protection regulations, we can only send results directly to the patient, but we always encourage patients to share them with their healthcare provider in the format provided.
In most cases, a printed copy of the results should be acceptable for your doctor, as they contain all the necessary details, including the laboratory's information.
It may be worth checking with them again.
Additionally, it’s worth noting that around 90% of the time, we use the same accredited laboratories as the NHS, so the quality and reliability of the results should be no different from those issued through standard healthcare channels.
We genuinely appreciate your feedback and understand how important a smooth process is when it comes to blood testing.
If there’s anything else we can do to help, please feel free to email rebecca@bluehorizonmedicals.co.uk
