The Practice offers patients a phlebotomy service with our healthcare practitioner. Appointments are only available until 11:30am as samples are collected by the hospital no later than midday. As appointments are limited, please book in good time if you need a blood test.

Phlebotomy services can also be found at York District Hospital, The Community Stadium at Monks Cross and the Nimbuscare Diagnostic centre at Askham Bar.

York District Hospital and Community Stadium

If you choose to attend the York District Hospital or The Community Stadium these are both walk-in clinics with no appointment necessary but you will need a blood test request form that you can get from the surgery. This will give details of the tests that your doctor has requested. 

Community Diagnostic Centre (CDC)

NHS England have now commissioned community diagnostic centres to carry out a range of diagnostic tests. These tests include ECGs, blood-taking, 24 hour blood pressure monitoring and some breathing tests (spirometry and FENO). Our closest community diagnostic centre is at Askham Bar run by Nimbuscare.

You can read more about the local CDC in Nimbuscare’s CDC booklet here. 

Patients can book an appointment for a blood test by calling 01904 943 690 - there is no need to collect blood forms in advance as long as the practice have added a form to your records.
