Lets Get Checked

Same in my province, they are cutting down in labs and without a legit reason/medical condition - can’t get them done so it is good to know this option is out there. I can’t get another doctor - many people in this province are still on a waiting list for a doc and have to go to a clinic for health issues.
Cheers

How are the shipping conditions for the sample handled? I'm not a blood expert, but I do know that even when doing water samples they need to be shipped in climate controlled packages and any delivery delay that puts it outside of a very specific window will cause invalid results in the testing. I would assume the same for blood?

I just used the service for the first time and everything went very smooth and I am completely satisfied with the whole process.
I asked the nurse that called me with my results about the accuracy & validity of the samples & she told me that it was more or less comes down to a certain time frame that the samples are viable. There is no climate controlled packaging or anything like that. I did not ask straight out what the process is had the sample not made it within the allotted timeframe, wished I would have, i'll ask the next time I use them.

The only issue that I had is that they closed the UPS store in the closest major center to me & I did not find that out until I went to ship my samples. Luckily i'm not working at the moment so I had to drive an hour & twenty minutes to the closest UPS store so that they would make it to their lab in the UK on time. I pulled & shipped the samples on & Wednesday & had the results on the Monday twelve days later.
