Cancer Checks

Now Available!
A New Blood test designed to screen for the presence of over 70 different Cancers.
You will have counselling with a GP first then a blood sample will be taken afterwards.
You have to be aged over 40 (or over 35 if you have a strong family history of any cancers).
This is not suitable for those who have already had cancers looking for recurrence, only for those never diagnosed with cancer. It also doesn’t replace national screening campaigns.
The results take Three weeks and we will arrange a consultation if required to discuss the results further.
Check out our blog in the Newsroom for more information.

We offer a wide range of blood tests and investigations, including commonly requested tests such as CA-125 and PSA, alongside many other specialist tests.
Our laboratory network gives us access to more than 10,000 different tests, so if you are looking for a particular screening or diagnostic test, we may be able to help.
Some tests, such as CA-125 and PSA, can form part of an assessment for certain cancers but are not, on their own, diagnostic tests for cancer. Our clinical team can help you understand whether a particular test is appropriate for your individual circumstances.
Looking for a specific test? Please get in touch with our team and let us know what you are looking for. We will be happy to help you identify the most appropriate test and explain how to arrange it.

There are a wide range of genetic tests available to assess whether you may have an inherited genetic predisposition to certain cancers and other health conditions.
These tests can look for specific inherited gene variants that may be associated with an increased risk of conditions such as breast, ovarian, bowel and prostate cancer.
Genetic testing can be particularly relevant if you have a strong family history of cancer or if certain cancers have occurred at a younger-than-usual age within your family.
A genetic test cannot tell you with certainty whether you will develop cancer. Instead, it may help identify whether you have an increased inherited risk, which can allow you to discuss appropriate screening, monitoring or preventative options with a healthcare professional.
We have access to a wide range of genetic and specialist tests. If you are considering genetic testing, please contact our team to discuss your requirements and the most appropriate test for you.
