Patient Test Instructions

For the majority of tests there is no special preparation required.  Your health care professional will inform you of any specific requirements for your test, for example if you need to fast prior to the test.

Labtests provide a range of specialised tests, which due to their technical nature require special collection procedures or are only offered at specific collection centres.  - Please refer to "Collection Centres by Test Type" for locations
