We recommend seeing your doctor as they can organise the required blood tests for you. They are also going to be your best option if the blood tests identify anything abnormal that require further investigation.
- If you have a good relationship with a GP, it should be possible to ask them if they will write a pathology request for the required blood biomarkers.
- Link to guides showing you have to obtain the required blood test from your doctor
- You will need to speak with your doctor regarding your desire to embark on a programme of preventative healthcare and ask them to support your efforts by ordering the required blood tests. The blood tests are the very common tests done for red and white blood cells, liver and kidney function, cholesterol etc.
- Alternatively, it is also possible to just purchase a private blood test without involving a doctor. The cost of a private blood test is $299. However, you save the GP fees and it also quicker and easier to use a private pathology lab.
- We will guide you through the process regardless of which option you chose to obtain the required blood biomarkers.
