I got some private Thyroid tests as the GP wouldn't do these. I chose to do my blood test at home using a finger pr*ck to collect the blood. The test arrived quickly. Instructions were good and there was no problem getting a sample. I took the sample in the morning and sent it off on a Wednesday. I heard nothing further until my results arrived the following Monday. It would be useful to get an email saying "got your sample" or "in the lab".

The results were helpful, but I have no idea as to how accurate they would be. My concern is that you are at the mercy of Royal Mail. I am not confident that if my bloods had been delayed that I would not have been charged for another test. Probably try another provider next time.

Blue Horizon Medical
Upon deciding that having a blood test was a good idea, I shopped around and picked Blue Horizon Medicals.
On 30th December 2021 I paid for one of their Core Wellman test kits including an appointment with my local BMI hospital to draw blood. It arrived quickly with the instruction to phone my nearest BMI to book an appointment. All seemed above board as I had received a A4 sheet called BMI Phlebotomy Passport, which read at the bottom “Please Charge Blue Horizon Medicals, Not the Patient" It included a payment code.
So off I went; Handed over the test kit and the paperwork to the nurse and she took my blood. She then gave it all back to me to return to Blue Horizon. It seemed a strange thing to do, but having never done it before thought it must be ok. So I went to the post office and sent it off.
A while later on 14th January 2021, I received a report telling me that there was something wrong with the labelling so the lab couldn’t do the test, so it was going to cost more money. My immediate thought was “This is a Con” so I sent back an email, pointing out that I had paid for a professional service, and expected just that. It wasn’t paying any more!
Blue Horizon agreed to send me another kit: It never arrived. So I kicked my wounded pride at being ripped off and forgot all about it.
Then on 20th June 2021 I received a demand from Circle Health Group (BMI) together with a copy invoice for the visit I made to their hospital.
After loads of calls and emails with Circle Health Group and finding Blue Horizon don’t have a phone number and do not reply to emails, Today, (21months later) (16th September 2022) that according to Circle Health Groups business services department that Blue Horizon don’t even have an account with Circle Health Group. So I paid my bill and licked my wounds.
A few years ago, Blue Horizon were good, and my wife used them a few times and was happy. But they are not so good now!

Getting surgery in Europe and they insisted that I obtain a negative mrsa test in the UK before I travel. Ordered a kit, it took 4 days to arrive, I posted it back and obtained the results around 2 days later. The only gripes I have are small ones. First the kit is meant to arrive in 1-2 days. Second there was a little red card in with the kit advising me to read the instructions before I collect the sample. Only problem was there were no instructions. Having said that the test was pretty straight forward. I had seen some bad reviews online for this company so was expecting the worst but it was a relatively straight forward process, no major issues.
