Occupational Health Blood Test
Occupational Health Blood Tests
We conduct a wide range of private blood tests in our private vaccination clinic at Woodhouse Medical Practice.
We also provide home-testing kits or postal kits, which you can post directly to the laboratory.
These may include the following:
- Checking antibody levels after a course of vaccinations such as hepatitis B.
- Occupational health screening prior to starting work in a clinical setting e.g. Measles IgG, Varicella IgG.
- Disease outbreaks
- Medical electives
- N.B. The list is not exhaustive and we are happy to advise you on a number of other blood tests available.
Do I need a GP referral to use this service?
No. Patients are able to self-refer to this service. However, we do require your GP contact details so they are provided with a copy of the test results with your consent, and further testing or treatments can be arranged. If you don’t want your GP knowing your test results, please speak to our healthcare professional about this.
Home blood test-kits vs clinic testing
We provide private blood tests as home-testing or postal kits or you can attend our clinic.
We use accredited laboratories for all tests.
There is a wider range of blood tests available within the clinic setting, however if you prefer the convenience and privacy of having the test within your home then a self-collection test kit may be more suitable.
If the test is not listed below, you can email our clinic with your request at: [email protected]

We can conduct a hepatitis B screen and provide you with the results within 3-4 working days.
If you only require a test to determine your immunity after a course of hepatitis B vaccinations, we recommend you having a blood test 1-4 months after completing the course. This is strongly recommended for all healthcare workers and high-risk occupations. This is to ensure you have developed the appropriate level of antibodies after completing the course of vaccinations as not all patients respond after the first course is completed.
