Blood Tests 

Blood tests play a crucial role in diagnosing illnesses, monitoring chronic conditions, and ensuring your body’s systems are functioning correctly. 

At EveryMed General Practice in East London, we offer a full range of routine and specialised blood tests, providing accurate results and clear guidance based on your health needs.

Why Blood Tests Are Important

Blood tests provide essential information about your:

  • Organ function
  • Immune system
  • Nutritional health
  • Hormone levels
  • Inflammation
  • Infection markers
  • Chronic disease status

They help your GP detect early warning signs, confirm diagnoses, and guide the best treatment plan.

When Do You Need Blood Tests?

You may need blood work if you:

  • Feel unwell with unexplained symptoms
  • Have chronic conditions such as diabetes or high cholesterol
  • Experience fatigue, weakness, or dizziness
  • Need routine monitoring as part of annual check-ups
  • Are starting new medication
  • Require confirmation of pregnancy, thyroid levels, or hormone balance
  • Suspect an infection
  • Need pre-surgery or employment tests

Blood tests help identify problems early, often before symptoms appear.

We provide a wide range of laboratory tests, including:

1. General Health Screening

  • Full Blood Count (FBC)
