Blood Test & Scans » Newcastle Health - Private GP Clinic

BLOOD TESTS

We use a local hospital as well as a private laboratory that allows us to undertake and process any type of blood test. We offer blood tests that your regular GP surgery does not have access too.

We will guide you as to which blood tests we feel are required in able to come to a diagnosis but it is still up to you as to wether you want us to take and process your bloods or if you would rather go back to your usual NHS GP and ask them to do it.

We are happy to take any blood test you want us to take. It may be that your own GP does not feel a particular blood tests is required but you would still like it done. Your GP may not feel it is cost effective to undertake annual screening of your cholesterol or sugar levels but we would be more than happy to undertake blood test monitoring on an annual basis. Which ever blood test or investigation you want, Newcastle Health are at hand.

SCANS

We offer ultrasound scans, echocardiograms (ultrasound scan of the heart), CT scans and MRI scanning across various locations in the north east of England including the Nuffield in Jesmond, Spire Washington, the Newcastle Clinic as well as NHS sites across the north east.

If we feel a scan is necessary in order to come to a clinical diagnosis we will explain the pricing and if you would rather see if your own GP can organise it then we will leave that decision up to you. One of the benefits of going through Newcastle Health is we can offer rapid imaging rather than waiting a couple of weeks to see your own GP and then several more weeks in getting an appointment for your scan. It may be that your own GP does not think the scan is needed or wants to wait to see if your symptoms just settle; here at Newcastle Health we are happy to organise any scan you want.
