Are At-Home Hepatitis C Tests Accurate? What Should You Know?

With so many blood tests now available for home use, many people in the UK ask: Are at-home Hepatitis C tests reliable? At Mayfield Clinic, we use the TDL Tiny finger-prick blood collection system, ensuring lab-grade accuracy while making testing accessible anywhere across the UK. If you’re experiencing persistent tiredness, mild fevers, or have concerns over past risks, it’s never been easier — or more accurate — to check from home.

How Does the At-Home Kit Work?

Your results are reviewed by UK-trained clinicians and you always have the option for a follow-up appointment if you need further support.

Is It Better to Test at Home or In Person?

Some patients prefer the comfort and privacy of testing at home, while others value a face-to-face meeting with a doctor. At Mayfield Clinic, you have both options. If you would like direct support, you can book an in-person blood test and talk with a GP confidentially.

What Steps Should I Take if My Test Is Positive?

Call to Action: Take control of your health today. Order your kit or book a GP appointment with Mayfield for complete peace of mind.
