Blood tests

20/10/2025 by Dr Amanda Northridge

Engaging introduction

Nearly one in three adults has an undiagnosed nutrient or metabolic issue detectable by blood testing. At Mayfield Clinic we make comprehensive private blood testing accessible for people in Reading, with fast results and clear interpretation from a named GP. Short wait times. Same doctor continuity. Practical next steps you can act on the day you receive results.

What we offer in Reading

Our private blood testing service for Reading patients covers over 1,500 tests — from a full blood panel and lipid screening to advanced hormone profiles and specialist disease markers. Whether you need routine monitoring, investigation of new symptoms, or targeted testing (thyroid, vitamin D, B12, iron studies, diabetes markers), we tailor the tests to your needs rather than relying on a standard checklist.

Fast access, fast results

Unlike many standard NHS pathways, our private blood test results are typically returned within days. This speed reduces anxiety and allows your named GP to start interventions sooner. Appointments are booked online via the Book now button; members can also book directly by phone or WhatsApp.

Continuity with a named doctor

When you book blood testing through Mayfield Clinic for Reading, you will usually be seen and followed up by the same named GP. That continuity means your results are interpreted in the context of your medical history, medications and lifestyle — not as standalone numbers.

How the process works

1. Book online: use the Book now button to choose a testing appointment. 2. Sample collection: we collect blood at our clinic — Reading patients are seen at our nearby Wokingham practice (Wokingham). 3. Lab analysis: samples are processed by accredited laboratories offering a broad test menu. 4. Review with your GP: results are explained, and an action plan provided.

Local detail

If you live in Reading, you’ll find the short drive to Wokingham straightforward and often quicker than regional hospital waits. Many local patients combine a blood test visit with a stroll along the Thames or a coffee near Reading Station while awaiting electronic results.

Which tests might you consider?

We commonly provide: full blood panel (FBC), renal and liver function, lipid profile, thyroid function tests, HbA1c, iron studies, vitamin D and B12, sex hormones and specialised autoimmune or infection markers. For complex cases we arrange advanced testing and liaise with specialists as required.

Interpreting results — what sets us apart

Numbers on a report are useful only with context. Your named GP will explain what each abnormality could mean for you, whether immediate treatment is needed, and what lifestyle or follow-up testing is recommended. We provide clear, written advice and arrange repeat testing at the right interval.

“Comprehensive testing, personalised interpretation, and practical steps — that’s our approach for Reading patients.”

Costs, turnaround and privacy

Private costs vary by test. We provide transparent pricing at booking. Typical turnaround for routine panels is 24–72 hours; specialised assays may take longer and will be explained at booking. All results are handled confidentially and uploaded to your secure patient record.

When to choose private testing

Consider private testing if you want faster results, more choice in what is tested, continuity with a named GP, or access to specialised assays not routinely ordered on the NHS. Reading patients who prefer quicker diagnosis often find private testing reduces delays and avoids multiple hospital visits.

How to book

Book online via the Book now button. Members may also book by phone or WhatsApp for direct scheduling. If you’re in Reading, please note appointments for blood testing are conducted at our Wokingham practice (Wokingham) and information for local patients is on our Reading page (Reading).

Additional support

After testing, we can provide follow-up consultations, personalised treatment plans, nutrition and lifestyle advice, and referrals to specialists when needed. Many Reading patients appreciate the continuity of seeing the same GP for follow-up reviews, which improves outcomes and patient satisfaction.
